I'll likely hunt with United States Outfitters for a week or so anyhow. If I don't get lucky, I'll stay and just hunt on my own.

This is the Ram I killed in 2007 at Cadomin, last week in October, toughest hunt I have been on as well. Best year of hunting that I have had yet, got married in August, went Antelope hunting 10 days before killing this Ram, killed a 195" Mule in November and my brother killed a 185" gross whitetail as well. It will be a hard year to beat but I will definately keep trying. Great photos guys, keep them coming.

TJ: Sweated like a beast. Shot at 2:30ish and got back to the truck at 2:45. Unfortunately that wasn't simply 15 minutes later  . A very long pack and a VERY good friend to help with it.

Pretty sure many of you have seen these before. I will put up a few from when I guided in the NWT as well. Enjoy!
My hunting mentors Dall. Took me out hunting when I was 15. Was a real thrill to return the favor
Another friend that came up to hunt in 2007. One of the best sheep hunts I've been on.
A great Dall from 2006.
My first sheep ever, 2004

Good old days is right sg, man the memories. One day when I hit the rocker, I can definatley say I have lived a good life, until then, I am still makin' the memories... 
All rams were taken Muskwa/Prophet River areas, home of the " Chadwick Ram "

Best time Ever
Thanks sheepguide, That hunt with my boys was one of those days I hope they never forget. We hiked in before light, got snowed on, and then made a mad climb up a slope most of my huntimg buddies wouldn't go up. It was sure a proud day for me. The best part, they never complained and even willingly helped Dad pack out some of the meat. Just a great day.

Age over length. After judging legality I wouldn't think twice. :-)
Of course from a ways away, it wouldn't be so easy to count the year rings.

I agree Frans, the length was just a statement. Not alot of rams reach that age. Good luck and hope to see you holding them horns this fall.
