2025 mountain goat meat pole

[diamond10x]

Oct 2 Billy. Fell a good long ways and busted a tip. Have really become addicted to these animals.

I didn’t see a thread for everyone to post this years mountain goats, and I don’t think my hunts deserve their own threads.

I’d love to see everyone else’s billys.View attachment 941803

Is the blood from a head shot or from a tumble after the shot?

That is blood from a headshot. He didn’t move at all from where he was bedded when I shot him.

It was 450 yards or so through open air with wind that was hard to judge. I opted to undercorrect for wind drift and try to wait for a gust to die off before shooting. The bullet drifted more than I had guessed it would and entered behind his eye, traveled down the top of his neck, and popped out the shoulder.

I got mine in Northern BC with Milligan Outfitters. These guys are great and they put up with a guy that really struggled up there. About 40 minutes into the pack out I broke my tib/fib and had to be airlifted off the mountain the next day. It was a rough night on the mountain and I probably would not have made it off without Bobby, Logan and Bob. These guys were put into a bad situation and rose to the occasion. Thanks guys!

Awesome goat. Bob and Bob are the best out there for goats.

Did you know it was a nanny when you took it?

I've spoken with a few people who took nannies this year and they were all uncertain of the sex of the animal that they were taking. Everyone who took a billy knew they were taking a billy. No one has knowingly taken a nanny.

For this one yes. I watched her for about an hour, and saw her squat. She ended up having 7 in horns and I was very happy with her coat. This will be the last time I do a goat solo, I shot her at 360 yards on a high angle shot, and she dropped right there. Took me two hours to get to her, and four hours to get back out. Was almost a bit too much by myself, but made it happen

If you knew it was a nanny, why did you shoot it?
