I used to hunt the same way for years. My buddies and I would rent a cabin west of Williams Lake, drink, hunt in the morning, drink, bag a moose, drink some more and head back. The older I got the more respect I had for the animals I was taking and consequently dropped hunting with a gun and opted for a bow & arrow. Now I go alone, I carry everything on my back (I am down to 64lbs worth of gear) and opted to hunt Mountain Goat only. Obviously, it takes more patience and skill/luck to get within bow range (30 yards or so is where I am accurate in the field) of a goat, but it does give them more of a chance than at 500 yards with a 25-06. This year the closest I came to getting a goat, after 3 days, was about 600 yards. I had managed to get a higher position on them and they kept catching my scent and moving. Next year I am going to go after some Mountain Sheep.

Hoff you must be in great shape, mountain goat is one of "if not" the hardest game to hunt for.. All aspects of the hunt!! Great to hear you opt for the bow and respect the animals chances.

I hear brown bear are trained to sound with the crack of a rifle and goat tumbling dwn the mountain, hence they'll try to claim your kill for a free meal. Or is that more likely to happen in alaska?
