Desert Bighorn Sheep Hunts
The kind of tag most hunters wait a lifetime for, and it deserves to be hunted that way.
The Hunt
How We Hunt It
A Nevada Nelson bighorn sheep tag is the kind of opportunity most hunters wait a lifetime for, and it deserves to be hunted that way.
These hunts take us into some of Nevada’s roughest, most remote country. We put in the time scouting, glassing, and learning where mature rams are living before the hunt ever begins.
Once it does, expect long days, steep country, and a hunt built around finding the right ram, not just the first one we see.
You waited years for the tag. We’ll hunt it like it matters.
