Mountain Goat Mount

[whiskeydog]

Got my mountain goat back from last year (thread here: https://onyourownadventures.com/hunttalk/showthread.php?271368-MT-Mountain-Goat! )

He was done by Tru-Life in Laurel, MT and is tucked into a nook we have in our stairway. Plenty happy with how he turned out!

Man that turned out awesome!!! The second pic looks like he's staring at you getting ready to leap.

Nice hair. What was the date you got him? Altitude?

I'd love to hunt them some day. Great looking mount!

You need to post the pic where your son added his mountain goat to the display

Got him last year on 9/30 around 9,500'
I was up on the opener and they still hadn't completely shed all their old hair yet. My brother got one a few years earlier in the same unit on 10/25, and his hair was definitely longer, but by 9/30, they were looking pretty good.

Yup...thanks Pops...forgot to add that
So, when I first went looking for the goats, I brought home a stuffed one for my 3-yr old. He's now 4, and decided one day to add his to the "mount"...It's been there for a month and he hasn't asked for it back...

...look to the lower left

Super! IMO mountain goats make stupendous full body mounts. That one is very well done. Congrats.

Very sweet! Great looking mount(s).

Very nice. It looks like a goat! Reading your thread again I sure recognized a lot of the pictures from my hike earlier this month!

I hope mine turns out as good as yours. I guess I need to call my taxidermist, it's coming up on 3 years now since I shot mine.

That's a good looking mount! Congrats!
