Just North of White Deer Texas.

.270 and 130 grn Accubonds.

The goat is right at 14" and just under 75".

To all that I shared this past weekend with, a lifetime memory.
Thank You

Ted

I burned up some ammo on a dog town with my new friends and had a hoot!!


Another great goat that we saw


The lay of the land. See the goats on the far hill?

That's a nice goat. Conglads. You'll hunt a long time in WY or CO to do any better. Hop[e you do a shoulder mount-----they are the prettiest mount there is IMO. CB

Congratulations on a nice un: and I like picture heavy! Sorta brings back memories of my own.

I didn't know a 270 was "enough gun" for PD's but looks like it will work in capable hands.

God Bless, Louis

Good looking goat.
FWIW I wouldn't be handling those Pdogs too much. They have fleas that carry the Black Plague.

I love it when folks attach pictures to their posts. A pic is worth a thousand words.

Great hunt!

Great goat, and great country. I'd love to hunt anything along the Canadian. My great-grandfather had a ranch near the Turkey Track south of Stennett in the late 1800s. The place calls to me.

Ted,

Nice goat but he's sticking his tongue out at me. Highly disrespectful. Glad you had a good time in the panhandle. It was a pleasure assiting you. A client just sent me a pic of his 12 year old daughter's antelope taken just after your hunt. They were very happy.
