186 7/8 gross Desert Bighorn

Here is a great desert ram taken last year by Ernie Meeske.  Ernie has been applying for many years to draw this tag and he made the most of it.  He made several scouting trips and looked at several super rams.  Ernie had his son Seth, son-in-law Jeremy, and friends Jay Scott, Jack Johnson Jr., Jack Johnson Sr. and some others along to help.  You can see a video of the kill at Jayscottoutdoors.  Ernie watched the ram for several hours until he moved into a position for a shot.  He was afraid the ram would go over a cliff into the lake.  It did end up going over a cliff, but due to waiting him out, it didn't end up in the water (It did end up in a cactus patch).  Enjoy the photos of Ernie's sheep mount.
