Oregon Raffle Rocky Goat Tag
« on: July 11, 2022, 08:54:31 PM »
I bought 6 tickets and won the statewide raffle tag.  Never even thought about hunting a goat, but bought a few of each raffle so I could think about what it would be like to draw one.  I am so used to losing I didn't even check the draw results.  I had to have two separate friends call me several days after results were posted before I eventually checked. 

I've been getting more into goat hunting as I research more and getting in shape.  I went last weekend to scout some areas and see what I am up against.  Should be a good hunt and hope to post a video and pictures.  Not going to hunt until September 24th, even though season starts August 1st and goes until November 30th.

Anybody else hunt goat in Oregon and have good stories?  Think I'll go to the Eagle Caps even though the more popular place seems to be the Elkhorns.

You can't see it but this is the face I make when I'm jealous. Congrats to you, goat is my dream hunt. Looking forward to seeing photos and reading about your hunt.

How did the scouting go?

So awesome! Goats are something special. Enjoy the journey. Lot of pressure on a tag like this but be sure and drink it all up.

Congrats!
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

Congratulations!
I too won an Oregon raffle (Bighorn) way back in 1999 with 3 big tickets! I'm sure you'll have an amazing hunt.
I hunted my bighorn in the Eagle Caps & it is one of my favorite spots in the NW. 
I did see goats while hunting for my ram and would be happy to share. Pm me.

Congrats....that will be an epic adventure.

WAIT FOR THE HAIR TO GROW!!!!

If you can help it, don't shoot a September goat. The horns are cool, but let's face it...they're pretty small and not that exciting. The long hair is the real eye catcher.

" 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
