Bighorn Sheep

Our desert bighorn hunting takes us to Texas and Old Mexico, while here at home we have opportunities at both the desert and Rocky Mountain species.

These hunts are primarily put on through the use of landowner permits in Texas and Old Mexico, or through the governor's permit here in New Mexico. Of course applying for the New Mexico drawing is always an option, but with low draw odds.

Our Texas desert bighorn hunt is truly a prestigious hunt with numerous trophy rams and spectacular country. The ram featured here was taken in 2001, in an attempt to break the Texas state record. He was approximately 12 year old and scored 175 7/8 SCI. These hunts are generally 9 to 14 days long, and we can hunt September through October, January through February, or May through July.

If you're fortunate enough to be the winning bidder of the New Mexico governor's permit you can choose to hunt either a desert or Rocky Mountain sheep with one area designated for desert and a choice of three areas for Rocky Mountain. New Mexico has some excellent sheep hunting with desert sheep in the 170's and Rocky Mountain sheep in the 180's.




Lion

Working with the dogs, and the thrill of the chase, make lion season something that every houndsman looks forward to. There's no sweeter sound than that of the dogs when they've treed, and no prettier sight than that of a big tom crouched in a ponderosa.

We cover a lot of territory during this hunt in either the pickup or six wheeler, looking for fresh tracks. Snow makes trailing easier, and if your schedule is flexible that helps a lot.

This is an all time favorite and how we originally got started in the outfitting business.
