Good times justbreezin.
When this sheep herd was introduced to the ranch, back in the 70s, they were called Mouflan. They've remained on the ranch, unmanaged aside from the occasional Ram kill like this one, for going on 40 years.
Now, the American Kennel Club may disagree, but anyone who would pay thousands of dollars more for the same bone on a sheep with the proper face coloring, deserves to lose that money.
Anyone can shoot a bighorn with a price tag in its ear.
Very few people get a chance to hunt one the way Justbreezin did.
FACT Couldn't agree more with 349south! A mouflon like this one is the working man's BIG HORN SHEEP. I hope to have an encounter like this one day. Cross bred or not. That bone looks mouflon enough for me! Then again, I don't breed the things...

But I will go by the SCI Master scorer and game warden who both said, "nice mouflon". i am curious to see what it will score as. I know ROE makes you submit a high quality picture with each mouflon submittal. this is a pure blooded mouflon. notice to differnece in color  its a great ram either way, sheep hunting is exciting
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Thats a damn nice Ram...if I do say so myself. I agree with 349South. What skills are needed shooting price tag animals out of a pen?

Who said anything about a pure bred mouflon having to come from a pen? There's a pretty strong herd of pure bred mouflon free ranging north of leakey. Like I said before, it's a great trophy. Only point of correction folks made on here earlier is that it's not a mouflon.

Excellent ram, I would love to take one free range!!!
If some animals are good at hunting and others are suitable for hunting, then the Gods must clearly smile on hunting.
