That is a fine ram, taken with a 270, one of my favorites.
Thanks for taking us along.

Yetti, Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for your service. Really though, .270 is the classic, old school round for NA sheep.

Wow. Just wow.
Thanks for taking the time to write this up for those of us who will likely never have a chance to make this adventure. Congratulations on a great ram, and thanks again. CT

My hat is off to you sir and your outfitter. You went on a REAL hunt. Worked hard and were rewarded with a great ram, went home without a moose but seem very happy with your hunt. Unfortunately many of your fellow hunters would have demanded a moose too, requiring far more use of aircraft (spotting) We need more hunters like your self.Thanks for the great story.

Thanks so much for sharing your great adventure with us! Sure makes me wish I was about a hunnert years younger.
Great memories you will have.
The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.
