Dall sheep doable for under 25k ?

[craig Holland]

Am I unrealistic in trying to find a dall sheep hunt for under 25k with a decent outfitter?

Yes sadly

So I’ve seen the insane prices for sheep hunts and I just have to ask what makes them so damn expensive? Is it a supply vs demand issue or is the cost due to side stepping a decades long wait on a tag?

Its supply and demand for Dalls. There is no shortage of guys with $30-40k burning a hole in their pocket to shoot a sheep. If you ask an outfitter, they don't make any money off a hunt though.

The decline in dall sheep populations hasn't helped slow the increase of costs either.

I have seen an outfitter blow hundreds of thousands of dollars after season on his own hunts on IG. I know it's sarcastic but they are doing above average in my opinion.

I would just go do a mtn goat or mtn caribou hunt for that coin.

Or they are swapping enough hunts to get those hookups at least.

That sounds more realistic.
