We welcome two hardcore mountain hunters to the podcast — Anthony Klubi and Brandon Roth. These guys have been grinding it out in sheep country for the better part of a decade, yet the elusive ram has always slipped through their fingers. That changed this year. After an early-season hunt that came up short on harvest but full of lessons, Anthony and Brandon laced up their boots once again and pushed back into the mountains in pursuit of a mature Stone’s ram. 179 kilometres on foot and fifteen days in the field later — persistence finally paid off. But this story is more than just miles and mountains. Earlier in the year, Anthony lost his grandfather and chose to carry his ashes with him into the alpine. The emotional weight of that journey — combined with the unspoken question of who would take the shot if the opportunity presented itself (neither had ever harvested a ram) — could have made for a tense situation. Instead, it revealed the strength of true hunting brotherhood. Anthony and Brandon walk us through that pivotal moment — and how it unfolded with respect, humility, and friendship. The result? A heavy, dark-caped ram worthy of any sheep hunter’s dreams. This story will make you laugh, pause, and quite possibly wipe away a tear. It’s one for the books.
