That's because he wrote that in October 2007 just before he told me where I could put this forum and that wasn't a very nice place to put it either. Grin

We had a disagreement about politics on another forum. Cool

Yes, I remember that post well,
didn't think to look at the date?? Sad

My recollection though Aart is that they stink like anything and that put me off eating wild goat.

The Billy certainly stinks...they have terrible habits.

Gotta get them young..

Aart

Yeh the few times I have shot them for meat, I look for young nannies or billies who's thingy's havn't dropped yet!!

Head shots a must!! even chest shots give them a chance at a quick pulse of Adrenelene & they are not as good.

They need to be hung for a couple of days too.

Some of the best CO meat I have done! (but not the one at Broke COG!)

Grew up in Sheep country and ate more Goat than Lamb/Mutton. Less fat same taste.
Round em up with a couple of good Sheep Dogs and take your pick, just make sure its a young one cause the Nuts are crunchy Cheesy

I started out with nothing and still have most of it

I reckon a three quarter grown billy or bunny for that matter, with a single shot through the head,

We are this side of the Rabbit fence in Qld.

It's good that 'the fence' saved QLD from the scourge of the rabbit, as they've certainly done some damage in southern Australia, however in spite of this, I still have a bit soft spot for the humble old bunny, because some of my most fondest memories as a child and adolescent relate to hunting and trapping em.

Best goat I tasted came off 60,000 acres at Cunnamulla.

Aart,

Thats the sort of round we use down here for hunting Sambar deer in the alps, however it seems a very hefty load for goats.

Were they flighty and had to be shot at long ranges?

Primarily my piggin' rifle...
Most of it is done on foot.
One rifle is enough to carry.

130g ballistic tips do a great job.

I just brought home some Quail from Banyard Game Birds Pittsworth.
Bought at Toni's Super Meats Toowoomba where I got the rabbit.
A tray of six "Plump Breasted Large Size Quail" and a tray of two butterfly large Quail.
Was thinking of cooking them on my Weber Kettle, but anybody got advice for cooking in a camp oven?

Hate the Weber cook books, too fancy everything is marinaded and with sauces. Why cant they just tell us how to cook a Duck or a Rabbit or six Quails?
