[Brute]

Nice... Congratulation Pope. Will be waiting to see photos of your adventure. 
Did not think you liked the 100-400 too much.

CAn't wait to see how this turns out, makes me wish I was going up north again for another white sheep. I know the photos will be outstanding though!

Awesome man hope it's everything you have dreamed about.

Looks cool but I do not see anything about hunting on there. Skiing, Hiking. Etc.. No hunting listed?

[coachcw]

No doubt you will do it justice ! your well deserving of a sheep hunt for all you have done for the species... btw how is the 6.5 shooting ?

[wsmnut]

That is beautiful country.   Can't wait for the pictures.  I hope you have a memorable experience that fulfills your dreams.

I'm 52 & in pretty much the same boat, over 30 years putting if for draws & time to step up. Been on moose & goat hunts but no sheep. I leave for AK on Aug 16th. I'm in my best shape since I was 20. never went to the gym just scouted & hiked & hunted. But now it's 2-3 days a week. I don't want to be the guy who can't hike 10 miles a day with a pack for a week or more. Been thinking about this & preparing for over a year & it sure came fast. Good luck!

Pretty awesome. Going dall sheep hunting!!

Details!!!!!!

From the day you book or draw up until the actual hunt I think may exceed the experience of the hunt itself. I've been asked, "which sheep hunt is your favorite?" My response is, "my next one!"  I don't mean to devalue any of my previous hunts, there's just something unbelievably special about prepping for and going on a sheep hunt.  During the hunt itself if I had a dollar every time I aaid, "I can't believe I'm sheep hunting!" I'd have enough money to go on another hunt!

Enjoy!

Congratulations!

I got the wife's approval last year (I turn 50 this fall) for the same hunt (wrangles Dall sheep).  This was going to be my first and possibly only guided hunt I would get to do and I'm not getting any younger.

After mulling over it and researching it to death I finally decided to turn the arctic sheep hunt into an Arctic Fox 22ft trailer (for the Familys sake) and a comfy hunting "tent" for retirement.

The sheep hunt was going to be my dream hunt of a lifetime.

As luck would have it I drew a WA Ewe tag and a WY moose tag this year for my 50th
so some things go my way once in a blue moon.

Looking forward to hearing your story.

Good for you! To many people wait to draw a tag and eventually it will be to late and they will never make it happen.
