Follow long with us on our 2023 fly in DIY Dall sheep hunt. This is my dads 44th season hunting Dall sheep and my 15th. With nearly 60 years combined experience you'll get to watch the best in the game.
This was one of my favorite hunting videos I’ve seen. You and your dad have a great relationship and it was super cool to come along and watch you guys enjoy the time together. Congratulations on a great ram and a great hunt.
I watched a lot of these videos and this is probably the favorite one that I’ve ever seen really great job. I also have a friend who has done a similar thing they have their own plane in Alaska father-son thing.
Thanks for sharing. What a great Ram. I love the bantering going on as well. Reminds me of my father and I. Like you I’ve been on his heels for 30 years. Now he brings up the rear. So blessed to have been raised right. Cheers
Dam this was a banger video great trophy that my dream hunt!! But best part was the father son time man don't get any hunts like that where I am from but hunting with my dad is best thing in my life and we're about same ages I am 28 and my dad is 62 and now I have 2 year old son and I hope he get same experiences with me as I do with my dad
Great times. I’m sure you both will hunt many more times. Just over the years the hikes will be shorter and the hunts on the easier side. I hunted with my dad this year and he’s 84.
Awesome hunt and video. I’m envious that you were able to do this with your father. I would have loved a hunt such as this with my Dad. And not seeing the kill shot…this is how hunting videos were five decades ago, and I wish more, really all videos didn’t show the kill shots, as the videos will eventually contribute to the end of legal hunting. Really well done.
I apricate the kind comment. Not getting the kill shot was actually not intentional. However I am a strong advocate for ethical hunting and for very conservative, ethical social media posting. You'll never see any poor ethics from my channel.
I am committed to a Rocky Mt elk hunt in Sept 2024 in the Absaroka Range/Wyoming. Needed to accumulate 6 preference points as as non-resident to be successful in the draw lottery. I have previous experience in the area with elevations in the 7500- 9000 ft range so I know what I'm headed for...I will be 80 in July...just a matter of one foot ahead of the other.
@@ThomasLees I did way ahead of you. I’m same age as your dad never been dall sheep hunting as I’m from the prairies of Saskatchewan and a sheep hunt for us is 35,000 usa which is like 50,000 Canadian. I could afford that if I so choose but when I was younger and more agile I couldn’t. Maybe next lifetime….
Hello . Recently subscribed to your channel after hearing u on Tundra talk. Thx for sharing. Is that a Bausch and Lomb elite spotting scope you’re using ?
lol that’s awesome. I’ve probably shot and guided over 90 rams using that scope. Dating myself but close to your dad’s age. Those scopes were under rated. Nothing today comes close to that weight .Keep up the great work.
Tikka T3 .270 stainless with synthetic stock. My dad has shot a browning A-blot .270 stainless synthetic for most of his career. We both have .338 stainless synthetic browning A-bolts for moose and bear. Those two calibers and archery equipment is all we ever hunt with.
@@ThomasLees Awesome! I rock a .270 as well. Goes to show that old school techniques and equipment still get the job done. Just like your dad’s knees.🤭
Sheep is just about the best tasting game meat in Alaska, Sitka black tail is probably better in my opinion.. A big old billy mountain goat is much less desirable haha its got a unique taste and is usually tough. Makes good burger though.
