Once in a Lifetime Tag for a Once in a Lifetime Ram

November 9, 2026 by Angela Montana

Les Hicks drew a tag most hunters only dream about…then actually made it count!! He shared his picture and brief hunt caption on Hunt Montana and worked into bow range and heard the rams vocalize and listened to that thud when they kicked each other. In his words, the coolest animal he’s ever hunted! A once-in-a-lifetime tag that became a once-in-a-lifetime story.

Congratulations on a very impressive ram!!
