Wow - Congratulations on such a great ram !! A great trip !!!

thanks ya guys it was a trip of a life time i've never seen so many animals in one area it was nuts between the elk deer and sheep seen lots of sheep and tuns of elk i think every day we seen up to 200 elk we seen two bulls that were in the 300 mark or bigger and then the ram i got there was two of them and both about the same same so it was a quick decision and i shot them at 50 yards we were hiking up the mnt to get tem and they walk right down the mnt to us that was kinda nice did not have to go all the way to the top of the mnt to get them so when i spotted them i had to make up my mind on witch one quick so i did and that was the ram i took.

You will never forget it. Congrats on a great ram and a great season. Wish I could have seen him fall. How are you going to top that season. Maybe a Rosi Elk draw on the island! You lucky bugger!!:biggrin:
