Stone in the good old days

I do not think I will ever come across one like this, but who knows. Maybe there is a little pocket up north no one has set foot in.

Adam,

We can all hope for such an opportunity.

What a beautiful ram!

Best,
Curl

Great pics, Adam. Thanks for sharing. Gotta love those old hunting photos.

You can't ever tell what ram might be coming out of the inaccessible crags during a high country storm when you are set up in the next valley. Just takes being in the right area at the right time and making the shot.

Any legal sheep taken in fair chase, hard hunt is a magnificent animal and one to be proud of.

Great pics Adam..........here's an old one from Outdoor Life.........Jack O'Connor, listed as the first sheep hunter to legally take a Grand Slam........more importantly, he wrote the greatest stories of his hunts and made dreamers out of kids who took those dreams to the high country continuing O'connor's legacy.



They don't make 'em like him anymore.

Full curls and double curls!! Lord have mercy. Almost all the pics posted nowadays are 3/4 curls at best. Looks like all the really big trophies have been harvested and that's it.
