Really appreciate your sharing of this. What a specimen !
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

Very nice. I sure enjoy folks having success and a great trip! Nice when they get a heck of an animal on top of it. Sometimes I often think that those that stress about the size, don't ever find a big one, those that are out to enjoy God's creation, relaxing and taking it all in so to speak, get an extra blessing every so often.

No question about that being a legal ram.  Trophy of several lifetimes!

Gotta agree with Rost! And I've seen pics of a larger ram from TMA this year with another great story. And a similar ram out of DCUA........a great season for big rams.

I"m hoping to claim you good folks as fellow statesmen in about a year or so... I'd just love to get out there and watch eventually. If I'd ever get a tag, that would be even gravy on top of that.

Good for you. But even better for the OP. He and his FIL actually went out and did it, rather than know someone who did. Really nice ram, and well done. Congrats! Jeff

All legal rams are a trophy especially if taken by an old phardt on first hunt.
Not many road kill rams out there!

A close family member killed her second sheep this year. Her first was spectacular and from the AK Range, well over B&C All-time minimum. This years ram smokes that one....
She spent weeks finding it and waited for two weeks for it to do something foolish.

That is a dandy ram, by any measure.

Awesome Ram. Looks like the draw odds went from .05% to .001% for that tag.. I want to go sheep hunting.

That's a beautiful ram.
Also, that's a damn nice camp.
