Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game Let's talk about sheep...

I started hunting sheep back when the Montana Unlimited tag areas were open from the first of September through the end of November, and many years some of the units did not fill their quotas. Unfortunately, I thought those seasons would last forever, and I didn't hunt them too seriously.

I did, however, get lucky a few years and got my rams. The rams in the Unlimited areas generally are not as large as rams in the limited draw units, but they're still sheep, and it was great hunting them. These Bighorns were all DIY hunts, and most years I went in by myself.




I also did a backpack Dall sheep hunt in the MacKenzie Mountains in Canada's Northwest Territories and lucked out with this 39"+ ram.
