Phil recounts the story of this hunt, the gear he used, shares a few fascinating tidbits about things that have happened on this hunt and a previous hunt, and a few tips for those considering making the journey out to the desert to hunt these creatures.

Sheep Fever co-host Gray Thornton joins WSF Director Emilio Rangel, founder and co-owner of Rancho La Palmosa in Coahuila, Mexico, Dr. Sam Cunningham, Texas Bighorn Society President, Froylan Hernandez, Desert Bighorn Sheep Program Director with the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department, and Jim Breck Bean of High West Outfitters to discuss aoudad as a big game animal, their value to Texas landowners, and their impact on the health and viability of desert bighorn sheep. Aoudad were introduced into Texas from northwest Africa (Barbary sheep) in the late 1940s and have taken hold, increasing more than 1800% to more than 30,000 in Texas today. By contrast, desert bighorn sheep were extirpated from Texas in the 1960s, but through the cooperative efforts of private landowners, Texas Parks & Wildlife, and organizations such as Texas Bighorn Society and WSF, were restored, reaching a population high of 2,000 in the mid-2010s. Tragically, those 2,000 have been reduced to about 500-600 desert sheep in the Lone Star State today. A significant factor contributing to this decline has been competition for habitat with aoudad and pathogens such as M.ovi transmitted from them, causing all age die-offs. This is a very complex issue with no simple answer. This esteemed panel discusses these challenges, opportunities, as well as possible solutions.

Have you ever dreamed of hunting exotic game in wild places? Well those dreams may be closer to home than you think. Scotti Campbell is the owner and operator of Top'o Texas Outfitters in the Davis Mountains of west Texas. Scotti has made a name for himself by being one of the few outfitters willing to tackle the near impossible task of chasing free range aoudad (also known as Barbary Sheep) spot and stalk style with a bow. Aoudad are one of many non native species who have flourished in Texas, and many who have hunted them consider them one of the toughest animals to hunt in North America. Part of what makes them so difficult to hunt is where they live. The Davis Mountains are as rough and rugged as they come, filled with cliffs and cactus. Scotti Campbell is one of the most genuine people you will ever talk to, and he and John have a great conversation about all the hunts Top'o Texas Outfitters has to offer. While they have become known for being a bow hunters paradise, including traditional archers, Scotti and his crew welcome all types of hunting for a variety of game. While Aoudad are their bread and butter, Top'o Texas also offers a limited amount of Elk, Mule Deer, Antelope, and Javelina hunts, most of which take place on a private 120,000 acer ranch nestled into the beautiful and scenic Davis Mountains. If you are looking for adventure close to home, you definitely need to look into Top'o Texas Outfitters. Check out the Sportsmen's Empire Podcast Network for more awesome content!

In this episode the guys talk about how to ship meat! They cover their somewhat fool proof technique of getting meat back home after each trip. However they did run into a little issue with the meat once they got back to their home airport in Detroit... They also cover a few of the common questions they get asked by fans. Such as, how they choose episodes and if they have any paid internship positions. And with the cherry on top... UFOs. Are they among us?!

Texas Public Land Hunting & Beyond Part 1 This is going to be a four part series of podcast starting with just Trever and Myself on this first episode, explaining how we find places to hunt and what we hunt. Part 2 will be an interview with a member of Texas Parks and Wildlife, on public hunting, big game draws, & postcard hunts. In Part 3 we will be having On X Maps on to explain how using a online public private mapping can help you be a more productive hunter. Part 4 is the Beyond we are trying to get a guest on to talk about out of state hunting both out west and draws and tags both over the counter and points, because neither of us is experienced in hunting much outside of Texas Texas is more than 95% private land, Lease prices go up every year and are becoming harder to find, but we all own a large amount land in Texas, it is our public land. I didn’t always know about public land hunting and didn’t know it was even an option for hunting. So i will humbly ask this of us all who use public land be it a for hunting, fishing, camping or just enjoying the outdoors, leave it better than you found it, even the simple act of picking of trash in the parking area, just do a little to help ensure we get to enjoy these lands for a long time to come. If you enjoy Hunting and Fishing, consider joining Backcountry Hunters and Anglers, they help us make sure that we will continue to have a place to hunt and fish, on top of the fact they it’s just a bunch of like minded people who are good folks. www.backcountryhunters.org/ All that being said………….. This Podcast series is going to piss some people off, and I understand and get that but the public land we hunt and fish on doesn’t just belong to you and I, it belongs to all of us, and all of us means exactly that all of us. It belongs to every American citizen, and our public land able to be used by anyone who wishes to to use it. So that means the hikers, campers, bird watchers, trail runner, hunters, fishermen, EVERYONE, so we need to be the best stewards of this land, and make sure we take the best care of it as hunters and fishermen, be courteous and polite to the other users of this land we all have the right to use this land but we need to show the non-consumptive users we are the best conservationist’s and use this land as we have the right to, and encourage others to use this land and to leave it better than they found it everytime they use it.

I keep notes on location, game seen, harvested, trails, weather (including before and after the hunt).moon phase, who I was with where we parked How we accessed the property, anything that just stood out from the hunt. I also will keep notes on anything I see in just my day to day life about deer movement or bird migration, or even I just happened to notice an uptick on doves sitting on power lines a few weeks before season. Scouting pre and post season The most useful thing for hunting public, grab a fishing pole or camera and get your boots on the ground. Find deer beds, trails, feeding areas.Find where the birds are on the reverse migrations, odds are they will be in the same spot on the trip south. Scouting is a year long activity, if your spring turkey hunting, you should also be looking for sheds or other deer sign, and making notes in your hunting/scouting log as soon as you can to make sure when whatever season it is that sign you found you can remember where it was. Time to Hunt Arrive Early, Extra early for WMA’s that have a drawing to get a unit. Remember when hunting public your hunting against other people as well as the game, you need to think of how they will act, and the affects that could have on the game you are chasing that day. Don’t be married to “your spot” have a backup plan or 3 in the bag and Ready to go, stay light so you can hunt on the more run-n-gun style. Use GPS tracks, avoid flagging tape if at all possible not only is it technically littering, but it also leads everyone else to the spot your found. Hunt during the week if you can to avoid the crowds *the exception to this if you can use the crowds to your advantage. Silence your gear as best you can, practice your shooting in the gear your gonna be hunting in. TYPES OF PUBLIC HUNTING LAND: Public Land Hunting that only takes your Hunting license. Natl.
