Free range fair chase hunts in west Texas in the Big Bend region. These are physical hunts I must stress that so you know what your getting yourself into. I have a few ram hunts still available for the 2010-2011 October-March time frame which is when we hunt them. $2,450 for a 4 day hunt. Guided,caping, with meals, and a spike camp (roughing it). You can harvest a mature ram up to 32.0 inches. Anything over that no matter the size is an extra $500 trophy fee. 1 to 3 hunters can be accomodated on this hunt. Very high success. Be prepaired for longer shots at inclined angles. Ewe Hunt package. We need to take 8 to 10 ewes ASAP. I am looking for about 3 to 4 hunters to come out and do this hunt. We took a 26inch ewe off this place just last month! $5,000 total up to 10 ewes without kids (babies)may be harvested. Meals, guiding, camp, and caping included. Here are some pictures, majority are of this past season alone. Ewes [img] http://i932.photobucket.com/albums/ad168/z24mike/kennithewe.jpg[/img]

This indeed is a very physically challenging and extremely fun hunting opportunity with long distance shot opportunities both up and downhill in some rugged terrain. Mike & his guides are great guys

Group,
A really good aoudad hunt for "free range" sheep. The boy scout motto: "Be Prepared" is the only way to describe this hunt. A two hour hike up and up and up to the sheep...then long shooting. We were luckey and seen sheep everyday...but you had better be ready for hunt.
Beautiful scenery...many vistas..you can see into Mexico...you are right on the Rio Grande...the guides are fun and deliver a good hunting experience.
Bring a spotting scope & good bino's...you'll need them. A light weight rifle would be nice but bring what you can shoot. A good pair of broken-in boots and good sleeping bag if you hunt in january or march. An ATV will save your legs about an hour of walking each morning...just a thought.
Nick & I had a really good time...we're comming back...we just need to work out the details. Ask "Princess" if he wants to tag along?
geo. & nick
Thanks Mike

You guys are hillarious. But seriously, thanks for holding my hand.
George, tell Nick to send me a few of the pics from the trip.

Herc,
Don't believe that we held your hand at all...but we had a good time. You got a terrific sheep at long range...you luckey guy. Nick and i enjoyed the trip...the hiking, the rugged country, the rocks & thorns...and even the company. You and Eric helped to make this trip a success. Except for the snoring.
Bye-the-way; we got two javelina on the last day...after you guys departed for home. Nice long shots...two pigs...luckey us. Mike got the truck stuck and needed help getting out. Ha ! It was fun.
We are planning on comming back...would you guys like to tag along? Have some fun..and a beer or two.. and tell more lies! Sounds better everytime I think about it.

Ah no I would never get that truck stuck! Your not stuck until someone needs to pull you out... Anyways it would be great to have you guys out again. We are cutting a road up to the base of the red bluffs so it would cut the hike in half and you would not need a 4wheeler at all. Also putting up permanent shade, lights, etc. Give me a call and thanks for coming out all of you it was fun! Mike www.westtexashuntorg.com

Due to the high interest in self guided or semi guided hunts we will start offering a few throughout the year.
$1,500 per hunter minimum group of 3 max group of 4. 1 ram up to 30 inches per hunter. Self guided hunt.
I will meet you out at the ranch show you arround and even stick arround the first morning or afternoon to help spot and point you in the right direction.
You will see sheep on this place. Low pressure, great scenery and high success!
