Montana State University student Justin Sheedy had to miss class a few times last fall to ensure he filled his bighorn sheep tag in Eastern Montana. Time away paid off in a huge ram that ties the current hunter-killed record for bighorn sheep, a score of 208 3/8. Before that record is official, the ram will be scored by a panel of judges, but no matter the outcome the trophy proves Montana is THE place to hunt bighorn sheep.
