OK Boys, Give it to me straight. How much does a decent Dahl sheep hunt run?? What are the success rates?? I am in Utah so I believe I'd be required to have a guide.

I just had back surgery at the ripe old age of 28 and I think by next year I'll be able to do it. Got to get my dream before I can't.

Thanks,
Mike

You can start by buying preference points in Utah for $5. Cheap!

Hello!!!! There ain't no Dall Sheep in the Lower 48 no matter how many preference points you have.....Canada or Alaska. Expect to pay, in Alaska where you are required to have a guide, a minimum of $7500 up to $10,000 depending on how tough you are...pack-back hunts being the cheapest and on up. Sucess depends on how picky you are over the legal size but I would expect 80%+.

Alaska is usually the least expensive, $7K-$9K. Yukon and NWT, $9K-$12K. From my own research, NWT outfitters seems to be consistantly putting out the biggest sheep on average (38-40). Their prices also tend to be the highest. Usually starting at about $10K. You also have to decide if you want a backpack hunt or horseback hunt. Most of Alaska is BP only. Yukon hunts are almost all HB. NWT hunts are about half and half. TTS

Thanks guys. I have seen the sheep South of Anchorage a few times and I have always wanted to get one. Steep money, but memoties last forever.
