[QUOTE="MachV, post: 1074320, member: 93"] Didn't mean to discourage you. As a resident we have better odds at a LOT better areas. With your points its doable but like I said your going to have to work at it a little. I don't mind working for deer or elk but prefer to have fun with goats. I like the Manville area, not a lot of 2 tracks and a lot of hoofing it. The goats we see on public are in the big bowls that make getting close (within a mile) difficult. I would talk to as many landowners as possible, the goats know wide open spaces and property lines better than most can read a BLM map. I would work on that cold bore shot, groups are for figuring out a load, competition and prairie dogs. Your choice of spotting scope will serve you well. Putting a buck to bed from a ways off and getting into position for a shot before daylight using the wind will put you ahead of the others. Goat can be some of the best eating but can also be inedible if not taken care of. If its hot pay attention to getting your goat cooled down. If I am more than a mile from the truck they get boned out where they drop. I carry a couple of frozen quart Gatorade bottles of water to help cool the meat in the pack for the ride back to the truck. Good luck and have fun [/QUOTE]
