    Tipping

    Yep. Never have had a packer though. Just 1 guide for every trip. However, on my Desert Sheep hunt, there was a guide, and then a few more guys that helped out. I spoke with the outfitter as a “one-off”, and we went down the list of the guys, and he actually said 10% might have been high...

    Tipping

    Yeah, cash is king IMO for the guides, wranglers, etc. A lot of ‘em I’ve become good buddies with say typically, they’d rather not have the gear, binos, knives, etc., and instead prefer cash for sure. With that being said, my most expensive hunts have been Brown Bear and 4 sheep hunts, and...

    Differences in Dall, Stone, RM Bighorn, D Bighorn hunts

    Agreed. I’m headed back up to Reynolds (Spencer’s now) August 1st for my second time and can’t wait. He’s still very reasonable as it pertains to the current state of “sheep pricing” for his Dall/Fannin hunt. But not sure what the future year’s pricing is and how far out bookings are. If ya...

    Sheep Camp Event at Western Hunting Expo

    Don’t have to be there the 4 hours. Doors open at 9 a.m., but the event actually starts at 11:00 a.m. There are tons of raffles and stuff going on leading up to the start. They usually begin by conducting some game and giving away a sheep hunt. After that, they start announcing raffle winners...

    Transporting Taxidermy

    I’ve had a ton of stuff come in big, enclosed trailers and also 18-wheelers (Trophy Transport) all the way across the country on 2-3 week trips. They all are packed like you’re saying with padding wrap and foam in between. I think it’ll be just fine like you mentioned above.

    Differences in Dall, Stone, RM Bighorn, D Bighorn hunts

    Long ways to sheep hunting from West Virginia! Everything these guys have said above about the habitats, hunting, and outfitters is spot on. Only thing I’d add is I’ve been fortunate enough to get both thinhorns and a desert, and have hunted in AK and the Yukon for sheep. But don’t discount...
