2025 WY Sheep Hunt

Congrats on the ram!
But holy crap dude, do you know what the cape on mature ram is worth? Can't believe you just whacked his head off!

I just looked. Ouch! Maybe a PSA for future tag holders. A sheep cape could pay for a lot of things and a full body skinned could buy you a nice used ATV. I had no idea.

I haven't got him checked in yet, but I'd say he's 6, 7

I'm getting 7.5 for sure, but thinking probably 8.5. Hard to see the lines when they get closer to the base but don't think he could have grown that much the last year.

Congrats on a great ram, and having the help along that you did.

 

[MTLabrador]

Congratulations! That’s a great ram.

A bird in the hand and all that. Good shot.

I love it how we have to go out in hunting boots, pants, etc, but our kids are cool in sneakers and pajamas...

Ain't that the truth

Checked him today. Bios aged him at 8.

I think being 14 yards from a mature ram and pulling the trigger with my daughter and her friend makes for a pretty damn cool story! Congratulations!

Forgot a pic. I have no idea why people pose with their rams this way and I think it looks stupid.

 

[sneakypete]

Congrats

 

[El Jason]

I get 8.5 too. And yeah that last pose is horrific.

Nice work dad!

Beautiful ram, Carl. Better take your daughter with you as much as you can, she seems to be a pretty fine good luck charm.

That just doesn’t look like what I think of when I hear “sheep country”.

 

[Mica Man]

Congrats on the ram! Ptetty special that your daughter and her friend got to tag along.

 

[Silentstalker]

Wow! To kill a bighorn ram with your daughter is such a cool accomplishment. Congrats!

 

[duckhunt]

Congrats

 

[wytex]

Congrats Carl, nice ram !!
That looks like the area we saw several rams one year looking for deer, they just looked at us too.

Way cool the daughter was with you too, again congrats.

 

[EastTNHunter]

Big congrats! Great story

Got the hide fleshed (power washer works great), salted, and off to the tannery. Don't mind the holes.
