    Wyoming Draws are out

    Wife burned 15 points after Covid regs put a dent in 2020 plans. Drew area 58, sure looking forward to getting down there!!!!

    Dream unit for antelope?

    Went round and round doing as much research as possible, and just put 15 points in the draw this year. Not hard to dial in information and we narrowed it down to 6-8 zones in short enough order. Not that they're the 'best' but for a NR who hasnt spent a ton of time there, they'll all provide...

    Test broadheads

    Shoot em. Theres a very strong chance they land with your FP's, but I'd never trust that. Similar to 'trusting' a CDS dial on a scope or a reticle system without verifying it.

    Timing to contact regional biologists re winter/populations

    Thanks guys! Down to 2 zones in our selection that are both pretty high point zones but in opposite parts of the State. Will keep an eye for the Powerpoint slides like they did last year about tag allocation

    Timing to contact regional biologists re winter/populations

    Hey Guys, Looking at drawing my wife down in the Red Desert this year near Rawlins, and I'm curious on timing when a person should be reaching out regarding populations/winter severity/etc in doing research? We're pretty committed to one zone, but nice to check in and also have a couple...

    A BC Stone's sheep story

    They are confiscated. In the past I've seen horns used for fundraising purposes like being turned into knives, etc and then put back into sheep conservation funds. Not sure about the fines or what they do for those. I know they want to promote self reporting, but since all sheep need to be...

    A BC Stone's sheep story

    That night it rained most of the night, and we woke to rain. We knew it was going to be a long wet day of hiking, but ground it out and made it back to the truck by 4-4:30, soaking wet for the most part. Sure felt great getting back and taking that pack off!!!! Thanks for following along...

    A BC Stone's sheep story

    We got back to camp at 1130 that night, and enjoyed some food before bed. The following day was cape and meat prep. We cooked some meat by the fire, enjoyed some laughs, and got the cape on salt. Cleaned up as much as we good, ate a ton of our 'extra' food and then prepared for the hike out...

    A BC Stone's sheep story

    From there, it was pics and all the fun that goes with a successful hunt. In 2019, I developed a Wild Sheep Society of BC 'Challenge Coin', and its turned into a really cool thing to carry on hunts and to any society events or fundraisers. Anyone that knows the history of challenge coins can...

    A BC Stone's sheep story

    "I'm going to shoot this ram" I said to Darren. I left the camera on the spotting scope and told him he could hit the record button at one point. I got comfortable on my pack and adjusted a few things with my gun. A couple ranges confirmed he was 330 yards. I sat for a while prone on the...

    A BC Stone's sheep story

    BC has had a large number of 'illegal' rams harvested this year. So many, in fact, that the BC Conservation service reached out to the Wild Sheep Society of BC to try and get the message out about shooting rams that didnt meet the full-curl requirement and were less than 8 years old by annuli...

    A BC Stone's sheep story

    I've killed one Stone's sheep back in 2014, and this ram was not as big as my first, however the area we were hunting does not produce as many 'big' rams as the area I shot my first ram in. While it can happen, my understanding is the area produces smaller based rams, often that grow slower and...
