Return to Ram Nation #5
When we last left our heroes, the big ram was 350 yards away, the ram I had picked out 250 yards. Mine was hidden from sight behind a small spine. We tried to work into a position where we could see both rams at the same time but at our movement the big ram looked right up at us. We decided Scott better shoot before our cover was totally blown. The first priority was the big ram and we'd see about another one after that. Scott got a good rest and from 330 yards put two rounds into the ram's boiler room. One ram down.

That's a beautiful animal. Congrats. Also, little side thought. Do the horns interfere with their peripheral vision? Seems like they might... just sayin'.
Thanks. I bet the horns do block their vision to some extent. I bet some rams break their horns off just for that reason. The possible lack of peripheral vision though is made up for by 8x vision.
Steve,
You blow me away with your sheep hunting ability and true grit for adventure. What a ram !!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats to both of you guys. I gotta believe your rams was well into the 160 range which is a ram of a lifetime.
God blessed you guys BIGTIME !
8x vision?! No wonder you have to sneak up ninja style.
Yes, but we have binoculars and spotting scopes. Kind of levels the playing field a bit.
