Go get 'em Roscoe!
From a fellow Arkansan trapped in Georgia, who's hunted the Brooks and taken wolf and sheep.
It's a blast,
Don

Heading to the Brooks on the 25th. Can't wait to chase those glorious white monarchs. Got drawn for a Grizz too, so I'm really, really excited.

Heading out next Monday to help a good friend fill his sheep tag in the Talkeetnas then i'm off on the 28th to the DCUA to find myself a 40"er. If I see a wolf or a bear while on either hunt I am going to put a hole in them.

My son drew a tag to hunt sheep on a walk in hunt a few miles behind our house in Eagle River.
First we are headed to the Koyukuk to chase moose (about 500 miles running the river each direction) and the day after we return he goes in to chase a dall.


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

Rhyme of the Sheep Hunter
May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick.
And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too.
May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep.
May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip.

You are a sick and evil man. How can you post one picture of an INCREDIBLE ram like that. We want details and more pictures. He looks like he is over 40"...

That's one hell of a ram!!!! I had two guys stop in Barney's yesterday. They each took rams in the Brooks I believe. One just missed 170".
