Over 50 years of application denial and finally getting to go!

[rooseiu55]

My grandfather, George Richardson, has finally drawn his sheep tag! Gramps, as everyone calls him, has been putting in since the 60's with no luck and was a max point holder.

 

Gramps has been on all 4 sheep hunts that my family has drawn through the years, and now it is finally his turn.

 

Gramps turns 80 on Nov 1st and will be spending the month of December in 44BN chasing rams with his bow.

 

My Gramps is in extremely great shape for any man, let alone an 80 year old, but this unit is going to be perfect for him. Lots of sheep, potential for big ramps, and plenty of archery conducive terrain.

 

Can't wait!

Have to admire anyone who'll hunt sheep with a bow. Double that for someone 80. Best of luck to you!

Awesome! I hear there is at least one monster they didn't kill last year. Great hunt!
