very nice ram thanks for pics

[44inchStone]

Great Ram!! and GREAT job on the taxidermy. If I may ask who did it. Looking forward to a life size on one of mine.

[proguide66]

Very cool ! But didnt he 'butt' in line???:?

[bellero]

OMG, what an amazing mount!

[Ruger4]

how bout a grizzly mount to get fired up !!

[yama49]

Very nice indeed, look foward to seeing it in kamloops.. Great work Do you have a side profile picture?

[BlacktailStalker]

Beautiful ram.
Fml I hope to finally find one!

Very cool ! But didnt he 'butt' in line???:?

You gotta figure a guy like KES should be able to jump the line. A couple more seasons like the one he just had and his taxidermist will be able to retire early. Simple 80/20 rule. Take care of the 20% of your customers that give you 80% of your revenue.

All kidding aside - great Stone and an awesome job on the mount! Well done and thanks for posting.

Not a matter of any special treatment, the ram will get a ride home to KES from the show and save shipping it and taking
any chances. The mounts that I am doing for PG66 will get personal delivery service ( gotta see the porch )
I donated a 1/2 lifesize mount to WSSOBC for the fundraiser and this mount will help to advertise the work that
we try to do and hopefully bring in some bucks for the sheep

[Hombre]

Wow! Absolutely beautiful Ram , and taxidermy.I know where I'll be taking my future trophies to.

[coach]

You do some very fine work, Wild Images. I hope the fundraiser goes well and that you get some well deserved business out if it. I was completely kidding about special treatment for KES. It was a backhanded compliment to him for such a great season.

[Rodd]

Awesome Ram, and Mount!! KES will enjoy for a lifetime... Good Work, and Thanks for sharing!

[835]

Bloody hell??
Why isnt it moving!

nice work, that pic of the eye, really real looking!

[kootenayelkslayer]

Incredible job Ken! So pumped to see it in person...it's looking like I might make it to the convention after all.


A couple more seasons like the one he just had and his taxidermist will be able to retire early.
With the amount of money that I'm banking as a student right now, I don't think Ken will be banking on me for early retirement anytime soon!

haha...was going to say , " couple other taxidermists did that kind of treatment and are flipping eggs hiding in some camp now",haha...
i'm sure my blackies are going to have 'drool factor' !!

[Piperdown]

Another great job Ken :)

[whitetailsheds]

Sweet work Ken! Very nice ram.....

[pg83]

Beautiful job you did on that great sheep!

[kennyj]

Looks awesome. What a beautiful ram.
kenny

[GoatGuy]

Sure like those later season rams.

You're going to have to tell KES if he sleeps with the mount, like he did when he had the horns, you won't be able to restore it to its original condition.

[moose2]

Great job Ken it looks great, congrats again to KES on taking a great ram.

[300rum700]

Beauty! Gotta love that late season hair. So much for easing the pain.........

[BlacktailStalker]

Good ol Moss lol

[Buck]

Nice Ram and a great mount.I'm really bustin my ass at the Gym and that is some great inspiration.

[Ovis17]

Looking good!! Gotta love the quick turnaround on that one.

[kootenayelkslayer]

Hahaha I think the picture you might be referring to is me sleeping with the horns from a 175" Dall sheep.

[Jim Prawn]

Looking forward to seeing pics of some 2010 Goats Wild Images is doing too....

[budismyhorse]

Incredible job.... And one hell of a ram!

[Rattler]

Awesome job Ken!

[bruin]

If that's not inspiring I don't know what is.
Great ram and great work!

[300H&H]

I don't know much about aging sheep but would I be right if I said that ram was 9 1/2 or 10 1/2 years old ?

[BCbillies]

Looking good!! Gotta love the quick turnaround on that one.

x2 . . . that quality of work, in that timeframe, at a reasonable price is pretty rare!

[scottwh]

Nice job Ken, very nice :) And congrats again KES! See ya at the sheep show!!
