Hunting & Fishing Big Texas Aoudad Down!

[mulie_mike]

Had one of my clients come out and do a guided hunt with me couple years back and he connected on a nice ram. Called me up few months back asking if he could do a self guided hunt and felt confident he knew the ranch well enough so I agreed to do it if he brought a buddy along. They first came out in December and the hunting was slow (never seen it like that on this place) so I told them hold off and when Im seeing good numbers again will try to get you back out in a hurry.

Well last week they gave it another go and connected with a beautiful ram with great hair. Luckily the ram didn't go another foot if not it would have been a long long ways down.
It was 32.5" SCI measurements and was worn down on his tip quite a bit, very old dark ram. Will look great on the wall.

Where do you hunt in Terlingua? I am always out that way and this ram was taken not too far from there.

Between Willow mountain and Wild Horse mountain. In the valley that my friends family owns a nice big chunk of it. I think it's Terlingua Ranch gate #3 if I recall correctly. It's just a couple of miles north of Study Butte.

Did you make it out to the chili cookoff last year?

I tend to stay away from the Chili Cook offs. Its bad enough that the town Sheriff gives out tickets for just about anything due to boredom.

Man that looks like some ankle-breakin' country. Nice trophy!
