Chelan Butte A - Any Ram
« on: June 10, 2020, 03:54:07 PM »
Hello there! 

My name is Kevin and I drew a sheep tag!  :drool: 

My buddy sent me a text that he struck out on drawing anything so I checked out mine.  I looked at my one of my boys' account first and came up empty. 

Mine was next, not selected, not selected, not selected not selected all the way to the bottom....selected, look to the left, what for? SHEEP ANY RAM!!!! What?!!  No way!!  I was in my office and I slammed my hand on my desk and hollered so loud and scared a couple guys I was working with, lol.

Then it was phone calls and texts for the next couple of hours. I didn't even have a chance to check my other boy's account until a couple of hours later. Needless to say I'm excited.

If you all have any input, I'm all ears.  I know I'm not a regular contributor but I've appreciated this forum over the years, yeah I guess I'm one of those guys... but hopefully you'll forgive me  :)

10 years ago I drew the same tag.  What an awesome hunt it was.  You are in for a really good sheep hunt.  Congrats!

Congrats!  I also put in for that as my first choice with also only 7 points.  Lucky guy!  Good to hear you can win without 25 years of points!   Please keep us posted on how that trip goes.

 Congratulations! I sorta did the same thing on my 2006 Clemans B any ram. We were checking at work and I slammed my hand down on table so hard I thought the tips of my fingers were gonna pop. You’ll have a great hunt! We camped at Mud Lk. and took my ram in Sanford Canyon. I think thats the names of the places. They are hard to judge for sure. I spent a bundle on high-end optics for the hunt. They were (and still are) worth every penny IMHO. I’m sure it doesn’t need to be said BUT now is the time to start practicing: judging, shooting (don’t forget angles), photo posing etc. Any questions feel free to ask. Exciting for sure.

That unit holds different groups of sheep make sure you find a nice ram before you squeeze the trigger. I think there's some tag holder videos out there. Don't be afraid to hunt via boat
