7-Day British Columbia Mountain Goat Hunt 2014
Great hunts and firearms!
Donor: Greg Williams & Shane Mahoney, Wild Forever Alliance



Mountain goat is the most plentiful game animal in this area, offering a great opportunity to harvest a trophy animal. These goats get every bit as big as coastal goats, but the hunting for them is generally more pleasant (less Devils Club and no coastal rain/fog). The goats there range in size from 9-11".



Golden Bear produces trophy class animals. In 2008 Tim Metcalf took the new world’s record Pope and Young goat scoring 54 2/8 inches. Bob Schermer took a 53 6/8 Boone and Crockett goat on the same hunt! Several other goats came in right at the 50" mark that year.



Hunt mid-late August for the best weather and after mid-September for the best hair. Goat hunting is strenuous and requires good physical conditioning. If you want a big goat, be prepared to turn down smaller billies. Shooting nannies is not encouraged or promoted, even though they are legal. Several areas can be accessed with horses for those who cannot hike far.



When you combine their 35 years of experience in the guiding and outfitting industry, an awesome crew that is second to none, plus a phenomenal trophy-producing area like Golden Bear, they can safely say that your chances of success are an almost certainty. They will make every effort to ensure your hunt is a positive and memorable experience.
