Montana Mountain Goat- at wits end

[Gerald Martin]

You probably don’t want to hear it but I have been on two hunts that ended with dead billies within the exact frames of two of your pictures.

I don't know @Gerald Martin, that would be exactly what I would want to hear

Get it done; legit rooting for you dude. Nothing worth it is ever easy.

You’ve got this. Breathe it in. Everyone is kicking ya in the balls, but only because they genuinely want you to have a successful comeback story. Pulling for ya man. The discomfort will only add to the satisfaction of pulling it off. All the other stuff in life will still be there when you get back.

Bridge sucks.....unless you make the pup bring some beer.

Wednesday is the day to kill a goat. Pack it out Thursday. Drink beer and eat mozzi stix at the Thirsty Turtle on Friday as the snow falls on the mountain.

They do have some solid burgers and fried cheese.

I’m going to sound like an idiot here which I am. I have no experience goat hunting. Do goats winter right where they live the whole year? I would assume so.

Just in case anybody missed it - this is
MT GOAT AREA 329

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. You gotta dig in deep and find that drive partner. You can get in there and get one! Put lifes priorities aside for yourself and GET BACK IN THERE

50s coming for an extended period. The billies are getting a fine winter beard growing. CMON MAN!!!!

7 years later here we are again

Some do and some don't. Some will move down to the lowest available habitat, which in some cases might be within half a mile of the road. At least that is how it is in the several units that I spend time in. Others will stay high where wind blows the snow off.

When someone mentions sleeping pills to help sleep in the mountains I always think of the hunter a while back in Idaho that woke up with a black bear licking his head.

A sleeping hunter in Idaho woke up to a black bear biting his head

Stephen Vouch, 29, reached behind his head and felt it was wet. He yelled when he realized a bear was biting at his head.

This is the kinda guy that draws again after coming out of the penalty box you wait

I think that he's going to be redeemed by posting a Giant - However, he will likely forever be known as the shanker.

Seriously though, it's' your tent rip it up if it makes you feel better! I chose not to shoot a doe at last light last week and have been kicking myself for it, until I read this. Thanks for posting!

Today is looking like a hell of a day to go goat hunting. Cold sure, But nice and clear.

Ive finally found the source of all of the tent shanking comments! I was lost . I hope he gets to fill his tag. Ive never had a OIL tag or even close, so I tend to root for those who do. I think all of us have been burned out on a hunt a some point, hopefully he gets his head on right and does the tag justice! Kill a big one, man!

My cousin managed to tag her MT mountain goat, in November. Very proud of her, she put in lots of miles and got it done - without shanking her tent.
