Just me packing in camp
I started hunting about 12 years ago when I got married and have anticipated the hunting season each year since then. When asked what I wanted to put in for the once in a lifetime draw the answer was easy, desert sheep. My grandpa was an adventurer and spent thousands of days hiking the southern deserts of Utah. He loved and admired the grace and agility of these animals and felt grateful when he was able to see them in the desert country that he loved. From his stories and experiences, and a few of my own, I have gained that same love and admiration. I anxiously look forward to the day I will be able to hunt these amazing animals. This year part of my sheep fever will be satisfied, not on the desert sheep that I thought would be my first sheep hunt, but on a sheep I never thought I would be able to hunt.
At the introduction of the Full Curl Society hosted at the Western Hunting and Conservation Expo, I listened to the presentation explaining the mission and future of the Full Curl Society by Don Peay and Karl Malone. I liked what I heard, especially about their desire to help the average, everyday man fulfill his dream of hunting sheep. After it was over I made the decision to sign up and donate my $40 to the cause. I was one of the last people to put in my ticket. As luck would have it, my ticket was the first drawn from the quarter curl bucket. I was going to hunt dall sheep! Ten hunts were given away; four of them were to women. It was an emotional high and I still can't believe I'm going sheep hunting!
Still on a high the night I drew the sheep hunt, and my awesome husband who introduced me to hunting.
In addition to sheep hunting there are some good prospects for the archery deer season and I am looking forward to the archery spike elk hunt. I'll have to share my spike elk hunt from last year in a later post. It was one of my favorite hunts.[/img]
