Montana 3/4 curl ram judging

[BuzzH]

Buzz do you have a side view of your buddy's ram? Curious what the % of curl he was, he looks like a darn nice ram.

Gross scored 179 and change.

Should of said me with my buddies ram.

Haha, it was my attempt at some humor on a Monday morning.

My buddies ram, 10 years old and unbrooomed.

The ram I passed 6 years old:

There’s something not right in the world when that broomed ram isn’t legal but a ram like this is.

What if they only, sorta, broom one side?

You take some absolutely awesome photos!

There's a policy exception for double broomed rams.

I don’t fault the guy for shooting that ram, don’t look like he’s getting any younger and probably a dream of his, so why not fulfill your dreams why ya can ? Don’t know the guy or his financial status but possibly once in a life time ?

I think you look yourself in the mirror and nod because you did the right thing and passed that little dink. Failure is part of life. Sometimes when you think you win, you actually lost. But I guess if your dream was to shoot a little dink ram, have at it...might want to ponder your dreams...just sayin

Edited: Unless thats the biggest ram in the unit, than slam him.

Would it matter if the guy had COPD?

I would agree it should be and if there is a policy exemption for double broomed rams they sure keep it a secret, but it doesn’t pass the line through the eye test.

Not all states have the 3/4 curl minimum rule.

Probably would be a legal ram eventually, it was only 6 in the photo.

For the record he was with 5 other rams and was noticably bigger bodied. I was 300 yards from that ram with looking at it through my spotting scope and I couldn't see the growth rings all that well.

I would have thought from just looking at it, probably 9 or 10 just based on body size and amount of brooming.

When I found out it was only 6 I was glad I didn't shoot it. Would have been disappointed.

Ah didn't realize it was specific to Montana.

Very good point.

He does...was probably lucky to get a ram of any kind.
