This is a truly unique hunt. Our winner will be hunting real free range Aoudad and Scimitar Oryx in Texas. This is absolutely not a fenced hunt. This hunt is 100% fair chase for these free range exotics. Our agents at Hunt-nation have worked with this outfitter for about 15 years. His Aoudad and Scimitar Oryx hunts are in Texas on private leases.The outfitter has been operating for nearly 30 years, and is very successful and well-respected.
These Aoudads our winner will be hunting, also known as Barbary sheep are free-ranging, and have proliferated over the past 90 years since they arrived in the U.S. They thrive in the arid and dry West Texas ranges. It is nearly identical to the natural range of these sheep in their native North African Sahara deserts. These are big animals, often 36” to 40” at the shoulders, and weighing 200 to 300 pounds. Their main characteristic is the long flowing hair on the throat, chest and forelegs (called chaps). They have large, heavy, sweeping horns that sweep out and back. A good 27” long aoudad will usually make the SCI book, and the biggest will exceed 30 inches. They top out around 33”, but a few giants have reached 36” and a bit. Horn bases run from about 12”-13.5”, with a very few reaching 14+”. They are physically tough and sturdy and require a substantial and well-placed bullet. With superb eyesight and great stamina, they make for a challenging quarry. And once mounted, they are truly spectacular conversation pieces and a trophy to be proud of. Success with this outfitter is generally 100% most years on sheep in the 27” to 33” range, but you still will earn your aoudad here.
Then our winner will also be able to harvest a second species on this combo hunt. The Scimitar Oryx are beautiful animals and this is one of the only places in the United States that we are aware of, where you can hunt them as free range trophies. These hunts take place on a 40,000 – acre ranch in west Texas that is home to hundreds of free-ranging Scimitar-Horned Oryx. These magnificent animals make gorgeous mounts as well, and not many hunters have those in their trophy room! Success is close to 100%, and these scimitars average 35”-40” horns.
Lodging is a ranch house with comfortable beds and good meals. Ultimate Hunt Giveaways has covered all the expenses on this Texas Exotics Combo including tags, license fee, lodging, meals and guiding.
