HuntingNet.com Forums - Tipped over a nice one today!

Goat that is!:D

What a hunt today, this guy had about 25-30 does in his harem. I made a 1 1/2 mile stalk around the backside of them as they fed along a hillside. Popped up the decoy, they were about 85 yds away and here he came full bore! I had my single pin set at 40 yds, so I counted in my head 70, 60, 50..I dropped the decoy and drew at the same time kinda I think! He slowed and turned broadside walking thinking, now what the hell??? And that was when I let loose with my arrow. It hit him a little back since he was walking fast I suppose. But that mechanical broadhead I shoot rips a big hole in em. He made a 150 yard death run circle in front of the girls and tipped over! I left him lay and ran into town to get my little guy out of school to come help me field dress him and haul him home.
Before I left for work I threw the tape on him quick and he grew a little from what I thought he'd go "that's always nice!" I had right at 16.5" high and 16" wide, my best goat to date! Thanks to my brothers for telling me about him, they'd saw him one day while they were haying this past week. The 12th is my lucky day, I think I've taken 3 bucks now on this day. Seems the rut just explodes about this time!
Good luck this fall!

Bad cell phone pics, sorry.

Another look at him, yep I'm a happy camper tonight!:)
