Long Walk Rams

[Gerald Martin]

Some of you guys on here can appreciate this. My Facebook feed just delivered this picture of a friend of a friend's Alberta ram. Hopefully, he'll chime in here and introduce himself and tell us all the whole story. I know these guys sure earned their rams. How big do you think this ram is?

 

[Oak]

Wow. I would guess he's low 190's. Would like to hear the story.

 

[kansasdad]

How old would he be? (Can I get to 9 1/2?).

In a past thread someone drew the age rings to try and show how rams are aged. If it's possible could that be done again?

 

[Gerald Martin]

The hunter aged him at 11. I think you'll enjoy the story of this one Oak. I'm with you on the score. Dan (the hunter) is hoping he makes B&C. I think he's got it.

I'm thinking that's a 195" sheep easy. What a tank! I count 12 rings.

Looks can be deceiving. See post #21 of this thread.. That said, I would still be shocked if he didn't make the all time book.

My guess, 178 and 11yo. Nice ram!

Magnificent trophy, and no doubt well earnt. I'll go 189, looks the goods that for sure.

 

[Kiwi]

I have no idea of the score but what an amazing trophy!

 

[mtmander]

Nice ram , as far as age , how many rings/years are there before the deep ring about 1/2 curl ?

 

[Nameless Range]

Don't know much about scoring rams, but what an awesome critter. Just a beast.

Congrats to your friend.

What an awesome sheep! It is a little difficult to tell from the pics, but I would say this is definitely a book ram. 190's for sure. Congrats!

That ram would make MY book. All time. I'd best a bottle of Gibson's finest that is a B&C ram. Would love to hear the whole story and see more pics.

 

[Baerman]

goodness gracious! look at those rams!!! look at that country!!! Those are hard earned trophys. Will be hard to top those bad boys. Are you able to say if this is one of the unlimited hunts? If so, even more impressive!

 

[rjlefty3]

That is sweet, talk about mass! Looking forward to the story!

Beautiful ram, I will throw my hat in and go 197 and 11 years old.
Would like a better pic of the top of the head to look at mass.

 

[Schaaf]

Did I hear right that he was registered at 12.5 years old? Very awesome ram!

And he said it scored 174. Nice ram for sure.
