Have you ever cancelled a hunt or know someone who has?

Congratulations on an awesome ram! I remember reading through this thread a while back. Pleased to see you ended up going. So…What kind of mount are you getting?

Probably a pedestal, either freestanding or wall. I tried to convince the wife a full body was in order but she wasn't having it, lol. And honestly, that's a good chunk of money that can stay in the hunting trip fund. I might consider having some replica horns cast for the shoulder mount and keep the original skull as-is. I honestly enjoy holding the horns as much as I do looking at a shoulder mount, so might just do both.

I would highly recommend the replica. That is what I did. I put the replicas in the wall pedestal I had done and kept the real horns on the euro
 
Great writeup, awesome hunt and sheep. I feel you on the draw back home, as much as I want to stay in the mountains, sometimes it just doesn't make sense.

I'm going to do a replica of my Idaho ram as well, expensive but I think it will be cool to still be able to put your hands on the horns. And, I know plenty of people that will never get to hold them and feel the weight otherwise.
