Swakane yields World Record Sheep
« on: April 09, 2011, 11:12:11 AM »
At the WDFW commission meeting yesterday it was announced that a California Bighorn Sheep taken out of the Swakane had just been confirmed to be the new world record. Is that old news?

I'd just like to remind everybody that it's about the hunting, not just the killing. In other words, it's about the total experience, the sport itself and the challenge involved. Bowhunting, done right, is a justifiable and honorable pursuit. Done for the wrong reasons, simply chalking up kills and seeking personal glory, it's taking away rather than giving back to a principled way of life that has to be experienced to be understood. G.StCharles

 Yes it does, I've been saying that for years. Pisses me off, after putting in for multiple states for years, seeing how non residents get treated, then good old wa has no discrimination at all?

B&C/P&Y don't recognize cali ram/rocky ram...this sheep is an SCI world record Cali ram. To B/C and P/Y they're all the same.

Thats pretty cool, The first place I ever saw wild sheep was while hunting Deer up on Swakane, herd was in the same spot every time I hunted up there.
The biggest one I saw had a collar and tags on his ear, wonder if it was the same one......

Not sure when you were there deer hunting up there, but several years ago, the big guy was the one with the collar that you saw.  He was taken and i believe he was the state record cali up until Aaron got his monster last year.  I could be wrong.. help me out here guys if i am.
