Was with a permit holder in the Selah Butte unit three years ago. The hunter wanted "lamb tips" but all of the old rams had horns close to their head and broomed so we took a young one for his full body mount collection. I am around the Swakane herd all the time where their horns grow fast and wide so seeing these old rams with horns rubbing their face was something knew to me. The new World Record won't come out of Selah Butte.Beautiful sheep non-the-less! Looks like he got what he came for also.

I'm confused. The ram in the picture was a Swakane ram.

Nice to see that I'm not the only one scratching my melon over this one.

Permit holder wanted a ram with tips; all of the mature rams that we found were broomed off so he took a young ram and was thrilled with it.
Aaron's world record ram was pictured from the Swakane unit was pictured just to how those rams differ in horn growth from the slow growing; close to face horns of the Selah Butte rams. Selah Butte is an easy hunt, will see many, many mature and younger rams. Access is on private property but access is easy and not too expensive.
I posted a photo of the young ram from Selah Butte's 2010 hunt; made a nice full body mount to go with the hunters collection.
