WA Mt. Goat Hunt (Bearhunter)

[Bearhunter]

Ok guys its official my info was sent away to the State yesterday by SCI.  I did in fact purchase the WA State Governors Goat tag and am very excited for this up and coming season.  I am chomping at the bit for the regulations to come out so I can see the restructure of the Mt. Baker hunt and find out if they added any more additional tags in other units.  I have always dreamed of purchasing the Governors Goat tag but its been out of my reach financially until this year.  At the SCI convention at the Bellevue Meydenbaur center I purchased a $100 poker card out of a fresh deck and low and behold they draw my Joker, and I won $5K instantly$$$$$$  BIG MONEY BABY!!!!!  Catch was I had to spend it there which was only fair.  I then at that very moment knew that I was going home with the Goat tag unless it went for over $10K, then I would put the money towards a Dall Sheep hunt with one of the Guides there.  The Bidding began, my number hit that $10K mark and it must have been the phone bidders maximum bid as well because thats were it ended!  I did not get to sleep until almost 3:30am that morning after driving home, I was so excited...  Three weeks prior to the SCI Show I decided to change my lifestyle and become a healthy person and get in shape for this upcoming hunting season, so I needless to say this has really keep the motivation going now.  As of today I am down 16lbs and got about another 20 to hit my goal and hope to be there by May.  I have a personal goal for this tag, and if I dont succed I will have fun trying at least.  Two things I know for sure are that my two good friends Alpinehunter and BChaser will be there along the journey with me   Oh ya if anybody was curious I am also known as BillyGoatHunter on here also, which if the Mods want they can destroy that profile.  Sorry for stringing you all along it was just to much fun to go along with all the great comments on the other thread.  Thanks for all the positive input from many friends on here!!!  Ill keep you guys all informed on how the scouting is going...  Oh ya and not a chance I would be caught with old Doyle Moss.... Unless hes got a Chopper
