Eh good morning. Just got back from 10 days in the hills. Seen every animal imaginable almost, except rams, again lol.
Curious on if any of you sheep hunters have ever seen rams hang around salt licks before? We seen a ton of goats, Billy's, nannys and kids, along with a lot of ewes and lambs, all hanging around these salt licks, but no rams?
in your sheep hunting experience, has anyone seen rams use Salk licks frequently? Or will they stay away with so much other game around? The whole mountain we were concentrating on was full of holes and caves where we would watch goats and ewes and lambs go into constantly, sometimes they would sit in them all day long licking rock.
Was hard holding off on one of these nice Billy's in my hopes of a 10" winter goat this year. But hopefully get some insight on rams and salt licks, for maybe next year.... Yay or nay?
A few of the Billy's I passed on , the one there is kinda haunting me lol.
