Not a sheep hunter but ive seen some videos were they've had anywhere from 6 to 10 guys looking for a ram for one tag holder. Sounds like an expensive hunt and others doing the hunting for the shooter. Sheep dosen't stand much of a chance.

Lots of competition. Not sure if you have any outfitters hunting with clients in your area but if you do they will hunt hard and put in the time. They can be brutal competition. Ya there will be some but we will have worked just as hard. Couple of heritage type tags can't hunt the unit this year so thats good

Another nice ram there! I am with the one the hunter likes so far from your pictures.

We should be able to hit 170 and up haven't seen 180 yet but genetics are there. I think this one will score a little better. Carries his mass out more.

From what i have read a 170 class ram is a trophy for the average hunter. Anything above that would be a bonus. I know if I'm ever lucky enough to pull a tag i would be extremely grateful for a shot at a 170ish ram. Great pics.
Still waiting on the Arizona sheep and mule deer draw. Last hope for the year to draw a sheep tag.

I'd be droppin the hammer on either one, even on the first hour of the first day. Both look like slammers to me. That hunters got to be getting excited!
