The one in the middle was killed this weekend by a hunter here on the forum. I think he was 31or 32" long almost 12" bases

He's a "BEAST".....dropped him at the Taxi as soon as we got back home. He's going to look great as a full body mount on a rock in my man cave! Jason and Ryan have some of the toughest rams for hunting anywhere and will do anything to get you on them! These guys were so much fun to hunt with and took care of my boys like they were their own, if you want a GREAT hunt give them a call. If anyone is looking for a "GIANT" Mouflon to hunt give them a call....you will be impressed with the ram and the host's! Will be hunting here again! Thanks guys!

Probably would drop the hammer on the one the right, but the mass on the guy on the left is amazing.
Mossman, any pics of yours?
If you died tomorrow, what would you have done today...

Hope you don't mind me using your picture Mossman. Also thank you for the kind words. We had a great time with you all and the boys. I don't think any of us will ever forget some of the memories we all made this weekend.

High lonesome I am calling them pure enough to be entered into the record books that way. I don't know that anyone has 100% "pure" mouflon. In fact I have read many times and talked to many breeders who don't know that there are any true 100% pure mouflon that have never been crossed anywhere in thier genetic existence.

Thank you guys. The clients were very happy and a great group which always make it fun. We have some really good animals and are constantly adding more. This is our personal ranch so we try and do it right. We have some big plans this year of possibly adding a new lodge which is going to take it to a new level. We try to keep our prices fair and hunting fun. We will also be taking deposits on whitetail for next year soon. 150-180" 4500 and 180-200" 6500. These hunts will be 3 days 2 nights with meals and lodging included. Let me know what you guys think about those prices.

Very impressive ram, congratulations. This sounds like one of those ranches I need to add to my off season hunt list!

Was just asking, the Ram on the right shows a lot of Urial and the Pic wasn't good enough for Me to tell,they are some nice Rams for sure but there are Pure European Mouflon here in the States, I breed them!

Sheep hunter got as close to 100% in Texas as you will find. The Rams in the listing pictures may have passed by a mouflon and that is about it. Let's call a spade a spade. wild sheep.org has plenty of pictures.
