Special App Ewe?
« on: June 08, 2010, 04:29:54 PM »
I was just wondering for those who who put in for a Ewe tag, what they plan on doing with the animal.  For eating?  For the wall?  Population control?  This isn't intended to bash those who applied or criticize, but to find out what they planned on doing with the tag. :)

I purchased the application before I looked at the hunt choices. I was thinking it would be a fun and relatively easy hunt, no different than hunting for a ram, really. And I thought it would be a good opportunity to try bighorn sheep meat. So that was my main goal in applying for a ewe sheep hunt: the meat. Plus I just thought it would be an enjoyable hunting experience.

Until I went to submit my application, and saw there was only one hunt available, and it is a 7 hour drive, and I know nothing about the unit. Not worth the time and/or expense to me, so I just applied for the point. Maybe in the future they will have more options for the ewe sheep hunts.

Same thing you do with a doe. People say that sheep is pretty good eating.

According to Jack O'Connor, wild sheep meat is supposed to be the best game meat there is... :dunno:  I didn't put in for the ewe tag, but I put PathfinderJR in for the youth tag.  Cool experience and meat in the freezer...
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.

All right, I was just taking a friendly jab. The ewe would be a fine hunt. I am not knocking it one bit.

Sheep meat is delicious!! My dall sheep was awesome over a open pit fire.
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.
