Congrats on a very NICE Goat! The mount is just beautiful! Was this goat taken archery? I noticed the black spot/hole just behind his left shoulder.

Thanks everyone. I'm pretty pumped on it. Sneaky Pete... I took him with a rifle but that patch you mentioned was one of my big indentifiers. I was actually after that particular goat. There's a write up out there, Western Hunter but I'm not sure if I can get a link to it on here. I'll give it a shot.

Great write up MONTANA! Thanks for posting the link, I was having trouble finding the story. After reading about your goat hunt, I can't wait until September! I like the point you made at the close of your story about "THE HUNT"

Thank you. You encouraged me to dig it up and with it coming home, brought back some great memories... These special hunts are just that. Memories to last a lifetime.
