Alyssa Nitschelm On Her Oregon Mountain Goat Hunt
Today we’ll be sharing a successful first hunt story of a woman from Oregon. Alyssa Nitschelm decided to start hunting this year and applied for the usual things in Oregon’s hunting draw like deer, elk, and pronghorn. However, she didn’t draw any of those species and instead hit the jackpot by drawing a rocky mountain goat tag this year instead. Here’s the story of her successful Oregon mountain goat hunt.

While mountain goat, moose, and sheep tags are never easy to draw, your odds of success are only truly 0% if you don’t apply. If you want to make an informed decision on which states are best for you to try your luck in for tough to draw species, then I also recommend heading over to GoHunt and signing up for their INSIDER membership to start researching those once in a lifetime tags you’ve always been dreaming of. Certain states are much better than others for non-resident applications for moose, goat and sheep, and spending a little bit of money with a GoHunt Insider Membership to get the best information to plan your application strategy can save you a lot of time and money in the long run.
