Once in a lifetime hunt
BY TYSON SMEDSTAD
If you are really lucky, you may get one of these tags, but the odds are against you.
There were 15,334 applicants for a big horn sheep tag, and four were given out in North Dakota.
That’s as lucky as winning the lottery. North Dakota Game and Fish says this is the hardest tag to draw in the country because of how many hunters put in and the limited tags given out.
So you can just about imagine how excited 26-year-old Ty Evenson of Garrison was when he was one of the four to get a tag this year.
Evenson has been hunting for as long as he can remember. He used to hunt geese and pheasant with his friends in high school.
Now he goes bow and rifle hunting for white tail deer with his father mostly. They also hunt pheasant and coyotes.
