It was great to see Jewel's ram in person last night at the ADBSS recognition banquet. I enjoyed the laughs when she said the hunt part was "easy". Speaks volumes of her team. I had the pleasure of congratulating the young lady as she was taking photos with her plaque and ram mount. Here's to her drawing a desert bighorn tag soon.

Congratulations. That altitude gets my lungs every time.

Way to go! Congratulations

Way to go my man. Nice photos.

Sweet mass and knurls. Congrats! I have some of those Bamboo Duck Camps also. nice.

Nice. Congrats

I prefer Pop Up trailers over any camp trailer for following me where regular camp trailers can't. I second what HunterHohnny said where he states that they seem to loosen up over time. They are built light for a reason and that doesn't fare well with washboard dirt roads, flexing through uneven trails, etc. There are several heavier duty off-road trailers available now, but they can get pricey. For easier towing, better off-road manners, easier storage, I choose a pop up.

Nice.

Nice buck. Congratulations. You were in it to win it and you did good! Your smile says it all.

What a buck. Amazing coues. Congratulations man. You must be on cloud nine.

My Man 👊

I keep checking the thread to see if you add more to the story of your adventure. Hoping for more pics and possibly base measurements and horn length!? 😎

Dude! That's been my dream hunt for several years now! I just see prices go up and up and up. Congratulations! Stud Ram!

Stud buck. Congrats!

Unfortunately, that's what some heirs do after inheriting your stuff. Sell it.

Not a bad mount either.

Congratulations. Great Photo

Where in Sonora is the ranch located?

Yup.

The draw season hunts are going to be that much sweeter with opportunities at the mature bucks that would have otherwise been killed.

Not all ribeye's are created equal.

Such good news. I haven't seen it like this since hunting Baja.

I was just going to say this. Don't forget to pierce the skin on em before grilling at any areas that look like they could pop and shoot grease on you.

Did you make it? Hope you enjoyed it.

Well this didn't take long! Wife and I took a trip to Artichoke Basille's in Tempe. Upon walking in, we had a nice view of the slice pie glass display. I saw that they had sets of Bakers Pride pizza ovens with cordierite decks so I was pumped. Tried the Margherita and the Staten Island slices. Slices came out piping hot with crispy crust bottoms, just the way I like em. They use Polly-O mozzarella and add Grana Padano cheese. Not sure if this contributed to an oilier finish than I prefer. (as you've noticed, I love Grande Mozzarella) Flavor profiles on both pizza's was good. The sauce was flavorful/savory and a welcomed surprise as I've been tired of the bland tomato sauces at other pizza joints. The crust absolutely slapped. It has great texture and a perfect chew. Not only would I hit this place up again, it's my new go-to for NY style pizza. Thanks again amack26 for the recommendation!
