Spent a couple days along the Devils River hunting Aoudad and in 1.5 days of hunting we saw over 75 Aoudad with half a dozen Big Rams (big= 32" to 36"). One nice ram was taken and a couple big ones missed. We then hopped over and took a nice free range Black Buck right down the road and were lucky enough to catch a nice cold afternoon where everything was up and moving. One failed stock led us back to a watering area where 2 bucks were fighting hard (an awesome sight to see) and we got within 80 yards of them and made a great shot. The buck dropped in his tracks and the other buck kept on whooping him so we had to run him off before tearing up the downed buck. Next morning was 24 degrees and we were off to hunt some Corsicans, once we were on them they seemed to be everywhere and we connected on 3 back to back decent rams. A great hunt and some nice animals taken. Cant wait for the next one. All of these animals were taken free range and fair chase. www.westtexashuntorg.com    As a bonus we caught this little guy on a recovery of one of the rams

Were going to keep him this time around. If he acts up it will be shoulder mount time.

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.
