I have had great luck in the past on TBH getting these types of hunts going and want to try again for this year as we will be back in Texas in December.
In years past, I have had good luck getting access to private leases/ranches to cull exotic sheep. Most ranchers don't like having them around and we usually shoot 2 or 3 ewes only, for little to no coin or sacks of corn/feeder filling, for the smoker. In contrary, we have gotten thanked for removing a few unwanted mouths and I know most hunters hate having sheep around due to their influence on other species. Also, most hunters don't want to try to eat them and see them as useless.
We are a very experienced spousal team that lives and hunts the backcountry of Nevada. Last hunt we did lasted a little more than an hour...from the time we glassed, stalked, and then packed the meat off the hillside to the truck.
That being said, anybody have any leads? I lost all my old contacts and also wanted to see if there were others we could help out. No outfitters or other pay ranches please...they usually want to charge way too much for a "pest" and I have checked with most if not all by now.
Thanks in advance!
