As long as we are talking about 200" rams, there were 3 taken from the breaks in Montana this year...  There was also one taken in canada a couple years ago and that's the last one.  Notice the tighter curl and huge mass.  I don't think there is much problem posting them since they are all over the internet...  Here they are:

Those are some pretty awesome rams.  I love the super tight curls on those Canadian rams.

Yeah, but unless I'm mistaken, the last picture - the one with the tighter curl - is the Canadian ram.

I think he was on the ark with Noah... :chuckle:

I am in Portland right now with the wife for a Doctor's appt.  Could not believe how many sheep we saw on the trip.  Are they always there?  Have I just never seen them before?  Saw 4 herds.  Got some decent pics of a bachelor herd.  I'll put them up when I get home.
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Are you refering to all the sheep around the mouth of the John Day along I-84? I drove through there on Sunday and saw over 30 head in that area, including a couple really impressive rams. (The traffic behind me was none-too-happy when I kept slowing down to get a better look at all of them...got a few of the one-finger waves...LOL)

I am assuming that since you are from SE WA that you took I-84 to Portland.

Sounds like another potential big one bit the dust this last weekend out of the Swakane.  I loved that ram.  He was awesome.  Who knows what another good year of growth would have yeilded.  All I smacked withthe truck (a Ram by the way) was a whitetail.  I 'm pretty sure bumpin bumpers with this guy might have caused a bigger mess of my front end.

Yeah, gotta be the same sheep.  didn't see any real studs, but here are the pics of the bachelor herd.  I posted them on another thread too (Oregon Bighorns in Photography).
