AK Ram
« on: September 03, 2009, 07:28:31 PM »
Just a little guy.  7 years, 7/8 curl (that should clue those in the know into what GMU I hunted).  32.5" x 13.5" bases, so he had some potential.  Tough weather hunt - might have been more choosy had the weather cooperated, as there are big sheep genes in the area.  Couldn't have done it without help from partner - it's his turn next year.

Well that area looks real familiar, I took mine one area over in 1993, I was in the area it had to be full curl..

Congrats to you, I know how that weather can get. Fricken whiteout can be on you in 5 minutes flat up there.

Very cool Vek, you are living the dream up there. I still can't forget your moose hunt (and all the meat packing trips) from last year.
