Those are some beautiful sheep Ripp. What are the hunting possibilities for them in Montana? Just for residents?

It is very difficult to draw Big Horn sheep tags--it is a draw only for Big Horns, Goats and Moose in Montana.. I have been applying for 18 years--did draw a Mountain Goat a few years back--got an awesome specimen--which made Boone and Crockett...Will post a pic if you want when I get to the office tomorrow morning of him mounted in my Trophy room.

Non-residents can apply however your odds of drawing are very low--you can buy what is called the "Governors Tag" which is auctioned off every year--you can hunt in any unit in the state if you get it-- the auction price is quite high--can be in excess of $100,000 US..

For best results I apply in most states in the West every year..Wyoming really does have a better chance to draw Big Horn tags as they have a bonus point system--with the points I have accumulated there I am almost certain to draw in the next few years..I also apply in Utah, Colorado, Idaho, Arizona and New Mexico--all for different species..

Thanks

Ripp
