What species of sheep are you wanting to hunt in Russia?

I was thinking the Kamchatka snow sheep. They’re supposed to be one of the biggest from what I’ve heard. Have you done the trip? Would love advice if you have.

2020-Finish Debt Snowball (except mortgage)and get out of stupid debt. Get moved to tithing at Church, and 15% of income to retirement savings. DONE
2021- Mount the new Leupold scope on Roger No. 1 .30-06. Learn to reload, and work up load for PG. Range practice. Start losing weight and getting in better shape. Get serious about saving for Africa.
2022- Keep saving, keep practicing, get the weight down.
2023- First safari to Africa. Plains game in Eastern Cape with Bullet Safaris.

 

[LivingTheDream]

2021 - Caribou hunt Newfoundland

2022 - Dont know? Maybe make up for my cancelled Musk Ox, or cash in some Western hunt points, or hunt RSA with Talsa. Uganda sounds cool...Costa Rica fishing might be fun...going somewhere to kill something.

2023 - Postponed Dallas Sheep hunt...and probably something else.

2024 - Maybe Marco Polo...maybe Leopard...something cool.

2021- Mid to end of April hunt in South Africa, Eastern Cape, with Nick Bowkers. 8 animals (Kudu, Nyala, black wildebeest, mountain reedbuck, impala, springbuck, blesbuck and warthog), Fingers crossed on this happening. Hopefully western Kansas hunt in late January for pheasant and bobwhite quail. Annual hunt in northern Wisconsin in October for grouse and woodcock.
2022- Excited and wanting to go back to Africa! Really want to go back for sable, gemsbuck, and likely cape buffalo for Trip #2 (add buying a .375 H&H rifle starting NOW). Go to Texas for Nilgai. Repeat on annual bird hunting trips. Add a birding (birdwatching) trip with my older brother out West, likely northern and Rocky Mountain states.
2023- Big blank right now. Open to suggestions. Possibly Nova Scotia for moose with some friends I waterfowl hunt with.

 

[Whitworth375]

2021- Pronghorn hunt in Alberta with Double Diamond Outfitters, deposit sent.
2022- Whitetail deer hunt northern Alberta with Diamond Willow Outfitters, still planning.
2023- Mule deer hunt in Alberta with 2BAlbertaOutfitting or whitetail hunting on Anticosti Island in Quebec, undecided.

Well, if all goes well, these are the plans:

2020 - Try to stay Covid free. Shoot a deer or two to put venison in the freezer, so far zero deer for me.
2021 - South Dakota for pheasant, turkey & deer. Elk hunt in Oregon with my son after he returns from his deployment.
2022 - Hunt Eastern Cape, SA with Game 4 Africa Safaris, for Kudu, Bushbuck, Eland & Nyala. If finances are good, Black Wildebeest & Hartebeest. Wife will be in tow since this was her idea.
2023 - Black bear somewhere in the US or Canada.

2024 is a bit too far off, and plans will depend if I retire or not.

Glad my wife shoots a Nikon not a Winchester. New Zealand in March is beautiful. I hope you get to hunt the roar! I went in late March and early April. What an experience.

Tanks I have no doubt hunting elephant must be incredible in and by itself...just curious if you hunt a bull do you get a recreation of the tusks or animal if you want it due to US restrictions? Also why so passionate about hunting elephants please? After my two buffalo hunts I have booked elephant might be my next DG. Thanks in advance for sharing your experience!!!

I have residences outside of the USA that I send trophies not allowed in the US. In regards to hunting elephants, I am sure you will understand once you get your first one.

Now that all of you have turned me into an African addict lol! Here is my three year plan...what is yours?
1. July 2021 first Buffalo hunt with Tsala 40+ opportunity
2. July 2022 just booked for second hunt with Game 4 Africa for second buffalo, kudu and first water buck
3. I will hunt with Tsala again for lion and elephant not booked yet but this is my plan

I have no idea what comes after the above...how about you?

Excellent thread! You need to add rhino and leopard to your 5 year plan.

I’m forging forward on the NA 29
Grizzly in April Alaska
Central Barren Ground Caribou and Canada Moose in Manitoba
Woodland Caribou in Newfoundland
Rocky Mountain Bighorn in ????

slipping in a couple of Safaris with my sins in RSA. Grant hunting rhino and Parker plains game.
Then up to Zambia with Strang Middleton for a bow hunt.

In 2022, any of the above I did not collect on the first attempt

Mrs BeeMaa just added Giraffe to 2022 safari.
She wants a big black bull Giraffe rug!
Hard to argue with logic like that.
