I was successful last year on my dream hunt for Dall sheep and I left my head with Joe Romero in Anchorage. I did a lot of research on taxidermists from that area and his name came up often. It was hard to leave the horns in Alaska tho!  Should be getting the mount within the next month. Can't wait to hold those horns again!

Good luck on your hunt and like others have said, take your time and enjoy it. It goes by way too fast!

Welcome Hawkeye!
We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.

Thanks for the welcome messages from everyone. Good luck on your hunt and shoot straight!  That area has great genetics. Looking forward to hearing about your hunt. I'm jealous!

Love that part of the hunt when it's really happening and everything is in front of ya.

Good Luck!
