Very cool to take him spot and stalk... or stalk and spot.   :)   I leave for our annual goat hunt in 11 days! But whose counting.

Great shot placement, and even more awesome is that you took him in the manner you did.  I'm hoping to take one from a blind this year, to stalk up on him--with your son in tow--magnificent.

Congrats! That's a great memory for you and your son  :)

That is awesome, definitely something both of you will never forget!!! You make that spot and stalk antelope hunting seem easy ... anyone who has tried it much knows it is anything but.
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.
