Shawn,

That has to be one of the finest hunting write up and pics I have ever seen.  You did all the work and research and your dream came true.

It will a while before you come back to earth😁

Wow, really amazing hunt.  Your story is one of the best I've ever read, great pictures, great, great ram. Truly a once in a lifetime experience, even if you go again (if that makes sense).  Thank you very much for taking us along on your hunt, it is as close to the real thing as most of us will get.  Your preparation and dedication to the hunt showed in your story and was a direct result in your success.  Super job, congrats! And thanks again for sharing.
