Conflict Goat?

[Jpmiller]

My hunting partner was a national park ranger for a number of years. He has spent some time in the Olympics and knows alot of people who are constantly around there and there are plenty of big billies around. No reason you couldn't be picky and find a nice goat, just doesn't help the states goal. That's why it think it shouldn't count towards a oil tag.

Why would they cut the tags from 6 total to 3? Seems kind of  contray to the goal of the tag.

The way I read it, drawing this tag DOES NOT affect your points or ability to draw a "normal" Mt Goat tag.

Am I wrong?

No, but if you kill a goat you’re done with your OIL goat ability.

Those Olympics goats won’t have any hair in those seasons either. Another Bummer.

I’m sure there are some stud billies running around over there. That’s exactly what I would do.

When I first read the title of this, I thought I was going to read an article about someone trying to take their service animal, a conflict goat, onto an aircraft or something.  Carry on.

Yes.
















Really, I would hold out for a nice billy. No way I would shoot the first goat I saw on an OIL hunt unless it was the right billy.

The conflict goat hunt does not affect your "normal" goat hunt opportunity, though........   right?


My son drew the conflict goat hunt the year before it became a conflict.

I'm 99% sure that if he killed a goat he is done goat hunting in Washington. I might be wrong I guess.

So reading that, if you draw a Baker tag and don't harvest a goat, can you apply again? I was always under the impression that if you drew one of the normal goat permits, you were done whether you harvest or not.

i believe they changed that a few years ago, no kill and you can re-apply.  Your out!!!!  😬
