Hey there, cutie. Did you talk him into a discount for letting him take it up to Logan? 
It really looked good in the booth pictures I saw. I got all my African capes back, so it is time to get busy and start mounting. Springbok comes first. David is over there the right now and for the next 10 days, whacking them as we speak!!!!!!!!

Thanks, everyone. I'm impressed with you all remembering this hunt. Yukon is correct, it was the first animal taken with my 300 short. This was in Montana 2003, and the horn length (on the unbroken one) was 9 5/8". Had he not broken the second, he may have squeeked into the book. Nontheless, he's definitely the top ranked in my book as far as difficult and breathtaking hunts I've ever had privilege in which to partake. I think the taxidermist did a fine job of reconstructing the horn, I'd forgotten how impressive he was.......just before he started that long nasty roll into the rocks. I hope to see the story soon in a magazine, it's really a credit to one hell of a guide and friend.
Blank, at least my taxidermy bill is nearly paid off and is probably only 1/16 of yours. ;0 And had I known he was going to Logan, I would have gone along!

Zigga, I am sworn to secrecy on the unit, but I'll say that it was Southern MT. Good judge on the hide, he was indeed taken in late October on the 19th. MTFP aged him at 7 1/2 years.
Anyone know how old goats get, anyway?
LV2- I have no idea where I'm going to put him. I think I need a new house!

Nice goat - good coat on him.
Reviewing the record book from BC and horn lengths - from the photo on the thickness -- I would say the score to sit around 48.5 and squeak perhaps into low 49 and a bit.
Mtn Goats live to an avergae age of 12 yrs in the wild.
(grin - there no such thing as real secrets these days!!!)
