Giant Desert Sheep

Gabriel Lopez and Pat Feldt with a giant Nelsoni subspecies desert ram.  His horn length is 37½" with bases at 15¼ inches!  His side profile shows the incredible horn mass and length!  He gross scored 174 inches, which makes him place well in all the record books.  He is the largest Nelson desert ram taken in AZ for 2005.  We found this ram in October on a scouting trip and were fortunate enough to locate him the second day of the December season.  Also, read the article and view the video of the hunt.

 

Chase Phillips and Pat Feldt with a desert Ram

This is Pat Feldt and Chase Phillips with a record-class Mexicana subspecies desert bighorn ram.  Chase's uncle applied for him only twice before he drew a tag!  We videoed this ram during a scouting trip months before the hunt and knew he would be a good candidate for Chase.  On opening morning Pat glassed up the ram at over a mile away. We watched him bed-down before attempting a stalk.  After a 4 hour stalk, Chase made the remarkable shot at 410 yards!  The ram has heavy 15⅝-inch bases, nearly 35 inch length, and carries his mass well!  He measures 170" gross and was aged at 10½ years old! 

  

Neils Foley with a trophy desert bighorn ram.

Nils Foley and AGH guide Roger Cook with a once-in-a-lifetime desert bighorn sheep.  Nils passed on many lesser rams before taking this nice165" Mexicana desert sheep.  He shot the ram at over 200 yards.  A couple larger sheep were seen on the hunt, but unfortunately didn't give the opportunity.  This 9½-year old ram's horns are heavy and broomed well.  His horns are 34¼" long with over 15" bases.  This old ram's face shows some classic battle scars.
