Post subject:  looking for goats
i have been on google earth and all over the net for ages looking for state forests in vic that might hold a few goats
for me and danny to hunt but its just not happnen for me.
i have asked for help on hunting forums but have not got a reply.

last hope is one of the people that read this part of the forum will know where some goats are.
i am not looking for trophy billys. just something bigger than rabbits.

if someone can help me out i will gladly take you to my rabbit spot to try for some, or for a night spotlighting.

thanks

my girlfriend's dad is a keen hunter(and fisho, thank god) and i think he mentioned something about goats a little way back. from memory i think it was somewhere up in the higher country. next time i see him ill ask him and let you know.

KingLake Maryville Brisbane ranges all have goats but they are hard to find because its pretty dense, even the You Yangs has a small mob on it. If you nreally want goats you have to go to N.S.W but its a bit like shooting sheep really.

The shooting sheep comment was sarcasm in that goats are about as difficult to shoot as sheep take the lead goat down and the rest don't know what to do.
