Any more photo updates on rams found? You planning on spending some time in the hills soon? I am no expert, but I feel the cooler weather would make the hunt more enjoyable.

I'll add some photos after its all done. My guide found a stud yesterday we didn't know about. I told him I would really like to hunt for a few days just to get some time in the hills but this may be the one.Any more photo updates on rams found?

I like your style robie!My guide found a stud yesterday we didn't know about. I told him I would really like to hunt for a few days just to get some time in the hills but this may be the one.
Sounds awesome. Finding them is one thing and getting to then can be another. Good chance you’ll end up hunting that ram for a few daysI'll add some photos after its all done.

The cooler weather is very welcomed. If I would have hunted in July it would have been brutal in the middle of the day, 110+ degrees. Would have dealt with the heat but glassing with the heat waves makes it difficult.
Smart. Do your hunt You got a magazine story here. Plenty of time to tell the storyI'll add some photos after its all done.
It was really interesting when I started calling around guides of how they hunt this tag. Some guides will treat it like a normal hunt and work really hard in the units they know for a couple of weeks.Exciting! But all I can think about is how much it must cost to keep a guide (or two) in the field since July?!?! Hope you get a tank!!
Yes robie, I really like how you roll.It was really interesting when I started calling around guides of how they hunt this tag. Some guides will treat it like a normal hunt and work really hard in the units they know for a couple of weeks.
Some will tell you a hunt price and then add on a scouting package and scourer the state for the largest ram in NV.
I went with the second option. With the idea that these guys would work really hard in units that produce big rams year in and year out and a few units they have found big rams in every year. I don't have the kind of money to pay for scouting packages like the heritage guys do! I honestly don't know if the guides make any money on these hunts when its all said and done. It has to be more for the love of hunting sheep and hopefully adding a giant on their website at the end.
My guide has been great and I'll share all the details in the end. We could have been done July 1 with one of the rams he found in June if it was only up to me but he wanted to keep looking and I trusted my guide. I'm sure some of you will laugh at "up to me", but I treated this as our tag with my guide being the expert and is much more passionate about sheep than I will ever even understand. These guys love the process of looking and trying to dig up a giant. It's been a pleasure just to work with them.
I'm checked in for my flight and ready to hunt!
