#105 | Chasing the Grand Slam: A Guide's Love for Sheep Hunting | Johnny Hamilton

Ike Eastman sits down with longtime friend and elite western guide Johnny Hamilton for a genuine conversation about a pursuit that gets in your blood and doesn't let go: sheep hunting. Johnny walks through his stone sheep hunt in the same northern country Ike's grandfather once hunted, reflects on his dall ram and Rocky, and talks about what's next — a desert sheep hunt with Clay Lancaster down in Mexico that would complete his Grand Slam. Along the way the two get into 25 years of guiding elk in southern Colorado, Johnny's recent New Zealand tahr and chamois trip, and why, for the guys who catch the sheep bug, it becomes the pinnacle of a hunting life.
