Here I am finally got my TG account! WOW what a rugged hunt! Still bruised from head to toe! Being a compound junkie and real new to shooting "meatstick" my legends bow, this was my first hunt. I was told this is an EASY hunt your gonna LOVE it! Lemme tell ya ... there was not much easy about this hunt! So early saturday morn all having coffee and getting around... I hear the "veterans" say "animals! Right over there!" I panicked! Grabbed my gear (all but snacks and water) yelled to my BF animals hurry lets go! and hit the trail with my cuz, his wife and can't tell you who else. ? Never looked back for my man. They sent me up a hill all the while the goats in my sight. End up loosing everyone and out of nowhere here comes BF busting out of the brush (random). So we head on up the road and I show him the goat location. So we head toward them. We run upon Keoki (another hunter that actually knows the layout of this land). He helps formulate a stalk which leads to BF getting nothing but a view of about 7 head shots. Off we go again to find them. Which then leads to Keoki going down and doing a push to us. So I set up (realizing I am not in the best position). I get up at the last moment and back up to some bushes when I look in the direction I am backing what to my wandering eyes should appear? A Rambouillet that has been there for maybe over a year!! Yes this old guy has evaded broad heads and bullets! At about 20 yard from me... Torn is what I was.. hmm lemme see? Spanish Goat or this adorable trophy creature? Yeah I stayed in the hunt and went for the spanish. What can I say... loyalty. So all of the sudden I hear BAAAH! OH God here they come! Knowing there are only two coming over the hill I get ready, 1, 2, 3, at full draw, 4 goats? SWACK! OMG!? I did it! I made the shot! 5, 6,7th goat come over the hill. They run into the brush and about 2 hours later I got my goat. Climbing over and under brush, falling about 3 times. Spotting this guy at maybe 20 yards more than once from under the brush but no blood. I had to make sure this was the one I had shot so I did not buy 2 of the same goat. Tried several times to justify Spanish Goat and Rambouillet in one hunt(Nobody was willing to loan me there american express). As afraid as I was to try it, actually ate some of it last night (drum roll please) It was amazing! After a few days in a brine tasted great! I have pics but not sure how to post yet. Hope you all enjoy reading this as much as I did living it!
