Guys,
This is why I joined the Wild Sheep Foundation as a life member. I investigated various groups - DU, RMEF, GSC/Ovis (bad outfit), and others. I joined Wild Sheep Foundation, Dallas Safari Club and NRA as a life member or higher due to their transparency and commitment to what we, as hunters should be about.

This is a link to their annual report detailing where every dollar went and what they do.

I double dog dare every other "conservation" outfit out there to be this transparent.

Good group for sure. I am looking forward to going to the sheep show for the first time this month...

Which makes it even more curious why such a group would be a sponsor of a show like The Best of the West that airs episodes of someone attempting a head shot on a grizzly bear at over 500 yards . . . or more generically . . . taking extreme long range shots at animals with a meaningful chance of wounding or maiming the animal. It is disappointing that the WSF would not sponsor shows that portray hunters acting in a more responsible and ethical manner.

Mike,
I agree and plan to address at the sheep show.

The Wild Sheep Foundation is definitely one of the top conservation organizations in the world.

Mike, the WSF, Gunwerks, and The Best of The West are all based in Cody, Wyoming. Might be some small town overlapping buddies there.

I sent them an email, but have not heard back. Although we have been right in the middle of the holidays.
