Lance Report post Posted October 13, 2007 Sweet sunset pic! Nice goat! Love the ones that lean forward like that! Looks like their goats got a little thicker hair right now than our desert goats. Lance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shortpants Report post Posted October 13, 2007 Once again, you are a god with a camera. The pics are as impressive as the goat and that's a very impressive goat! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
COOSEFAN Report post Posted October 14, 2007 Thanks guys! I love them 'Lopers, they are "almost" as gorgeous as a Coues! The knee pads do help a bunch and I was excited to put some wear n' tear on mine! I need to get some camo ones though so they don't stand out so much in the pic's. The goats up in Montana definitely have thicker and longer hair than our desert goats, and I swear the head on this guy was huge! As far as the shot, I was very surprised he didn't do the traditional "'Loper backflip", but as I mentioned, my shot was left of where I wanted it and popped the "air bags" instead of the shoulder. Taking a 'Loper spot n' stalk with a bow was always my #1 dream, but once that was accomplished, my new goal was to have a nice buck in the crosshairs of my rifle.....now I've got that itch scratched too and I'll never forget it! Thanks guys, JIM> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

COOSEFAN Report post Posted October 14, 2007 Thanks GH, but I most definitely have plenty of itches left to scratch! I just barely broke the surface by scratching this last itch! This is why I'm sort of afraid to participate on the sheep hunts this year.......I don't need that itch to start itchin' any worse than it has been the last 20+ years!!! Gino's already warned me about that "Sheep Itch" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Rabbit Report post Posted October 18, 2007 Jim, Nice lopes and pics as usual. Better scratch that sheep itch when you are enabled with young legs and lungs. You can always work till you die to pay off the hunts. Or just sell off the daughters like GH Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
