I would go with the Lowa's, mine are Schnee's Sheep Hunters but I think Lowa calls them GTX Extremes.

I have Danner's, Kenetrecks, you name it and nothing comes close to the Lowa. I use mine hard chuckar hunting and if they work for that they'll work for any hunting.











Stay thirsty my friends

While I am a big Lowa fan their Wide may not be wide enough for you. In that case take a look at the Danner Mountain Assault Boot which is available in a true EE width.

It is a nice stiff mountain boot but it is not insulated so take sock thickness into account when you try them on.

I love my Lowa Tibet's but they are heavy. I have really started to look at the Lowa Clevendale they are amazingly light. Either one of these will do you great in sheep country

The Cevedale is a very nice boot but I would not describe it as light and they run a little narrow. They are not offered in a wide version either.

Comparing them to the Tibet they are light.

I have both and they each weigh about 2 pounds per boot. Granted my Cevedsles are a half size larger to account for the narrower last but my Tibets are are also wide versions so I figure it is a wash. If the Cevedales are lighter at all it isnt by much according to my reading of the scale.

Both are outstanding boots in my opinion.
