I say go for it. How far can you shoot it?

For me personally, I couldn't do it. I wouldn't want to handicap myself on a once in a lifetime hunt.
If you can live with the possibility of not getting a goat because of your weapon choice, then go for it.

X2 what's out her elk said!
I think you should give it a try. Take a buddy to pack a rifle for you so if you find a bomber billy but can't get on him with the smoke pole then you can harvest him with the rifle. I wished I had tried mine with a bow but after hearing a buddy of mine lose his opportunity at his once in a lifetime because he only had a bow, I decided to take the rifle. Turns out the billy I got was sound asleep and in a stalkable position. I feel fairly confident I could have harvested him with a bow. That is my only regret.
Good luck and please keep us posted on your scouting and hunt. Seems like there is a pretty good goat following on this forum.

^Bringing a rifle for backup is a great idea.

Absolutely take the Clinton and a backup. I do it with my bow and rifle for nearly all animals.
