Right on man, congrats! I chased them around on Lanai this past Jan. for a couple days, and did get within bow range on one occasion but ended up getting busted, so no shot. They sure are fun to hunt on that island though, along with the Axis deer.The Lanai hunt was awesome! Wind made it BRUTAL with a bow in hand but got it done on this ram.

That is awesome you got out to Lanai! Logistics wise it's a difficult place to hunt. Mouflon are probably the most switch on animal I've hunted. Strolling around it was common for them to spot me at 800-1000 yards and take off in the opposite direction. Their eyesight is incredible.Right on man, congrats!

You drop it off with mos last saturday? He picked up something for me too and I think saw it in the back of his truck. Excellent ram, anything over half curl extremely rare these days they've been hammered the last couple of yearsI did not measure. Forgot to do so He's at the taxidermist now
That is funny! Mos swung by and picked up on Saturday; he must have went straight to your place afterwards. Bojangles- you live on Lanai I take it?You drop it off with mos last saturday?

You planning to get back for one of the mouflon rifle hunts coming up?Ya he did. I'm on Maui but was just over there hunting for a couple days with a friend visiting
No my rifle hunt last fall was poor and I only went deer rifle rifle bc i drew the first weekend and that was poor too. Didn't bother with archery, Things have really gone downhill for deer and rams with the drought and the number of tags given out last couple years so I've kinda given up hunting there for a while. I was even on another part of the island with my friend trying to get him a buck and the numbers were way down there too.You planning to get back for one of the mouflon rifle hunts coming up?
It is a d*mn shame to hear that but that's certainly what has happened on the island.

Headed out on my first sheep hunt (but not for lacking of trying, ~35 years of unsuccessfully trying to draw a Bighorn license here) Saturday.
Dall sheep, Brooks Range- psyched!
