FWB, I hunted those little feathered mountain goats for 6 years I lived in NV. I was in a lot better shape back then, or a lot hungrier. But they are fun to hunt! I remember the first time: my dog and I killed 2 birds by a spring then chased the covey up a mountain. As we got close to the top (2,500 feet higher), I figured I was going to slaughter them, but as I started to get too close, they just jumped up and flew across a 2-mile wide canyon. I sat down and just watches them go, I didn't know what to say or do. That's when I started asking other hunters how to hunt them and I learned you have to sidehill them. At least that way you get a few shots!
