[QUOTE="Timnterra, post: 1241952, member: 55944"] This was my daughters first time to go hunting. She was a trooper and it was joy to get to pass along the love of the sport and the heritage of hunting and shooting to the next generation. We spotted him at about 1.5 miles and worked out a plan to get close enough for a shot. Our first stalk got us within 720 yards but I blew the wind call and missed. Most this goat's harem ran off over the hill and headed for the next county, but he stayed behind with about 5 does. They ended up circling down wind of me so I backed out of there and circled back around a couple hills and was able to crawl up over a cactus covered hill to within 500 yds, but I couldn't get a good read on the buck with the rangefinder because he laid down and all I could see was his head. I ended up crawling another 60 yards or so before he stood up and I ranged him at 420 and was able to put him down. There were frustrating swirling winds from 0-15 mph and I ended hitting him back in the gut, but the 7mm 162 amax out of the 7wsm trashed some major blood vessels anyway and he dropped in his tracks. Great day to spend with my oldest daughter. [/QUOTE]
