Got an opportunity to go out with Mike McKinny (mulie_mike) with West Texas Hunt Organization for an awesome aoudad hunt. The weather was better than expected for this time of year (though we were racing the incoming storms) and the rut was ON!!! Mike really knows aoudad, and has some wonderful properties.

We couldn't believe the number of aoudad we saw - probably 60+ per day with several opportunities at big, mature rams!!! I was lucky enough to harvest a once-in-a-lifetime type of ram - what a blessing... All four of us tagged out in just 2.5 days! Thanks, Mike, for an unbelievable hunt! I will probably never top him, but you can bet I'm not through trying!!!

Congratulations on your ram, he is a stud.


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

Very nice!!


To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

Thanks, all. I would highly recommend WTHO. Mike knows aoudad, and taught us all a LOT about them. Really interesting animals with some neat habits/traits.
