I drew a tag!!! MT Mtn Goat
« on: June 17, 2014, 01:01:00 AM »
Well, I can't say I have the bonus points invested as some others, but I finally drew a goat tag. I drew for the 150 area which is nestled right in the middle of the BOB.  Already scouring maps and planning my scouting missions.  

Everyone is asking me what I am going to use.  Even my father told me to bring the 0-6 just in case.  But I'll eat tag before I shoot one with anything other than my longbow.  

I guess as other have, I'll run a report of my missions to the wilderness.  The hunt of a lifetime is here.  I hope it all comes together.  Excitement and anxiety are at an all time high!!!

Congrats on a great tag! Love your attitude on the weapon choice. All or nothing- no regrets!  You will make the best of it and have a great hunt regardless of the outcome. I for one will be following your story to the end!

Congratulation,
As I will in all likelyhood never hunt goats, I am very much looking forward to reading about your quest. I would like to hear it all - gear, daily trials, and pics , pics, pics please.
Thanks,
Gary

2X what Whip said. "All or nothing-no regrets". Total commitment. This is a hunt that is tops on my list. Can't wait to hear how it's going.

Sounds like I might be heading in next week.  It's still kind of early regarding snow in the mountains, but this is one part of the BOB I haven't been in yet.  If anything I can start to find good camp spots.  I also have some good buddies who work back there on wilderness trail crew and packing.  

Trying to figure out weather or not I want to drag my wall tent back there.  I'm lucky enough to have a good work schedule.  I climb cell towers and was already planning on having Sept Oct off.  I also rock climb A LOT so I feel good and prepared for running some ridges!

Here is a few pics.  One of the 2-piece Whip I'll be using, astring of goats I saw in another range, and training.

Congratulations and good luck!

Your post made me check the status of my drawing for a Bighorn Sheep permit in NW Montana.

Shucks...unsuccessful.  Oh well, it was worth the price of applying just to dream a little since I applied in April.
