Darr and I had seen this ram in Unit 44B North that we nicknamed Tippy several times over the 2009, 2010 and 2011 sheep scouting and hunting seasons. These first pics were captured on 10/26/10 prior to
Ron Arndorfer's Hunt. Tippy continued to grow and then was harvested in December of 2011 by hunter Brad Reily of Yuma. Tippy was checked out by the Arizona Game and fish at 171 6/8. Congrats to Brad on a great ram!

Lets take a look at the numbers on "Tippy". Left Horn-Horn Length 35 5/8, 14 5/8, 14 2/8, 12 4/8, 9 0/9=86 1/8 and the Right Horn-35 4/8, 14 4/8, 14 2/8, 12 5/8, 9 2/8=86 1/8 for a total of 172 2/8 minus 4/8 of deductions. The NET score is 171 6/8.
