Goat Hunt With MMK Outfitters

30 June 2007, 18:43

The mid-summer itch to go shoot something was getting worse by the day. A goat hunt was the answer and MMK Outfitters had the solution. They arranged a hunt with Jeremy Williams and 5J near Kose, TX. for a day of sport and fellowship.

Jeremy was a great host. When we arrived he gave us a tour of their lodge and camp area and then took us to the range to check the rifles. Then after the safety breifing we loaded into the truck to go look for some Corsican rams.

The ranch was pretty wet due to the recent heavy rains in the area. A lot of animals were seen feeding on the meadows, senderos and roads including white tail, black buck, elk, and fallow deer.

We all got our rams and then returned to the lodge for lunch and some great hunting conversation.

To be honest we did not keep any of the meat. I have eaten most everything I have killed with the exception of a baboon so I was going to try the goat meat also. I took a cooler with me to carry the meat back. Before the hunt I was told that these goats are very poor table fare and that most people who took the meat home were not happy with it. So I left it there.

The Hunt goes on forever, the season never ends.

I didn't learn this by reading about it or seeing it on TV. I learned it by doing it.

Ryan,

You are not far off on that thought. I am trying to make a 30-06 into a 7x57mm. My plans are to find a Winchester Mod. 70 Left Hand rifle in either 270. or 30-06 and re-barrel it to 7x57 Mauser. The problem is finding a LH Winchester CRF doner rifle. They are all hiding in the deep dark corners of Accurate Reloader's gun safes.

If you see one of these while prowling through gun shops let me know.

Best Regards,
Muletrain

Actually, all exotic sheep (Corsican's are not goat's) taste very similar to lamb. An old ram can taste strong like mutton (old sheep) which I do not care for, but all of the exotics I've tried weren't too bad. Prepared by an experienced wild game cook they are good. Chops and steaks smothered in Chutney or Mint sauce ain't bad at all. BBQ is good as well. For years I was told Pronghorn Antelope wasn't fit to eat. Man were they wrong. Congrats on your hunt Muletrain. You guys did very well. Good hunting, David

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."
