so lets talk sheep hunting..

How long did it take you to draw the first time?

I drew my first year eligible 3+0 in GT. Still looking for that goat tag at 3+11

Sounds like you might have a chance to hunt lower 48 sheep twice in your lifetime
For me I think the wilderness hunts in Idaho and Montana would be my only chance at 2 lower 48 sheep hunts unless I got lucky or lived a long time....

I'm young and only have a couple sheep points in each state. Im applying in every state I can and putting in a few raffle tickets in a few states a year as well. Maybe I never will draw but I'm sure going to try ......

Im 28.. I wish i had been putting in the last 10 years like i should have.. I am starting this year and will put in for Idaho, Nevada, Colorado, and montana. I hope to draw a tag once in my life

Nevada NR can put in for Desert and Cali Bighorns, our Rockies are for Residents only. Most of the units that NR can put in for are the better ones.
Here are a couple pics from my California bighorn hunt two years ago.

Inches. Not unit.

 

[NVCHUKAR]

Haha ok you named a unit with sheep though, green score almost spot on. It dried to a 159B&C

 

[Coveyleader]

Wow does that look dry...... Looks like Peru. Water had to be an issue and it looks like that would have been a tough bowhunt.

Thats what the lower 48 desert and cali rams live in. There is actually a lot of water in the area for an average sheep mountain. The deserts like even drier places. Although I was close enough to shoot at the first group of rams with a bow I used a rifle on my ram.
