Congrats Bridger and way to make it happen dad  :tup:

That is so cool! Thank you for sharing this. Way to go, Bridger! And think of all the years he won't have to spend that $13.50 application fee now....

Great writeup, hunt and pics!  I've tromped around that goat range a little, I suspect I know within a couple miles where you were.  Loved the discussion and decision about the 550 yard shot, this young man has better ethics than many adults!
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Thank you for all the great feedback.  Bridger says he’s going to draw a sheep tag next........😂.  I definitely admire this kid’s passion and optimism!
