ABOUT OUTFITTER:
This HFA-Endorsed Outfitter takes a limited number of hunters each year and runs a highly personalized service built around that. Arizona is where they operate, with desert bighorn sheep and desert mule deer the two species pursued. Behind the operation is extensive knowledge of the state's units, a long track record of success, and a firm commitment to ethical hunting and conservation. Hunts are approached seriously rather than casually, with planning and scouting done well ahead of a hunter's arrival. For anyone looking for a professional team that knows how to produce results in difficult Arizona country, and who wants attention rather than volume, this operation is set up for exactly that.
HUNT DETAILS:
Arizona holds some of the healthiest and best-managed bighorn populations in the country, and select units in the state produce mature, trophy-class rams with real consistency. This outfitter has decades of experience in those units and knows them well enough to plan a hunt around a specific ram rather than hoping one turns up. Spot and stalk is the method. Scouting is done well before a hunter arrives, and once the hunt begins the work is glassing, patiently and from a distance, until a ram is located and his pattern understood. From there the approach is planned carefully so the hunter is set up for a clean, ethical shot rather than a rushed one. The country asks for that kind of patience. Rocky cliffs, steep canyons, and wide desert basins make up the ground, and it is remote as well as difficult, which is part of what keeps these rams where they are. Hunters who draw here should come ready to work.
ACCOMMODATIONS:
Two options are available. On the guide-only hunt, hunters handle their own meals and lodging, with the outfitter advising on where to stay near the unit being hunted, which suits hunters who prefer to run their own logistics. The fully outfitted option includes lodging, either a hotel or a well-equipped camp depending on the hunt, so nothing needs to be arranged in advance. Either way the guiding is the same, and the choice comes down to whether a hunter would rather manage the details themselves or have all of it handled from arrival to departure.
