Summary

Hunting with goats? Yes, goats. Pack goats are more than just helpful for carrying a load. As you will hear, they can even be valuable hunting partners from a strategic perspective. Unlike horses, which are often left in camp, pack goats can hunt right by your side. In fact, when Mark killed his bull in 2016 there were several goats just yards away. In this episode, Mark is joined again by Clay Hayes (previously on Episode 27) to discuss their experiences hunting with pack goats. Whether you are interested in owning and raising pack goats for hunting, curious about renting pack goats for a backcountry hunt, or just want to hear some funny tales about hunting with these interesting animals, you’ll be sure to enjoy this episode.
