2013 Arizona Super Raffle Desert Bighorn Sheep Hunt

[Jay Scott]

Congrats to Claude Warren of Saco, Maine on harvesting a giant Nelsoni ram on his Arizona Super Big game raffle sheep tag.  We have lots of great photos and video to post but this photo will have to suffice for now.  AZGFD score is 183 1/8 gross and 179 2/8 Net.  Special thanks to our great friend Fred Ashurst for his hospitality.  Much more to come soon!
