Who on here has had success with sheep and archery gear? Always been a diehard archery fan at heart
Bonus points for using traditional equipment

I love the idea of taking one with archery gear myself .. but having never been lucky enough to go, and realizing my arse probably going to get kicked hard will definitely be bringing a rifle..

But just wanted see who has been lucky enough

Do ewes count? Got lucky in 2022 and drew a ewe/lamb tag under a new season that was created. I've got a long ways to go on points so it'll likely be my only sheep hunt. Found a decent band of lambs and ewes just before archery season that got me motivated to do some further scouting with my bow. A few days of trying and learning their movement patterns and things came together. Think there was a good deal of luck involved too, but certainly one of the coolest hunts I've ever had.20220827_155400 (2).jpg20220827_155412 (2).jpg

Can you give us the rundown on his stalk and shot? I can't remember if he did an article...I thought he did.
Yea he wrote it up on here and even wrote an article or eastmans magazine i think. They were in a little narrow cut in some pretty rock cliffy stuff. He climbed up above them and took a frontal shot at about 20 yards from what i remember. The ram actually ran towards where we were glassing. We could see blood spraying out of the front of his chest. It was glorious. It died about 50 yards behind us.

Some dandy rams above! WOW!!!

I've been lucky enough to take 5 rams with my bow over the past 43 years of hunting them (23 tags if I am counting correctly). Two bighorns from CO, one Nevada NR Desert Bighorn, a British Columbia Stone...the first four rams were taken DIY. Also a guided (Canol Outfitters) NWT Dall to complete an Archery Grand Slam back in 2017.
