Shooter or not
« on: October 08, 2014, 05:13:05 PM »

I let him go this morning!!!  this is a extremely large body goat that I think is just a tad short on length. One good thing is that he is haired up with beautiful chaps .  Give me your thoughts

Still looks short haired to me maybe?

I think he's not big enough, but I'm far from a goat guy.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

He does have a big body. his glands are very swollen maybe making his horns appear smaller than they are. If its good to you and your happy. Shoot!

Can't wait to see the ending to this story.  Hope you get a dandy.   :tup: 

I don't have that kind of self control  I think I would have shot the one pictured....he looks pretty good.
