[QUOTE="BighornRam, post: 1068391, member: 46585"] are you a resident or non resident? The best area will depend on what type of hunt you want to have. Area 19 is tough access but has some big rams and will take max to draw. Area 12 on the west slope of the Bighorns is a pickup truck hunt if you pay the trespass fee. lots of rams with some Montana genetics. A 180 class ram taken in 2013 and a legally blind hunter got a 160+ ram in 14. He saw over 100 rams on the 2 day hunt. Quota is going up to 4 in 2015. Area 1 is coming back in quality with a large ram taken in 14. Area 2 is the roughest country but producing great rams every year. Area 4 is down for numbers from past years. area3 is still producing nice rams but not like its best years 5-10 years ago. I will draw in area 5 this year, hunted it many times and it is down from years past but size seems to be holding. Always lots of sheep and plenty of country to separate yourself from other hunters. Also sheep in non wilderness areas to go unguided for nonresident. Area around Newcastle has plenty of sheep but few tags and will take max points and won't have a nonresident tag every year. Lots of good outfitters for main sheep areas,1-5. Look at 7D ranch, Meade Dominick. Has taken some of the largest rams in WY last several years but more than that you will have a great hunt with quality people and great equipment.
