It is funny how that gets to be a real fine line. I really beleive that a little education wouldn't hurt anyone including some that have been in this game for a long time. This includes outfitters. I think someone had pointed out that a good portion of the rams taken by outfitters are not real crackers and I guess if I'm putting out that kind of money I would want to take home something, but at the same time the idea that anything is better than nothing can't be right all the time either. I think it is gunslinger that has booked a dessert sheep hunt (and by no means am I trying to tell anyone how to handle themselves) but if any of us where in his shoes knowing what is going on here in Alberta can you now say that "Any" legal ram is OK.

I know that is crap to say and even bigger crap to try and say I would do this or that but it certainly should get all of us to think about how we affect the resource every time we march up a mountain or crawl through a coulee looking for that "trophy"
