    2020 Beast the Color of Winter in the Winter

    A few days post return from chasing Mountain Goats in North Coastal BC and thought I'd share a couple pictures.

    The hunt was filmed and I'll be sharing the story on the Beyond The Kill podcast, which I will post links to in this thread as they come available.

    This is my first personal Billy and one that will be etched in my memory forever... not sure I'll be able to look at another early season goat again.

    On another note, if anyone has some pictures of some nice lifesize bedded goats, please post them or send them over. Looking for ideas on bringing this guy back to life.

    Thanks man! He's definitely a special goat. The capes are just as much a trophy as other aspects of these late season goats.

    He's getting CI'd tomorrow but have had a few very experienced people look him over and most concur he's 7. Was almost 10" at 4 years old.. pretty crazy.

    Hopefully the CI doesn’t come up with any, er, funny numbers lol but at 7 it should be very straight forward.
    That growth is nuts! Always amazes when ya first put the glass on those coastal goats. On the flip side I’ve shot some R4 goats at 10+ years that barely or won’t make 9” ha.

    Congrats again, looking forward to the video.

    When I seen the title, all I could say is "oh, oh, oh, oh"

    February goat threads are always the best. Short haired goats... pfft. Getdafackouttahere!

    not life size... but maybe some inspiration
