Most of you are aware a buddy of mine from BC was
drawn for bighorn sheep in Alberta this fall. We were in the Willmore
for a week with no luck and a mid-October hunt fell through. We were
left with a November hunt in the 410 bowzone. We went out on Friday for
the first time in the bow zone, and well, the picture says it all. We
came upon a group of rams and Travis made his first shot at a sheep count.
One to three feet of snow and a 13 hour day made it a challenging hunt that
I'm sure Travis or I, won't soon forget. Travis told me that harvesting
a sheep has been a 14 year quest for him, and getting it with a bow made it
all that much sweeter. The smile says it all. This 10 1/2 year old
ram will score over 160 Pope & Young. Hell of a Sheep!
Congratulations Travis! It was well earned
