Managed to pull one out of the Brooks , the skeeters were [bleep] terrible. Saw several winterkill full curl rams. We are grateful to come away with one.

How old did they call that? I am thinking 10? Hard to tell with all the base wrinkles. Neat bit of character.
Posted By: BCJR Re: Brooks Ram - 08/21/14
They said 9 , looks like he either started and stopped in the middle, or had a real tough year. Im no sheep expert but they are awesome animals, no doubt.
Posted By: Sitka deer Re: Brooks Ram - 08/21/14
I blew it up and have trouble with 9... could more easily go 11, IMO.

Is the sheep population on the Brooks range as bad as the reports I have been hearing? Did you see good numbers of lambs and Ewes? Find any winter kills? Thanks.

Congrats, nice sheep

A magnificent ram and a mighty fine beard.

Win/win. Congrats!

A very nice ram.......I suspect we are in for some drastic changes in sheep regulations. Drawing for all sheep tags?....five years between tags?.......two sheep per lifetime?

Well, damn. Here I was feeling all proud of myself for today scoring a defunct tundra motor with the parts I need to make my '84 40-hp OMC outboard functional again (starts on 3 pulls EDT! - its the swivel mount I needed) Only took 6 years of looking....

The caribou on the ATV run today were noticeably absent....

Darned nice ram.

Color me jealous.

Nice ram!
Posted By: BCJR Re: Brooks Ram - 08/26/14
Thanks docdb , I really like your ram ,Best part about this hunt is my wife was with me. She tears it up climbing! She is doing another ironman race next year so she is going to try for a sheep in 2016. (her priority's are obviously screwed up smile ) The cool part of her being there is that she is 6 years cancer free now. She did a marathon during chemo , and is one of the toughest people I have ever met. We hiked ten miles out and then up around 2k feet to get this one, didnt phase her, She should have been a sheep guide.
