Reprinted from the Summer 2008 issue of Grand Slam™ Magazine Special Report Triple Slammer #27, Rex Baker (#253, GA), was the lucky winner of a Raffle-Rama drawing for a Texas desert bighorn at the 2008 convention. Rex hunted with Larry Altimus and Altimus Adventures just a couple of weeks after the convention, during early March, and then filed this report: I still can’t believe I won the Texas desert sheep permit. Larry (#1238, AZ) & Stephanie Altimus (#1169, AZ) did a great job; he really knows sheep hunting and is an expert on the Baylor Mountain Ranch where we hunted. I didn’t have to buy a license as I had been hunting red sheep with Rowdy McBride a couple of weeks earlier. Delta gave me a mileage ticket, so for once I can tell Shirley that a sheep hunt was not very expensive. We collected the sheep on the third day, walking and checking canyons. He nets 172 3/8 B&C green. This is the third sheep off the ranch. Both of the other rams were in the mid-160s. With luck I’ll finish my second Grand Slam and my fifth World Slam this year. Thanks again, Dennis, for providing this wonderful hunt, and remember… it’s better to be lucky than good! Each year GSCO Raffle Winners are given the best sheep hunting opportunities to be found anywhere and the overwhelming majority return home with trophy rams
