Congratulations also to Paul from Wisconsin on this 55” beast of a shiras moose. After seeing a couple nice bulls on the first day, we didn’t see many bulls, just cows for the next 5 days. On the 7th day, we saw this huge bull with two cows and a calf, but when we got closer and tried to call him a bit closer, he wasn’t interested in coming to us, and walked into the heavy bush with the cows. It wasn’t much of a surprise, but we’d hoped for the best. We went elsewhere for most of the day, and then came back in the evening and found him and the cows back out again along the edge of a lake. This time, we didn’t even try to call, but we were able to sneak up to within 50 yards for a great shot, and a superb end to a successful season.

Congratulations to George from Bulgaria on this great billy on the last hunt of my season. On the fifth day, George and his guide Chad got lucky and ran into this goat fairly low on a cliff, and while it did fall a bit, it’s not often you catch a goat at this low an elevation in my area.

Also on the third hunt of the season was Chuck from SD, who had just finished a tough 8 day archery Canadian moose hunt in Alberta that proved unsuccessful. Finally, after 10 days here, and several encounters that didn’t work out, we were able to track down this nice Shiras bull on the last afternoon, and get to 25 yards for the shot.

Congratulations to Lance from VA on this nice billy on the third hunt. Lance was hunting with my guide Chad, and spent most of his hunt staying in a cabin and hunting from horseback. After 3 days of quite a bit of riding and a couple of climbs, they were able to track this billy down on the 4th day.

My second hunt this fall was Cliff from South Carolina. Cliff and his guide Brian worked hard for this billy, spending a few nights backpacking and quite a few hikes that didn’t pan out. Despite seeing a bunch of nannies and kids, I think the billies were still hiding out way up high on the shady side of the mountains after an abnormally hot early September, so it wasn’t until the last few days of the hunt that they started to see them. On the ninth afternoon, they spotted this nice billy as well as a second one together, but it was too late to go after them, so on the tenth and last day, I went along with them in case they needed help packing out. We saw the two billies in the same area and made the climb, finding them on the back side of the ridge we were climbing once we got there. Unfortunately, after the shot, Cliff’s billy fell and rolled about 500 yards down the wrong side of the mountain, and while it did chip the tip off one horn, we were really glad it wasn’t worse. We were all pretty happy there was three of us there to pack the goat back up over the top of the mountain to get back to the truck, and we were able to get the skin finished and salted, and taken for government inspection before Cliff flew home the next day. Congratulations Cliff and Brian on a great finish to a good hunt!

We finished up a great fall season a few weeks ago, and I’m finally getting around to posting some pictures. My first two hunters of the season were both archery hunting from Ohio. Adam and I were able to connect with this great 10” billy on the first day of a backpacking trip, and while unfortunately Bret wasn’t able to get a shot at a goat, he was able to arrow a mule deer in a spectacular location on top of a mountain on the 3rd day. Bret was also in close on a really nice 5x5 elk but wasn’t able to get a shot, as well as chasing a big black bear around. Thanks to my nephew and future guide Trevor for the help on this hunt. Three people packing a goat off a mountain is a huge help.

Thought I’d throw it out there that I just found out that I’ve got a last minute opening for this fall. Dates are Sept 12-21. The way our quota system works, I will still be able to sell this goat hunt in 2026, but I’ve already arranged for a guide and am ready to go, so while it won’t be a huge discount, I”m looking for my 2024 rate of $12,500US for this hunt.

The picture below is for reference from a Sept. 12-21, 2018 hunt.

My last client of 2024 was Jesse from Minnesota, who was hunting for an archery moose. Jesse has bowhunted for goats with me twice, in 2010 and 2014, and was able to take home a fantastic goat in 2014. This was his first moose hunt with me.

We thought we were going to be finished on the first day, when we were able to get out in front of a nice bull, but even though he was talking to us, he wouldn’t come the last fifty yards to get close enough for a shot. We saw quite a few bulls over the next 10 days, and made a few more unsuccessful stalks, before finally connecting with a nice 40 inch bull on the last evening of our hunt.

My fourth hunter on the third hunt was Nate and Jason’s father Bob, and I was able to talk my dad, Don, out of retirement to guide him on this hunt for black bear and mule deer. It took my dad about 15 minutes into the first day of the hunt to find Bob a nice bear, then after about 5 more days of tough mule deer hunting, they were able to connect with a 4x4 mule deer buck in a clear cut. Congratulations to Bob and Don.

Nate’s brother Jason was also here, and he was hunting Moose with a crossbow, guided by my brother Warren. Despite seeing quite a few moose, including about 5 or 6 bulls of different sizes, they couldn’t find one that they could get to come to a call, and unfortunately they were never able to get within crossbow range of a bull.

I was guiding Josh’s friend Nate on the third hunt as well, and after watching a goat for a while on the first day in an area we weren’t able to get to, we returned to the same area on the second day. After a good stalk to get close, we waited and watched for a while before deciding to take the shot. Unfortunately, he went down immediately and hard, and proceeded to tumble about 150 yards down the mountain towards us before stopping. Once we got to him, we discovered he’d broken a couple inches off the tips of both horns and was pretty bloody for pictures, but I’ll put one up with a good view anyway.

My third hunt was a busy one, with four hunters from Arkansas, so I’ll break it up into a few different posts so I don’t put all the pictures in one. First up is Josh, who Chad was guiding and they were able to shoot a really nice, 9 1/2” billy way up high on the second day, followed by a beautiful 6 foot black bear on the fifth day.

On my second hunt of 2023, Chad was guiding Cameron from PA, also for archery goat. On the very first day, they were able to get close enough to take a fairly long shot in some pretty rugged terrain, but they weren’t able to connect with their billy. After a few more days chasing goats in different areas, and a night backpacking on the top of a mountain, they returned to the same area where Cam had missed on the first day, and were able to harvest a great, 8 year old billy, with 10” horns that ended up officially scoring 48 4/8 in Pope and Young. I expect you should be able to see the story that Cam wrote in Mountain Hunter magazine some time in the next year.

Okay, so I’m really terrible about updates, but it’s around -30 outside this weekend and I’m avoiding going outside. I realized my last post was about a year ago and figured I should finally put some pictures up. I didn’t end up having any spring bear hunters in 2023, so my first hunt was September 1 - 10 with two archers from Wisconsin hunting goats.

Jeff was hunting with my guide Chad, and unfortunately, despite being in great shape, when they were coming down a slippery, brushy creek on the fourth day, he slipped and tangled a leg in a root, which twisted his knee, partially tearing his MCL and causing some miniscus damage. The end result was that he was unable to continue goat hunting, and while he got a couple shots at black bears, he was unable to take home an animal.

Adam and I hunted hard for 10 days, and had two decent potential opportunities at nice billies, although both were pretty long, and the closest we got was a missed shot at about 65 yards. Our other opportunity was around the same distance, but we just weren’t able to convert it into a shot. Adam also got a shot at a black bear, but wasn’t able to take anything home.

Here’s the missed shot. It’s hard to tell, but we were pretty sure it sailed over top.
