557 | DIY Non-Resident Dall Sheep Hunt In Alaska

Last month, we selected the winner of the Best Photo Story from the Exo Experience photo contest. That winner, Kenny, joins us today to share the full story of his hunt.

When we selected Kenny's winning photo story, we had no idea just how unique the hunt was. Kenny, a resident of North Carolina, drew a limited Dall Sheep tag in Alaska.

With Alaska's opportunity for non-residents to hunt Dall Sheep without a guide — if the hunter is accompanied by an Alaska resident who is a second-degree relative — Kenny, his brother-in-law from Alaska, and two others embarked upon a do-it-yourself sheep hunt unlike any other.

This hunt included highs, lows, and unexpected challenges — as any good sheep hunt should.

In this episode, Kenny and his friend Zach share their experience as first-time, do-it-yourself sheep hunters.
