Well, I can't say I have the bonus points invested as some others, but I finally drew a goat tag. I drew for the 150 area which is nestled right in the middle of the BOB.  Already scouring maps and planning my scouting missions.  

Everyone is asking me what I am going to use.  Even my father told me to bring the 0-6 just in case.  But I'll eat tag before I shoot one with anything other than my longbow.  

I guess as other have, I'll run a report of my missions to the wilderness.  The hunt of a lifetime is here.  I hope it all comes together.  Excitement and anxiety are at an all time high!!!

 
Good hunting!
Darcy  

Will wait patiently for the hunt story!!!!
Good luck to you.      

jealous here. cant wait to see pics

Congrats on a great tag! Love your attitude on the weapon choice. All or nothing- no regrets!  You will make the best of it and have a great hunt regardless of the outcome. I for one will be following your story to the end!

Good for you!      

Congratulation,
As I will in all likelyhood never hunt goats, I am very much looking forward to reading about your quest. I would like to hear it all - gear, daily trials, and pics , pics, pics please.
Thanks,
Gary

2X what Whip said. "All or nothing-no regrets". Total commitment. This is a hunt that is tops on my list. Can't wait to hear how it's going.

Couple of pics for you Dean.

Sounds like I might be heading in next week.  It's still kind of early regarding snow in the mountains, but this is one part of the BOB I haven't been in yet.  If anything I can start to find good camp spots.  I also have some good buddies who work back there on wilderness trail crew and packing.  

Trying to figure out weather or not I want to drag my wall tent back there.  I'm lucky enough to have a good work schedule.  I climb cell towers and was already planning on having Sept Oct off.  I also rock climb A LOT so I feel good and prepared for running some ridges!

Here is a few pics.  One of the 2-piece Whip I'll be using, astring of goats I saw in another range, and training.  

Congrats!

congrates on the tag ... hope it all comes together for ya, just like in ur dreams!!!

Congratulations on that tag!
     

Now that is what I call quality training. Good luck to you man.

Good luck on your hunt. I look forward to the recap and photos.

Congratulations and good luck!

Your post made me check the status of my drawing for a Bighorn Sheep permit in NW Montana.

Shucks...unsuccessful.  Oh well, it was worth the price of applying just to dream a little since I applied in April.

Congratulations!!!!! I got the 313 tag last year in the Crazies! Hunt of a lifetime! They are such an amazing animal and my favorite animal to hunt.

Very cool, can't wait to watch this unfold! Good luck!
