The Chocolate Ram goes down

[Jay Scott]

Posted by Jay ScottI talked to Todd Mast the 24B North sheep hunter tonight and he took his hunt down to the wire. He harvested a ram that we found while scouting for Ernie Meeske's Unit 22 hunt. He had the prettiest cape I have ever seen on a desert sheep. He was almost jet black. I had sent photos to Todd prior to the hunt of the Chocolate ram hoping to give him extra incentive to take his time and he sure did. I believe he was the only sheep hunter still hunting. To his credit he had his sights set on this ram and he got it! Big congratulations to Todd Mast on a job well done! Preliminary score is low 180's ram!

This is a picture from 2008 which I believe is the Chocolate Ram on the left but I'm not 100% sure
