200" Bighorn Ram...
« on: November 16, 2007, 10:21:34 AM »
I am going to post a great picture of a 200" ram here on Monday or Tuesday.  Why not post it now?  I haven't taken it yet.  I am leaving today to my annual rut photo grounds to take huge ram pictures.  Have I seen this ram before?  Yeah, I've followed his progress for the last 10+ years.  Now the pressure is on, can I get something good.  Will I even find him?  We shall see...

Where are you going to film a 200 ram?

And the better question is, how come I'm not going with you?

LOL

I took about a 1000 pictures today.  It's taking a while to upload them to the computer...  Tick tock, tick tock...

Maybe not the best angle to accentuate his length.  He is long, comes up way past the nose.  He was fun to shoot.

Here is another interesting ram.  He is long with his lamb tips still on, he must not like to fight...

Cool Pics.  I don't think I have ever seen a ram with that length and size that wasn't chunked up or back from fighting.  That ought to put Ramslam into shock when he gets out his tape measure.

Sounds good, I'm, sure it will be worth the wait.  Thanks for taking the time to downsize them babies as well, it makes us dial-up users VERY happy.

I take it these guys aren't hunted too hard as any governors tag in the world would be after him.  That ram is incredible.
