MT Bighorn Sheep - Better run for cover

[Nemont]

Custer National Forest in the southeast.

The old Custer National Forest has been kicking out some dandies lately. I can only dream about getting down there some day.

Good luck on the hunt and hope the filming goes great.

Whats new, just like any Friday night for Miller

Ha! Just a bit early this week, huh? Montana Playboy pictures will do it everytime, don't you know...

Great looking rams! Best of luck to the hunter and the camera crew. Would make a spectacular show.

Randy: Having hunted and bagged adesert bighorn and watching them for a fall, I'd say that 3rd picture is an 200 plus even with the brooming!!! look like you guys have got it figured out. Good luck111

 

[MNHunter]

All I can say is WOW! I'd piss myself looking at that guy through the scope. Good luck.

Those are some stud rams! check out the roman nose on that broadside shot. How old do you all think that ram is?

 

[elk_hunter]

Ditto to everyone's comments...absolute MONSTERS!!!

Mercy. Those are some beautiful animals. Someday I'll get another crack at one.

How old do you all think that ram is?

Definitely not an expert on the subject but I came up with either seven or eight, thinking probably eight.

"Hank the Tank" went undetected today. He is must have read this thread, and is laying low. Tomorrow, we have six of us scouring the hills for his big body.

Only bad part is that we are getting snow like crazy right now. I must be a blizzard magnet. Every hunt the last month has been a snowfest.

Oh well, hitting the hay, and will post updates at times when I have coverage.

Good luck today.

Six guys scouring the hills, I need a hunt like that.

 

[Chilly Willy]

Good luck Big Fin. Can't wait to see the film on King Kong.

We have 2 huge rams spotted. Waiting for them to come from the trees. One looks like the world's biggest Dall sheep. Probably 46" inch curl, but thin.

We think the big heavy guy is the one with him. We can move in to about 200 yards. Looks like a two hour hike.

Stay tuned.

You hiked too far North...

BF,

I am leaving for MT in a two hours to hunt antelope w/ Upper Deck. I am antsy to see pics before we hit the road, but I am fairly certain that won't happen as far back as you are in. Waiting until Sunday will be tough! Good luck!

Dang, now I am going to be on the edge of my seat all day!

Looking forward to pics!

Can't wait to see the pictures. Those sure are gorgeous rams !!!
Definitely mid 190 but 200+ is really HUGE. But that is just my guessing from looking at
a lot of pictures. Either way, good luck, and let them walk if he wants to. Always hear
a lot more/ different rams materialize once November hits.

Well, the big guy was not in the group. Have some great footage of five rams on the sidehill. Biggest was the long dude - probably 192 to 195. Another was in the 190 range. And, one around 185. We just climbed out of the coulee and left them there. Amazing footage, but WTH is Vaughn looking for?

Will load digiscope pics tonight.

How many other hunts can someone not named greenhorn go on and pass on three Boone and Crockett animals in one group? Unbelievable.

Hank the TANK is dead!!! Pics tonight.
