Good to see the TMA is still producing good rams...!!! :topjob:

We counted 9 rams on the first day of hunting. We got dropped on Monday, spotted this guy on Tuesday and were able to seal the deal Thursday night. We counted over 60 sheep total in 3 days. Going to work on a hunt report one of these days. Still playing it all back in my mind.


Even have a scar to remember this hunt for a long time!!

Put my 11 year old in for a cow moose hunt on the Tanana Flats. She drew one of the 20 early season tags and we hunted a total of 4 days. We connected with this cow on the 27th. She used the same .243 that her sister and two cousins all used for their first moose. She missed the first shot, calmed down and drilled her on the second shot. The cow dropped like a sack of potatoes.

Good on you Jerod. She will appreciate the dinners much more knowing that she provided the meat.

Well I can't top Chris' ram....but I walked a little farther for mine! HA! What it lacks in inches it makes up for in sweat equity!!!!!! My first ram, and glacier hunt. 34 miles round trip, 27 of them on glaciers. Something I will never forget. Special thanks to my hunting partner, Blake, for capturing some killer pictures.

Taking the shot.

You aren't kidding! He made a great 160 yard shot.

Here is a pic looking down to the boat from where the goat dropped. STEEP !

We were almost directly across on another knife-edge ridge from where the goat was when he shot.
