Lazz toting bighorn busting buddy

Jim,
Thanks for sharing Scott's story. It seems like when we worry about the long shots, they walk within 200 yards. I bet he is thrilled. Send my congrats to Scott.

After he killed his ram they took the horns and cape and what meat they could carry out at night ( had to w alk a spell back to the mules ) and then came back the next day for the res t to discover that a lion had visited and ate during the night . The fall the ram took broke about 2" off of one side and an inch or so off the other at the tips . Scott is a tough fella but he said he had never experienced such a demanding hunt physically.

What load did you decide on just out of curiosity?

Tell Scott ongradulations on the harvest. Also, congradulations on being soooo lucky to get one of 13 Bighorn tags in the state, and the only one in that unit.
Do you have any specifics on what area he was hunting?
Just curious because I will be just a few miles south of there in 2 weekends hunting Javelina. Might have to take a drive up to the mountains near Alma, NM. Maybe some day someone I know will draw for a sheep hunt. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
