I never understood the strong desire to hunt sheep...  But the more stories I see and photos I see the more interested I get.

Such beautiful trophies. 

To the OP:  great ram in a beautiful setting!  I don't normally think of rams in forested areas.

How many points did U have when you drew this 2019 tag?

I had 14 points, which is not many compared to a lot of people.

There is a lot of timber in that unit!
I was thankful to catch him in that meadow. It was raining all day and the rocks in that area get super slick when they are wet.

My closest call with death was slipping on wet lichen covered rocks!

Great looking ram, 10.5 years old, that's really good. How long are his horns.  :tup:

Been applying for a "SHE" Sheep tag for years, skipped a few but put in for 2019 now have 7 points.
My dream unit would be Lincoln Cliffs. You say Why,, well? years back I was traveling through there and had a gang on a slee slope just to my right-side. HAH,, they were sliding down in the gravel towards my side to the roadside! No not all have traction like us on a hike!
One Ram had an Ear tag and must have been 12 years old at least. there were 22 in the gang/group. This was in 1999..
It's a challenging area, Desert flats, coulee's, and a very dry area & challenging at best. I will put in again for this Unit. (1)792/13 tag! + 1 tag 667/13 Ram Lincoln cliffsA(2) odds...NONE!
One thing in LIFE is,,, We cannot out run time!

That’s awesome! I’ve managed to get quite a few pictures of the small rams and tons of ewes but never the big rams. Congrats!
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short.

Amen
