Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Backpack Hunting More on the packgoats

So with this storm system dumping 12-20 inches(forecasted, so far maybe 6-8), I’ve decided to push my hunt back by a day to let this play out. I may have time, but I doubt it, to get proper weights on the goats. So I just used the weight tape and the 2 littlest boys 41 inches, making them about 190 pounds. Ragnar is off the tape around 42.5 inches so maybe 205-210. The four biggest aren’t identical but Gunnar and Odin have similar girths around 44 inches. Not sure how that computes, but probably in the 220-230 neighborhood. Thor and Ivar are totally off the tape, not just beyond estimating, so I’ll go with 240-250 on them.

Here’s hoping it warms up and thaws the snow a bit for the hunt or else I may consider packing feed in
