This week on Talk is Sheep, we sit down with longtime Wild Sheep Society of BC supporter and Lex Ross Award recipient Don Lynum.Don’s love for precision shooting and custom rifles is only matched by his passion for wild sheep conservation. We unpack the origin story behind the BiG BoaR rifle series—created in memory of Don’s friend Dave Marsh (aka “BiG BoaR”), and built into one of the most meaningful fundraising traditions in our community.Over the last decade, Don has donated 20 rifles in 10 years, a program that has generated an estimated $300,000 for conservation in BC. We also preview the Big Boar 2026 plan and what’s coming next.Episode Sponsor: Precision Optics In this episode, we cover:* How Don’s “perfect mountain rifle” obsession started—and why it never really ends * The legacy of Dave Marsh and the story behind the BiG BoaR name * The real-world conservation impact of consistent community giving * A look ahead at the Big Boar 2026 rifles and what makes them special * Supporter credits (Talk is Sheep)Presented by: @sitkagearSupported by:@yeti@zeisshunting@frontiersmengear@onxhunt@stoneglacier@wild_tv@
