mje1 Report post Posted September 9, 2010 Cool, i thought i was pretty close, glad to hear i wasnt way off.... although for you sake i wish i would of been 4 inches off and he would of been 18" Just kidding, Congrats again glad you were able to take the one you wanted. It is always fun to go watch an animal take pictures video andthen hunt for that exact animal and be able to close the deal. i drew last year after 20 + years of applying and took lots of pictures of my buck and killed him with in 20 of the hunt.... but the hunt was really all those hours scouting and looking.... glad you were able to find and take the one you had spent time on. He will make a great mount and those cutters will make up for what lenght he doesnt have. He's a very nice goat. yea 1 and 27 are parts of my stompin ground, so yea hope we can run into each other some time. were exactly is dry valley.... thanks for sharing tommy I Guess dry valley is west of auger canyon off of road 88 I never knew it was called by that name and ive been going there with Robert for years Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DGCHAWK Report post Posted September 14, 2010 Robert, Thanks for shooting your goat on the first day. I really didn't want to go up to the nice cool mountains to help you hunt do some fishing and chill at the cabin. I had alot more fun sweating my A$$ off in Mesa doing yard work on my three day weekend!!!! NICE GOAT! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pine Donkey Report post Posted September 15, 2010 Not to worry Dave, now that you have the yard work done, we will be at the cabin again on the 8th for Cody's youth elk hunt. You and Josh should come up. The fishing should be better then also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
