JJL Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 How many years have you been applying for Bighorns? This was my first as a resident. The plumber at work has been applying for 9 with no luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Colorado Bob Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 jjl----I've drawn 2 ram tags. One was in 93 & the other was in 98. I killed a ram in 98-----had to wait 5 years before I could apply again. I've got 3 points & 1 weighted point. CB WYO---I drew a WY moose tag last year. I think NR have a better shot at drawing a WY moose than the Res. I had 7 points & drew in 24. Shot an average bull @ 36" wityh nice palms.

Leo Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 Well... good news is if you didn't get the goat tag, pressure is off to hunt one! Goat country starts where sheep country ends. Guys who get their goat have my respect! Don't think I'm up to handling that physically demanding a hunt anymore. I know there are some gimme places for goats but I don't know where they are and I honestly don't know if I could handle even the easy ones anyhow. I'm living at 25ft above sea level, and having suffered a brain injury in 2003, elevation really KICKS MY TAIL!!! I went to Colorado Springs this past year. Just tagged along with my wife on a conference trip. Fabulous country! I love it there. Colorado, should be on everyones must go list. Even if you can't hunt, you should go! I did find out, the lack of humidity and elevation does affect me strongly. I need a couple days to acclimate. I learned first hand. If I had been on a hunt. I would have been in serious trouble! My water intake quadrupled and eye drops were absolutely necessary! Good luck on that sheep tag! Bighorns are really cool! Ranch sheep are merely the "Light Beer" versions. May be all I get to do. If the Lord wills it, maybe it will be different. I can thank the DHNA for the one I have! I know a guy that has been trying for almost a decade to get that Wyoming Shiras Moose tag and hasn't. He's located a whopper in a specific area and he ain't spilling the beans where. Hope he gets the tag before the moose keels over due to old age! Let me tell you though, you were quite fortunate to get that tag! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
