Mine tumbled about 6” to its death.

" 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

We really didn’t have a plan beyond shooting a goat. Had to wing it after that. I’m guessing that was the Blanchard plan as well. Kill some goats and then figure it out from there.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

It was a wild week.  It was everything we expected it to be in that it was nothing like we expected it to be :chuckle: meat and cape is in the freezer and gear got put up last night after a long day of traveling.  I'll get to story telling and picture posting tonight after I get done with this Monday work crap :'(

Weird thing about Alaska Mountain goats is apparently they are made out of salmon and not red meat  :chuckle:

haha no unfortunately not enough time for that and no salmon runs right now.  My uncle is a commercial fisherman who likes red meat and I have an elk and 5 deer in my freezer but no fish.  It was a match made in heaven :chuckle:
