Ask and ye shall receive...another view.
Yah, I've watched the video a zillion times...I definitely was having trouble in the rocks. But I sure am glad I went, and hey, I had the doctor's permission "If I were you, I wouldn't give that up". Just doin' what the doctor ordered!
I am doing a 3/4 body mount, walking around a rock down a ledge out of the corner of my living room.

Predator,
Great goat and beautiful country. Glad you got to make the trip even with the bum knee. I'm afraid my chances for a hunt like that are long gone. Don't know if the old body would allow it.
Congrats.

Very nice. Glad to see success and a smiling face. Now if I ever draw Utah I know someone to call with advice of how to tell them apart and good one from a bad one.
Congratulations!

Thanks everyone! Killbuc, the cutter thinks we'll give it 3-4 months and see if it will heal up. The meniscus tear is still gettting blood supply, so hopefully it will scar up and stay down (although I can still get it caught under my kneecap every now and again , and boyohboy, does that hurt). The ACL is partially torn, we're doing some aggressive PT to see if it will tighten up or not.
BCBoy- You ain't kiddin;, but I think where your goats live is probably much much worse than what I did. I am proud, tho, I still can't believe I did it. Thank heaven for the triathlons I did this summer, or I would have been toast on the first day.

My dear huntress Predator-
I've been waiting to hear about your exhilarating adventures. But I have been trying to do a bit of hunting as well. I got my first black bear in AZ this fall...passed my shot on a coues buck because Bura and I were trying to get his son on his first deer, had a crappy hunt in Illinois. But I stil have a Mexico muley hunt in a few weeks, a Kansas pheasant hunt, archery javelina/deer in AZ...and possibly a kitty cat hunt in NM...just bought a new house too. I move in next week. I'm very happy for oyu and your successes. Lord knows you've been thru a lot with your knee and all. I can empathize with you there. I wish you the best of luck on the rest of your hunts and take care of that knee. I'm not going to do more surgery unless I can't walk anymore. I don't want to get into the habit of being cut on every few years. Take it easy my precious Predator...

PW, I still think you need that one last surgery that will straighten out all your problems, a LOBOTOMY...... Allen Taylor......

God that is a beutiful Goat. I am just wondering where you Shot the goat and how did you haul it out of there. Sorry if the questions seems silly but I am new to hunting and learing!

Hey Predator!
Oh, a MOUNTAIN goat. I though you said a MILKING goat I wondered what all the hype was about.
Sorry for the ribbing. Heard the stories, now I've seen the pictures. Kari and I are very proud of you. That first picture is beautiful, and what country!
and now a note to everyone else drooling over the pictures: I live 3 minutes from the freezer where the MEAT is kept. Jealous? Predator is a lifelong friend and hunting companion. I just wish I had the time and money to be so dedicated.
So Predator, are we scouting for elk on Sunday?
