Just got my desert ram back from the taxidermist.
I picked up my desert sheep that I got in Nevada yesterday. Jim from Southwest Taxidermy in Scottsdale, AZ did an excellent job.







Here's a couple of the living room in the house

Beauty, which unit? Jim does my work as well. I think that ram came in when they were finishing up my Bongo last year?

Nice. I may die before I get a sheep tag here (Arizona) Where did the Dall come from?

The dall is from the NWT, and I killed a stone this year in B.C.

Jim does solid work, he's the first guy I've used here in AZ that actually runs it like a business. On time, courteous and fair prices.

Picture of your Stone perhaps?? I'm in the market as well.

The desert sheep was taken with a CZ 550 in 30-06. About a 200 yard shot down hill, and I shot him off hand. He green scored around 165.

The stone was taken with a Rem 700 in, what else a 30-06, 288 yards up hill. He green scored around 165 also.

Great ram. How fortunate you are to have been able to hunt a desert bighorn in the states!
