Sorry man, I posted a thread back in August, this was just some new photos. I think most of the details are there, I can't paste a link for some reason but it's in General Big Game, titled "2,000 Words." When I say "hunt of a lifetime," I'm just talking about how long I'll keep posting photos.....

enjoyed the write up smokepole
tks for the link Chris
just outstanding!
hard earned rams are long remembered.
sans 1 time, don't think I've ever killed a sheep that at some point during the pack out I didn't think to myself "F this, too hard, I'm too old, this is the last one"
