Sheep...Let's See 'em!!!

[nube]

Thanks Chris. I can't wait to get my leopard in that trophy room. Do you have a mount all picked out for yours? Any idea when they might be home? I just got the Canadian cites and waiting on the zim one now.

2008 Upper Rock Creek. Second to last day of the season this one decided to cooperate. Needless to say the nights leading up to this I didn't get much sleep.

Poor, and unlucky in the draw. This is my ram, a mouflon from Hawaii.

I was lucky to be able to go on two friend's desert sheep hunts (one in NM and one in AZ) and my first sheep hunt for myself, a dall sheep hunt in AK this year. All three hunts were perfectly amazing and tons of fun. I'm afraid it's going to be very expensive getting this sheep hunting bug out of my system!

I'll post some pics once I figure our how.

Biggest resident ram in the unit made it through this year's hunt again (I'm thinking pushing 175 now). Pic from August this year ...

I've been quite fortunate to get in on some incredible hunts over the years. Have seen at least 1 sheep killed each year I've lived here, and a few doubles. Counting down the days until August rolls around again. The flight is booked, just not sure of the drainage yet, or exact date, but it will happen unless I'm dead...

I've shared these here before, along with the story of the hunts.

2010 - my first ram - shot about 7 miles from camp. I was alone, the wife was in camp too worn out to go. I will say I was worn out when I got back 24 hours later. A whole sheep along with hunting and overnight gear is about all I care to pack.

13x37 -12 or 13yo

2011 - my wife's first ram. Awesome hunt, saw 4 other legal rams.
12.875x38 12yo

2012 a double, double. We saw a lot of sheep on this hunt, maybe 20 some rams. We were after another hog ram when we spotted 4 together, including these two. We waited them out for about 10 hours before killing them both. Lots of walking on this one... about 10 miles from the strip, and 2 trips to get everything back, including nearly 2.5 miles across a glacier.

Both double broomed, 13.25x33 8yo, and 13.875x36 10yo

2013, another double, double
Larry's ram. IIRC it was 13.5x39.5 9yo. One of the biggest rams I've see on the hoof.

My ram - FC, double broomed, 11 years old... Legal all three ways.
13.25x36.5

2014 - An amazing trip, AKdrifter and my ram

13x33 9yo and 13.5x37 8yo.

2015 - Ol' Stumpy. I flew my nephew up to help pack out my sheep.

13x31 9yo
