Who has killed Sheep with a trad bow?

[rolltidehunter]

California BigHorn, Dall, Desert,Rocky Mountian or Stone...?? i want to see pictures!

I'm sure there are quite a few, but a great feat would to be the first in your state.  Steve Gorr of Cascade Archery (sponsor) took the first Bighorn with a trad bow in Colorado in 1973.  It was a full curl with 33" horns and Steve took it with a running shot at 30 yards.

A little off topic, but I live 45 mins from glacier natl park, and have been within 5 yards of mountain goats several times, they have very little fear of humans around Logan pass, as it is a very popular tourist area. The sheep I've seen there have been a bit more wary, keeping a good distance.  I hope to take one or the other with a longbow someday, but unfortunately it won't be this year.

I know the Robertson boys, Yote and Dick have done well. Yote has taken 3 Dall Rams with a longbow, maybe the only person to have done so.

Catalina ram, #46 Kanati with a 660 grain arrow.
First shot was 30 yards and the second was 70. Couldn't believe I made that one...

I believe Doug Campbell killed one with a stone head a couple years ago. I tried to find his write up on here but have not been able to. If I remember correctly it had a strange follow up story as well.

[Steve Clandinin]

Doug Bourgland,he was with Jay Massey at the time.A fantastic story in the Alaskan Bowmen Magazine.

[cacciatore]

Mario Locatelli from  Hamilton,Mt has killer at last 3 with his longbow,over the years.This is why he is called mountain goat man!

I've shot a few ewes over the years. Missed two Rams. Did get a ewe tag this year.

My dad shot a bunch of sheep with a Jack Howard Gamemaster.  Don't know where he got them all, but he hunted a lot on Catalina and (I think) Santa Cruz islands.  I wasn't quite born yet when he got them (I'm 41 now), but lived all my growing up years looking at the mounts, which included, among a lot of other species, several sheep.
