My Banish 30 e-file went to the ATF 6/6/22 and was approved last week. I received the shipping notification over the weekend. You never now with the ATF. It's really out of SC's hands.

I was hunting one evening in 2001 and was having trouble seeing through my bino's. I contributed it to bad allergies, but when I got home I discovered that one of my contacts had folded in half. I called and booked an appointment for Lasik surgery the next day. I didn't go back to the eye...

You can see the clip attached to my right shoulder strap in this picture without the gun attached. It's easy to snap and unsnap. This hunt was in grizzly country so it was nice having quick easy access to the gun.

Good point Swivelneck. I came close to having the same issue you had so I changed the upper strap for one that I felt was more secure. It has a clip in buckle instead.

Another vote for Gun Bearer. I've been using one since 2006. I bought it for a sheep hunt and now use it on every elk, deer and moose hunt that I go on.

Congrats LBH! Those experiences with your son are priceless. I know that I don't remember much about the size of the animals we took when hunting with my dad, but I still have those great memories to hold on to.

Good luck LBH. Can't wait to see that full curl ram! I don't know anyone that is more deserving than you.

Kyle, I'm so sorry for your loss.

Here are a couple of sites to look at: http://www.huntsforthebrave.org/ http://www.sportsmenforwarriors.org/ Paul

LAST EDITED ON Mar-07-15 AT 08:07PM (MST)[p]Thanks everyone. Larry, yes that was us. He had a great time and I'm sure he would have loved to talk with you. We held a life celebration for my Dad last night (he made us promise, no funeral). A taxidermist made a board for me to display his...

LAST EDITED ON Mar-05-15 AT 10:46PM (MST)[p]This is my favorite picture of my Dad and I on his Stone Sheep hunt in 2004. And this is a photo from his last hunting trip this last fall with my daughter and her first elk.

Larry and Rick, Thank you for the kind words. My Dad was able to attend the Expo and Full Curl event the weekend before last and had a great time. He was so happy to meet old friends and talk about hunting. He hadn't been doing well for the last 10 months and when I told him 4 weeks ago when...

40 years.

LBH, Congrats on the tag. I can't wait to hear how your hunt goes. I know that there are few, if any, that will give that tag the time and attention it deserves like you and your son will. Good luck on the hunt and keep us posted on how the scouting is going. Paul

LAST EDITED ON May-20-14 AT 04:38PM (MST)[p]Congrats on your sons tag!!! It will be an awesome hunt. I'm not familiar with the Zion's unit, but if you haven't sheep hunted, I would suggest hiring a guide. That is the best unit in the state and he has the chance to not only take a ram, but to...

LAST EDITED ON Feb-12-14 AT 07:57AM (MST)[p]Paul, Fantastic mounts!!! Can't wait to see them in person at the expo. For all of you sheep nuts (or knuts) don't miss the full curl society event on Saturday. The only thing that's certain is that you won't draw if your name is not in the...

LAST EDITED ON Dec-09-13 AT 10:20PM (MST)[p]Brian, The best place that I've found to by boots is at the hunting expo in SLC. Most of the guys selling the boots there are hunters if not sheep hunters. Another suggestion would be the Wild Sheep foundation convention in Reno. If you have time...

seeleymt, you are in for the hunt of a lifetime. The must have's are good boots, good raingear (not neccesarly camo), a good back pack, gattors, and as other have said, trekking poles. Boots: I have Lowas and Kenetreks and love them both. Hanwag, Zamberlan, Crispi, Mendle are all great...

What an awesome article. You really earned that ram. You've got my vote.

Matt, Congrats again!! Truly a bull worthy of the tag. Is your wife going to let him in the house?

Sheep talk has been slow lately so I thought I'd resurrect this post. The summer has flown by and I am now two days away from leaving for my Dall sheep hunt. I can hardly believe it. I packed my backpack for the second time last night. Took a few things out to cut weight and hope to have it...

I've never been very good at running so that's out for me. The last four years I've been doing Crossfit 4 To 5 days a week year round. I've found that the increased core strength has really helped when I start hiking. That's the one thing that running alone can't give you. I'm with Zeke on...

LAST EDITED ON May-29-13 AT 02:35PM (MST)[p]I saw a band of about 10 goats on the north side of Taylor Canyon two weeks ago. I was up Taylor again on Saturday and Hidden Valley on Monday and couldn't locate them again. I wouldn't be surprised to see a hunt up there in the next 5 years. Maybe...

I leave for my Dall Sheep hunt in the NWT 7 weeks from today. I can hardly wait!! Mulecreek, it sounds like you'll be hunting Moose and Griz as well. If you have a choice in the matter I would concentrate on the sheep first and leave the others until last. My brother and I hunted Dall sheep...

Rick, I'm feeling for you buddy. I really thought this was going to be your year. I guess your sheep is going to live one more year and throw one more growth ring. He may even hide out in the park until next year so no one else can find him. If I know you, I'm sure you'll spend some time...

LB, congrats on your wife's new duds. Hang in there, they should be hitting cards for a few days. I'm crossing my fingers for you. By the way, I'm heading up to ARRO on July 12th.

LBH, Rick PM sent.

Zeek, Great story and great pictures!! I hope to make it back there someday. My daughter is 12 and is going to hunt deer for the first time this year. I hope I can follow in your footsteps and turn her into a sheep hunter someday.

Treedagain, Thanks for bumping this thread. Here are few more pictures from ARRO(some might be repeats). These are to help Zeke keep is mind off of work for the next week or two before he travels north. Zeke, I can't wait to see pictures from your daughters hunt. You are going to have...

Rick, I agree with you 100 percent on The Full Curl Society. It has been nothing but positive. I am more then willing to donate my $100 a year just to see someone else have the opportunities that I have had to hunt sheep. It was the generosity of others that gave me the chance to obtain the...

Here's a couple of Sunnyside photos from 2009. They sure like to hang out near town in the spring.

Congrats on the Escalante tag. It's a tough hunt in some awesome country. I hunted the area in 2008. My best advice to you is to hire a guide, preferably Randy Johnson if he's not already booked up. No one knows that unit better then him. PM me if you have any questions.

Great story, great pictures, great ram. Congrats!!! Welcome to sheep hunters anonymous.

LAST EDITED ON Apr-30-12 AT 10:35AM (MST)[p]WOW!!! GSCO sent me a "Second Notice" that my membership has expired! If I don't renew now the membership price is going to go up. Oh no! He also states that they had their most successful convention ever in Reno, Nevada this year. What a crock, who...

Zeke, This is one of the best threads I have ever followed on MM. Thanks for getting it started. Kevin awesome photos!!! TJ, the ARRO photos are great. I'll have to post a few more later to help Zeke get ready for his hunt later this year. Here are few photos from my 2009 Utah Rocky...
