Well, the stories suspense is leaving me at a loss for words, so...  :banghead:    :banghead:    :banghead:

Tom was to my left and I was bending over with my head in the cover. I'd left my feet planted away so I would have clearance to shoot by just straightening up from the waist. The one I wanted was only 15 yards away now........then one of the nannys spit.....and spit again. This alerted the whole herd, and the one I wanted perked up to see what the problem was.

My 'Billy' started strutting to the right to see what the fuss was about, and just as 'he' was about to present a perfect broadside shot, the herd started to skeedattle.....as did my 'Billy'.

'He' started galloping as he entered the wide open terrain quartering away. All I remember was swing drawing, and the next thing I remember was watching my arrow intercept 'him' just about perfect.


My prize only made it about 30 more yards or so, and collapsed by a tree in plain view.

       


So, I hunted hard, enjoyed camp, and I got to pack a goat off the mountain.

     

What more could a man ask?...even though my 'Billy' turned out to be a big Nanny.

Tom 'Kid Kryptonite' Phillips congratulated me, and said he'd help gut it and take pics, but I told him I had a tripod, and to go hunting......and a hunting he went......I'll let him tell his story.

Terry,

Way to get this thread started.  I don't want the stories from the first hunt to end until the second group is home.  That way I can enjoy this read for at least ten days.....What am I thinking, once Lamb starts telling stories it will last well over two weeks.

Thanks for letting us come along with you vicariously!

Terry, That's cool man    :thumbsup:    :notworthy:

Did you bring her home(cape and horns)?  Do these goats stink like domestic goats?

 Love the "packin' out" pic     :clapper:

Well done my friend

Terry good story cool pics to go along with it. But i have to ask how the heck can you stand to wear sneakers in that terrain, that would be a little tough on your feet i would think that is unless your  hooves are as tough as that goats.

Well, I'm back in the world of the living again...played some serious catch-up yesterday and more to come monday. But HOT DOG did we have a good time! It was well worth the time spent.

I've got baseball practices and honey-do's today, but will post some pics and get into the story when I get back later this afternoon.
