Ram down!

I just got back from the Arizona Desert hunting desert Bighorn sheep.  Here are a couple pics to start with until I can get everything in order and get the rest of the pics up and get the video edited.   We shot this ram at 504 yards.  It was an awesome hunt with some great people.

I know me on a horse is a little scary.

Huge Desert Sheep with a bow!

Kevin Slone completed his goal of taking a huge Desert Sheep with his bow and arrow.  After beating the odds and finally drawing the tag of a life time the quest had begun.  Here are some of the pictures his brother Rick was texting me as they found the sheep.  After discussing the probable score of the ram the stalk was on, an hour later the ram finally presented Kevin with the shot he was looking for.  With the steep angle the compensating range finder said 47 yards and the arrow hit its mark.  Congrats Kevin on a awesome sheep with your bow, your the man!!

This awesome Ram green scored 175 Gross and 172 4/8 net.  After the 60 day drying period this ram will be high in the record book.

Sheep update Part 1-No kill yet!!

We are back for a couple days to get some work caught up, before heading back down.  The weather was a little challenging to say the least.  We had found three awesome rams prior to season and none of these rams we found during our latest trip to sheep country.  We put over 80 miles on the horses and saw a fair amount of sheep with the largest being in the 160 range.  Here are a couple pictures of some of the rams we encountered these last days since the hunt started.

I will keep you updated on the progress of the hunt.  This unit is very tough with very little access and lots of huge cut up country with out a lot of sheep.
