Each year, Montana typically offers non-residents 10–14 Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep tags available via drawing. Therefore, this is a “must apply” state for those interested in someday perusing this amazing species. Those fortunate enough to draw can expect a true once-in-a-lifetime experience in one of the West’s most spectacular settings.
If you’ve ever dreamed of hunting Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep, Montana offers one of the most coveted opportunities in North America. What sets this hunt apart is the hyper-managed herds and amazing genetics. Montana produces outstanding rams, and the results are nothing short of incredible. Trophy quality here is consistently among the best in North America.
For those lucky enough to draw, this is a challenging yet very achievable hunt in most units available to non-residents. Hunters in reasonable physical condition can expect to navigate rugged but manageable country. The reward is breathtaking views of Montana’s most stunning country and a very high probability of success on high scoring bighorns. We’ve all heard of the giant rams of Montana’s Missouri Breaks GMU’s, but most units in Montana offer exceptional trophy quality with better drawing odds.
