Here is the ram at 373 yards that was straight across the draw from us ……course I got pics fellaThis new herd is 850 yards to our left, RocketRam is 500 yards to our right. There was a small dead branch in front of our glassing spot that was obscuring our view. As I broke it off to get a better look at the new rams, the sound of the break caught the attention of another ram that was bedded about 400 yards away on the ridge directly across from us and between the two herds.
This new ram was also an impressive ram at least as big as RocketRam. (I hope Matt can supply a pic of this ram since I don’t have any of him.).
We now have four rams within 800 yards that are the quality of ram I was wanting to shoot. I was going back and forth between multiple guys spotters trying to compare the attributes and weaknesses of each ram to make a decision which one to stalk if any.
This new ram and RocketRam were noticeably broomed on one horn a couple inches shorter than the other. Aesthetically, they weren’t as appealing to my sense of “the ideal ram” ( whatever that arbitrary definition means???) as a ram that was symmetrical in length.
The lower ram in the previous picture seemed to be a bit heavier in mass than his companions in the herd and from what I could see was pretty even in length.
It was just past 5 pm. If I was going to make a decision and kill a ram, I needed to get on with it…
Good grief! What a ram! And the story is awesome too. Did I miss details of that rifle you're packing?
Was that what started the “X” Creek fire I read about?I’ve been out of hunt talk land for so long I can’t figure out how to get a video on
