Hey Guys,

Got this one finished up today as well. Ryan and I started hunting together last year and have had some great success. This hunt was a super fun one, and we managed to get a really nice haired up billy together last November.

A ton of damage and a super dirty goat, but it came together nice and should look good in his house now!!

I started learning about 4 years ago now. Doing it on my own for just under 3 years.

I need to post pics of my lifesize grizz, habitat work isn't complete yet so I've been holding off. Appreciate the comments!

Thanks man I like the vote of confidence. I'm looking forward to how the conclusion of your hunt goes!

I've got a cool 1/2 lifesize idea for my billy from this year. Just need to get the rest of my critters ahead of it done now too!

wow, looks like he had a bath eh?! whats with the big slice in its jaw?

Just kidding, you did an awesome looking job at preserving that thing. Now that I look at it, that thing is so gorgeous, that I think my wife would even let me hang that in the house............

You'll have to ask Rhyno about that 11" hole. In his defense he was shooting my rifle and the shot was out there at about 300 yards if I remember. Weird angle the goat was at but it sure dropped him in his tracks!

We didn't think the cape was going to be salvageable but got lucky I guess. The pics of the damage are nasty lol

Another great looking job, Trev. Well done. Those late season goats are spectacular.

I'm only kidding. I had just read Ryno's thread about the hunt, I knew about the shot. You did a fantastic job of hiding any damage. I dont see any at all.

Thanks. Did make for some funny jokes over the past year. This year right after he shot his billy that was almost the first thing outta his mouth haha
