With their 10% rule and shrinking tag totals, I gave up on them.

Post by: Scrotus on June 18, 2013, 07:00:30 PM: That's a awesome draw...........
Little further to travel than the Naches, and you drew a non res goat tag, should get a Wa. Goat tag this year to then...................Ya right fat chance.... 4 points, how many you have here?????
Title: Re: Woot! Woot! Drew Montana Goat tag!!
Post by: norsepeak on June 19, 2013, 11:57:18 AM: have 12 pts here... but the unit I drew has more goat tags than our whole state!
Title: Re: Woot! Woot! Drew Montana Goat tag!!
Post by: idaho guy on June 19, 2013, 12:25:49 PM: congrats on your tag if that is the unit I am thinking about it also has an unlimited tag sheep hunt that i did 20 some years ago. It is an awesome goat area(you probably already know that) I seen some nice goats on the sheep hunt and have some freinds still living in mt that drew the goat tag. PM me the unit and I might be able to share some intel if you need it.

Post by: tlake on June 19, 2013, 02:43:35 PM: I have hunted sheep in the Spanish Peaks area. On the right side headed south out of Bozeman, North of the ski resort. What unit are u in?
Title: Re: Woot! Woot! Drew Montana Goat tag!!
Post by: HUNT on June 19, 2013, 02:47:21 PM: I believe that's in his area. Gallatin
Title: Re: Woot! Woot! Drew Montana Goat tag!!
Post by: tlake on June 19, 2013, 02:53:53 PM: That is east of where I hunted.

I believe that's in his area. Gallatin

Actually Spanish Peaks is its own goat unit. I am assuming from what he said (Gallatin Rang) that he drew 314. Cedar Mountain and Lone Mountain are in the Madison Range unit.

Title: Re: Woot! Woot! Drew Montana Goat tag!!
Post by: norsepeak on June 19, 2013, 09:45:02 PM: Yep, the Gallatin range, unit 314. Looks like fantastic goat country. Been talking with a guy that lives in the unit and knows it well, so should be a lot of fun.

Post by: norsepeak on July 03, 2013, 10:35:48 PM: Thanks Pete. I guess after the last 6 years of going 0 for 5 states, the tag gods finally got tired of me whining to them so they gave in and dropped some awesome tags on me. Gonna be a busy fall, but what a good problem to have... :tup:
