As far as limiting some factors on sheep hunting I agree with 100%. Sure its maybe my right to hunt sheep but I have a bigger right to want to see them flurish. My passion is with Bighorns more so than hunting them. Thats why I spend so much time in the mountains in the off season.

So you fought hard in areas you hunted because you didn't want opportunity taken away from you even though there waas evidence that the population could not withstand a general season. Why on earth would you do that? It couldn't hurt could it?
All of the other species were put on draw because of concern over population numbers. There was a sound management reason. I've seen no indication from SRD that sheep numbers are in peril from hunters.. If I do, I'd join your crusade to reduce the harvest. I won't do it because "it can't hurt."
