that sucks!
I always joked about if my house was on fire, I'd be grabbing trophies and running out... like what else do I need from the house? material wise that is.... not talking, kids, pets, wives, etc...
I was 100% gonna do a full mount, didn't get a goat though,
believe I was quoted about $5k from my taxidermist.
I thought I'd have his front legs up higher than his rear.... I like that angle/pose.
congrats! I'm real jealous!
after my goat hunt, I want both!
if you already have MOA rifles you love, I see not needing anything new, but if you're looking for something like these 2 offerings.... seem like 2 quality designs.
Is that bow or rifle?
I think having 2-3 buddies help you backpack into an area and setup a camp would help greatly.
I think it would be really tough to solo backpack hunt a goat and then haul it out alone plus your camp, unless multiple trips...
Maybe they're trying to avoid guys drawing 1 and done and not getting back in the system?? $$$$ ??
Part of me thinks, KISS, keep it simple stupid.
What's next, non-res get 5 points since they pay 10x more?
It really only matters for non-res tags let's be honest.
Worse odds sucks for everyone, but charging $3k in 5 plus states simply to apply is a lot.
Really is a debate for hunting becoming Rich vs Avg Joe. Bad odds vs Terrible.
I was gonna post/ask this...
not saying I'm going to get all of the NA29... but one could pretty easily have 29 mounts etc...
with 0-2 kids.... maybe they'd want some of them? not to mention, inheriting many of my father's mounts....
I'm picturing a basement/barn full of mounts one day.... lol.
Really wanting a 7prc myself!
Love that some of these newer rifles have barrels shorter than 26"!
I've see a few offering 22" as well as 24" and 20"
I personally don't planned to run a suppressor... so I'm leaning towards 22"
Let us know what you get and how you like it.
It's been 1 thing after another with this body...
toe/goat last winter/spring, which really had me unable to walk/run train in that way,
Now I've been limping around a couple months with heel pain, turns out it's a bone spur but hopefully can be treated with pills, fingers crossed.
Been...
I'm wondering if there are no random non-res tags issued for moose and sheep this year... if a ton of non-res will stop applying for those species, especially say if they have 10 or less points....??
and heck, looking at the points tables... it looks like a non-res should have about 23-24pts to...
I'll get points in AZ, CO, UT, NV, WY, MT,
I may apply for some tags in NM,
This year is mostly going to be points, next year should be applying for everything.
