    The face we were shooting was crazy steep and a little out of my comfort zone being pretty inexperienced we discussed it and agreed I would be better to save my energy for the climb out.
    My 2 mates both more experienced shot up the face embarrassingly fast and set to gutting a few goats then tossing them down to me.
    At this stage I called out and asked if they got my trophy?
    I knew I had shot a Billy but didn't think it was anything special.
    Whumpf ! I heard something big come down off the face the guys were grinning, then I saw why.
    My Billy was huge on seeing him I guessed about 18" but I was chuffed as he had a good head on him.
    He stunk to high heaven so we set him up and got a quick pic before removing his head.
