I don’t think you are referring to me, but just in case, I tanned my full hide and did a euro for the horns. I’m with you I like them best in their entirety!

Sheep and goat 2023 tag draw statistics posted earlier today
No hide left on the mountain. Just no room to keep a full mount. The back half is hanging on my gun safe and made a gift for my hunting partner with the front hooves.

Get a replica of your ram, have the replica mounted on the hide and then have your skull euro to still be able to hand hold

I looked into that idea last year. I wanted to mount the replica horns with the cape and have the euro to hold. They price by the inch and a replica of my skull would have been over $2000!! I chose to go half life size instead

I did a goat euro and a “trapper tan” of the full hide. No regrets.

Full-body mount on my 2018 Alaska mountain goat. Still waiting on my Arizona desert bighorn sheep shoulder mount from December 2022. Very pleased. Happy hunting, TheGrayRider.

Been reading specific content on the HT forum for years, but never posted. Congrats to everyone that drew sheep & goat here in CO. I might have been the luckiest one of all, I drew both with 3+7. Archery S9 ram. Archery G5 es. I know both units pretty well and am fortunate enough to live near both. I just wanted to jump in this thread in case I might pickup a little chatter. Best of luck to everyone!

Welcome to HT. Congratulations on your tag.
Hot dang come on board swinging! Congrats, make sure you come back around and share how it goes. Im really interested in that G5 archery tag.
Though I'm not in the Colorado moose/goat/sheep draws, I admire the work being done in Colorado for wild sheep. The power of the domestic sheep industry at a national level is in full display in Colorado, as they use their influence to keep domestic sheep in places that are a huge risk to the existing wild sheep herds. One group that is fighting for those sheep is the Rocky Mountain Bighorn Society.
If you want to keep the existing sheep herds viable, which helps your draw odds, a donation to Rocky Mountain Bighorn Society is the best donation you can make to that effort.

Did you draw as a nr ?

No, I've lived in S21 for 15-years. Unfortunately S21 doesn't have any archery tags, so I've been applying to S9 because I've helped buddies get rams in that unit over the past decade. For NR this year 143 applied as first choice and the allocated 1 was drawn with 3+10. I've done a ton of activity in G5 just because it's over the hill from me. For NR this year 316 applied as first choice and the allocated 2 were drawn with 3+9 and 3+14.

see the above previous note I posted about what Rocky Mountain Bighorn Society offers in terms of helping the newly minted tag holders get some Intel.
if you’re not yet a member of RMBS, get to it!
my first sheep was in S9 a million years ago
