Tanner, if you can locate the leak in your neoair pad, it can be patched with a little swatch of stuff-sack nylon and seam grip. I have a repair that's going on 4 years old and doing fine.

I'm gonna' need to dunk that sucker in the tub to find it but it may be doable. Thanks for the heads up there. Was thinking Tenacious Tape might work too.
Kaboku, I just ruined my shorts. That mount does look to be a fair bit older than 5 years old, however.

Jerry (Vek) on here, has seen Doug's Sheep and can tell you that his big sheep in his garagemajhal is nuts. It is next to a big wood stove.

hide looks 30 years old. LOL To be clear, I was asking about the ram's age when he was killed.

Nice post, story and pics. Really enjoyed reading about your hunts up there. Can we get a review on the camo wife beater?

Yeah, let's have a review on the wife beater and those primo goggles your hunters are all wearing too.

Nice break down Tanner!! Surprised you went with the 300 wsm over your 308 Kimber to save some weight Westcomb jackets are legit!! Love mine still man. Did you find the grab it handy? I find after ordering a couple over the years I never really used it for anything the straps on the outside of the pack couldn't do for me so I sold them. Thanks for the gear list breakdown man! Again congrats on another awesome season

The tank top is a revolutionary piece of gear. Doesn't keep you warm, doesn't keep you dry, doesn't really do anything except look absolutely awesome. So I've got that going for me, which is nice.
Luke, I agree on the WC jackets... Mine has been awesome!
I use the Grab-It way more than I thought I would. I'd say my spotting scope is tucked away in it about 90% of the time in order to have fast access to it in case a critter needs to be examined real quick. Also, I stick my Wiggy's Waders in their stuff sack on top of the spotter and cinch the whole deal up most times. It stays really slick to the pack which is nice. I kind of like it even if there's no gear in it to help cinch the pack up even tighter if it's compressed for a shorter hunt, too.
looks like you guys had a great season too, congrats!
Tanner

Tanner,
Great pictures, write-up, and gear run-down. There's so much new gear out there it's good to hear the no-schitt about what works, and what doesn't.
Living the dream brother! Keep at it!
Oh, just curious, what mountain range/area you working in? Don't need to be real specific, just curious. Thx.

thomas- Is that sheep's left horn broomed? Hard to tell here. Tanner, When you go to sleep, imagine this ram that was taken from where you guide five years ago. The hunter, who is my cousin, has taken four rams above 174 BC and has never entered a single one.
