First Ram
Fought hard for this guy with a 7 day hunt, 26km deep. Very happy with the work from Brian at Artistic Taxidermy. First rams live forever!

Thanks guys! It was a heavy pack-out for sure. The excitement helps keep the feet moving. Brian was awesome to deal with and added my casing in for personal touch.

Thanks everyone! I was shooting a 7mm RM Christensen Ridgeline. Just sold it a couple weeks ago actually. Great gun, just a bit much for packing around.

Thanks everyone! I had put the story down on paper and sent it to Rob who edits for the AO magazine. If he doesn’t use it I will post it up here for some entertainment through the pandemic.
