Drawing a tag is an accomplishment in itself! I'll be following this with interest. Please let us know how the hunt turns out too!!! :grin:
I put in for goat and sheep here in Washington again - but the odds are against me living to 140 so I can draw a tag. :wink:

dkmlever,
Congrats on that tag ! A phenominal experience you're about go through if you've never hunted these great animals.
Mind me asking how many years it's taken you? My hunting buddy & I both drew archery tags last year for the Georgetown area.
The only real advice is start doing alot of leg exercises :grin:
The one thing that I really took away from last year is that Sheep can see very and I do mean VERY well for a REALLY long ways!
Don't hesitate to ask questions - certainly happy to help where I can.

dkmlever,
Your cartridge and scope will be up to the task. Good choice. Again, best of luck as you approach this hunt.

Congratulations you lucky dog! I saw this post and it got me all excited about drawing a tag here in Montana. This is year number 33 for me for moose, sheep, and goat without ever drawing a tag if I don't get one this year!
I wish you the best, and I think the combination you have put together will work very well for you. A nice light rifle with great optics. Enough, but not too much!
We need pictures next fall mister!! :grin:
