    How do you know it’s not something special? Are you going on the hunt with him? How do you know it’s not going to b

    And i guess i didn't know you were the one who dictated which comments are immature and which ones are mature .....

    sorry you don’t like being called on your narcissistic comment.

    Meat care from kill to wrapping generally determines flavour in my experience. Sheep are beautiful if I had the economy I would have multiple ewes life sized in my house

    I was taught to take care of your harvest, respect your animal by killing it quickly and cleanly. This was not my first rodeo
    This animal was standing, harvested with a single lung shot from a 7-08 @ 200yds with a 140gr accubond bullet - not shot up with a cannon causing bloodshot or meat loss.
    Taken close to road, moved with a meat cart, cleaned immediately, transported for 3hrs (in November), skinned immediately once home and washed in and out sponged down with not a hair on it (other than required amount) and in the cooler at butcher all within 8hrs total.
    Wasn't dragged through the dirt covered in crap like many are at the butcher.
    Feed is big in determining meat flavour, from my experience. Kind of why cattle go into a feedlot for 3 weeks or so before going under the knife - flavour the meat with some grain to produce tender marbled meat.

    The OP wanted to hear from previous draw holders - i did the exact same hunt and i had meat that was not what i was expecting - that was my experience. I've had dall sheep backstraps which was incredible and my ewe was not like that at all.
    Watch out for the small rams and go get your animal.
