Kamloops Lake Sheep Draw
Backtrack to when the draws come out every year, I'm always quickly disappointed on a regular basis like the majority of hunters. This year though, when my phone app bugled I was driving at work and once I arrived I quickly signed in and luckily the website wasn't slow yet from the onslaught of thousands of hunters all trying at the same time.
Of course myself, I received the big goose egg. Then I had to call the wife and ask for her log in as I cant remember it. I clicked on LEH and looked down the list. There at the bottom I noticed a "successful" so I quickly looked left to see what species. And when I read MOUNTAIN SHEEP my jaw hit the floor. I didnt even know what draw she was entered in for. I knew I had put myself in for spences bridge I thought but couldnt remember what she wanted.
So I clicked the successful draw, and there in bold KAMLOOPS LAKE RAM 3-29A
You have to be sh*tting me hahahaha, 1 in 700.
So between all the jumping up and down, my non hunting coworkers staring at me like I'm a wildman, I phoned Christy and gave her the good news.
After much research and talking to a few of the guys in the know. I went up and did some scouting.
I found these beauties. The right one is an absolute monster. And I was able to get under 100 yards of them which would be perfect for my wife.
1st Im in charge, and if not Matt is. Your job is to sign checks, tell us we're doing good and open your case of scotch after a good day. 2nd my fee. You can keep it, all I want in exchange for my service is the right to hunt all the drakes. A male. Buck only. Why and how are my business. If you don't like it, go alone. Set up right here or in a swamp or in the middle of a noshoot field for all I care. I've been on too many duck hunts with rich dentists to listen to any more suicidal ideas. Ok?
