The rugged desert of Sonora, Mexico provides the perfect backdrop for one of the most coveted hunts in North America: the desert bighorn sheep. It’s a hunt many dream about, traveling through breathtaking scenery while chasing giant iconic animals. Now thanks to WTA’s Desert Sheep Sweepstakes, you have the chance to make this dream a reality for just $100.
This animal and the arid mountain ranges of northern Mexico it inhabits make this a pinnacle hunt. Here’s what makes this WTA outfitter opportunity so special.
The Hunt
This hunt takes place on private ranches in the heart of northern Mexico where sheep populations have been carefully managed for quality for years. WTA has partnered with this outfitter for over a decade. Hunters regularly harvest desert rams ranging from the 160s to the 180s. World-class animals.
Sonora’s terrain is challenging but accessible. The small mountain ranges offer lots of great shot opportunities. The landscape is steep and rocky but the hunt isn’t as physically demanding as other sheep hunts. It’s a great option for hunters of all fitness levels who are ready to put in the work for a trophy ram.
Check out this video to get a sense of the hunt. On this trip, hunter Ira Conklin III completed his Sheep Grand Slam alongside his son. Ira had been hunting sheep across North America and looked to WTA to help him secure the final piece of his slam, the Desert Ram. The video captures the heart-pounding excitement of this hunt.
The Experience
The accommodations reflect the charm of old Mexico. Hunters stay in rustic yet clean, comfortable ranch houses, complete with traditional Mexican cuisine. The focus is on delivering an authentic experience with great attention to detail. While the setting may feel remote, the outfitter and guides provide world-class service, ensuring every aspect of the hunt is excellent.
Travel logistics are simple. Hunters fly into Hermosillo, Mexico and the outfitter’s team handles the rest. WTA ensures you’re set with gun permits, customs, and transportation. The trip from the airport to the ranch is relatively short with a drive time ranging from one to three hours, depending on where you stay.
The Hunt of a Lifetime
This is the hunt of a lifetime in one of the most beautiful places in North America. It’s a place with free-ranging sheep, low hunting pressure, and expert management. It’s an ideal setting for taking a true trophy, with nearly 100% shot opportunities. The outfitter limits the number of hunters each year, ensuring a high-quality experience that clients rave about.
This is an incredible chance to not only harvest a trophy desert ram, but also experience northern Mexico’s unique landscape and culture. Whether glassing rugged mountains or enjoying freshly prepared meals after a day in the desert, you’ll build memories that will last a lifetime.
