Killed a Bighorn Sheep solo at 13k. Fitness programs available no charge

[TommyTheCat5150]

As stated, I trained for a summer to successfully kill a bighorn solo at 13K in Colorado. Can help understand good training choices over bad ones.
Solid knowledge of nutrition and mobility as well.

I train endurance and ultra-endurance mountain sports athletes for a living.
Recreational, amateur and world class professionals.
I've been specializing in this for over 15yrs.

I can say for certain that none of what have accomplished or tout above means you know how to safely, effectively and efficiently train other people.
Good Journey!

Good for you. I don't really care to be honest. I fought MMA for a decade with tremendous coaches and spent hundreds of hours with top level trainers. Im trying to be positive on this forum with a post(offered free) and met with haters within an hour. I hunted my bighorn for 16 days in a row. Carried 38lbs daily and climbed to 13500ft daily. No injuries, no twisted ankles, no knee pain no shoulder pain. Yall are haters and you know it. Im a new guy to the forums and just learned that there are plenty of bottom feeders here just like on the mountain.

And thats how u make an entrance.

What was the key for your success? Due u have your own valley to train in?

Congrats on your ram. This place is no different than anywhere else, when you come out flexing your likely to get met with resistance.

What part of CO did you find that timber at 13k feet?

 

[Slick8]

Dude, congrats on the RAM but you came in way strong as a new guy here.

Perhaps a couple other post introducing yourself and a truly good recap of your sheep hunt to get the ball rolling.

And PLEASE, post a better pic of the Ram. Most of us only dream of hunting such an animal and would never think of showing it in such a manner as yours.

What's the typical tree line elevation in CO?

 

[Eagle]

about the highest you'll see scrub pine is 12k, so yeah, he's full of it.

 

[WyOwen]

Wow.. this is gonna be a good one

 

[svivian]

If your training program doesn’t include your own canyon to use I’m not interested pal.

 

[iamthenick]

More importantly, what caliber did you shoot it with?

Any programs for how to improve strength to increase what calibers i am capable of shooting?

I've been stuck shooting .223 for a few years and I'm just not strong enough to shoot any Magnum calibers. It's starting to destroy my confidence and affect my sex life at home.

Ill throw some gasoline on this garbage fire...

Ive also never hunted sheep before
Had 5 pref pts only
Just picked the unit randomly as well

I killed a ram solo with a muzzy at 12.4k a few years ago about 5 miles from the truck. Guess I’m not nearly as cool….

Your prob pretty cool honestly. Congrats on the Ram. Not sure what I'm doing to be cool. My coaches always told me it's not bragging if it's true.

 

[atmat]

Whole lotta greenery in that photo for >13k feet.

 

[ElDiablito]

Congrats, though, seriously. It’s an awesome accomplishment. Big question is how old were you?!

Jealous?

I’m pretty sure @B_Reynolds_AK has killed quite a handful of sheep.
