170" B&C Kaparowitz Plateau Utah Ram

  • Mark Butler had waited his entire life to complete his Full Curl of North American Wild Sheep so when he obtained a tag to hunt a trophy desert ram on the Kaparowitz Plateau Unit in southern Utah he immediately phoned Randy Johnson and Brett Caldwell of HIGH DESERT WILD SHEEP GUIDES. The dog days of summer couldn't  slip by fast enough. However, before Mark knew it he was "out on the mountain" in September looking for a big ram that he and Randy had seen while on a scouting trip in August. Late on the afternoon of the opener the ram was spotted. After a difficult stalk Mark made a great 430 yard shot with his son by his side and dad watching the action through a spotting scope high above the hunters on a rocky rim. Mark's ram scored 170 pts to make his trophy one of the largest to ever be taken on this Utah unit.
