    Sheep Army, Who Wants In ?

    That would probably be my buddy Mike. He is the dude on the right throwing a hang loose in the group pic. He went out the day before the hunt and covered a bunch of country looking for a ghost ram while I camped out on the one we killed. I think he saw 14 sheep that day including a 5 year old ram that one horn that was probably close to 40”. Just a baby giant.

    Sheep Army, Who Wants In ?

    Well, it nearly took an army but we got it done. I don’t have the time or the energy to write it all up now, I will have to do that later. But suffice it to say that @1denogean, @bonecollector, @wish2hunt, @trphyhntr and a group of others all pitched in big time to make this happen and they will forever be part of our sheep army. @lancetkenyon thanks for the range time making sure the gun and charts were ready when the time came. This was our longest shot ever, 542 yds. We killed a good ram and it was amazing for my kid to experience. But more importantly my kid got to see men being men. He got to experience what it means to be part of something and to have others support you in accomplishing a goal without taking any credit for themselves. Here are some pics, I will write up the story later.
  6. I’d be spending my time in 27. Should be amazing.

    Sorry dudes, I swear I am not intentionally dragging this out. Just up against a deadline and trying to catch up with life after spending 7 of the last 9 days in the desert. Here is something to tide you over.

    Any late rifle 5b advise?

    Do you have binoculars mounted on a tripod? Get up high and look look look. Your very best bet is the first 10 minutes of gray light. I mean like when you can’t see without binoculars. Just look for those yellow dots on open slopes feeding. Or on east facing canyon slopes. Then watch them cross to the north or west. You can then try to glass them up again in their beds or try to set up for the evening to catch them as they come back to feeding areas. If they don’t come back out, try to intercept them again in the morning. Start glassing, you’ll find elk.

    Soooo, you are no longer applying? Gunna be tough to draw that Rocky tag.

    Hate to break it to you money bags but if you’ve been applying in Wyoming, MT and AZ for 43 years you have way more than $4700 into just the app and license fees. Thats the thing about old rich dudes, most of them don’t even remember what it was like to be middle class.

    Doctor binoculars 30x80

    OG Big eyes right there. I remember seeing Greg Krogh glassing bulls from 5 miles with a pair of these when I was 18. Blew my mind and changed how I thought about hunting.

    About as pretty of a buck as you could ask for. Congrats! Ugly hat tho 😉

    Grim for sure. Not sure what’s dark about it. With 150 tags available and 50k people applying, the math ain’t so good for any of us.

    Statistically, most of them will.

    Bragging about how many rams you have killed is the equivalent of bragging about golf courses you have played at. Just an old rich dude trying to flex about being old and rich. When you do draw that rocky tag please bring your friend with the walking sticks. Please make a video. Please kill a giant. And be sure to sell it to all of Randy’s loyal Midwest subscribers and remind them to send their donations every May. In the mean time they can keep chasing quail and eating jackrabbits. Then you can slap each other on the back and rub each other in the front while you pretend it’s all for conservation. No hair off my back.
