The updated reference book for Dall sheep hunters. Every stage of hunting is covered within these pages--from conditioning to hunting strategies to selecting a taxidermist. Caloric content of backpacking foods and field-judging the three styles of sheep horns are examples of the specific topics presented. Experienced sheep hunters as well as novices will benefit tremendously from this comprehensive guide.

This second edition of the classic how-to book on Dall sheep hunting goes far beyond what was achieved in the first edition. This edition contains extensive instruction for attaining every sheep hunter's goal of being in "sheep shape" before the hunt. There is also advice on the newest footwear, clothing, gear and food for weight-conscious hunters. Dozens of brand names and models are listed and evaluated.

The latest adaptations of sheep to increased hunting pressure are discussed. The newest strategies for achieving hunting success are presented. A new section with some of the author's most memorable hunts has been added, including the story of the World Record Pope & Young Dall sheep.

Anyone who hunts or wants to hunt Dall sheep should read this hunting classic. Safety, comfort and success will all be improved by listening to what this renowned author/hunter/professional guide has to say about hunting Dall sheep.

About the Author:
A native Alaskan, Tony Russ was hooked on sheep hunting after taking his first Dall ram in 1978. He took several rams with a rifle, then started bowhunting for sheep in 1988. Since taking the World Record Pope & Young Dall sheep in 1988, he has taken four more Pope & Young Dall rams. Tony also works as a guide--spending up to six weeks each fall hunting for sheep. He spends additional time each summer hiking through sheep country with binoculars and a camera. His fascination with sheep is equaled by his knowledge of their habits and habitat.
Review:
Between the covers lies as much sound information as you will ever find in a sheep hunting book. -- Wild Sheep, Fall, 1994
