Nevada Guided Desert Bighorn Sheep Hunts

ABOUT OUTFITTER:
This HFA Endorsed Outfitter has been operating in Nevada for over 30 years and is fully licensed to guide hunts for all of the state's big game species. They offer customizable hunts tailored to your specific goals and preferences, so pricing may vary from what is listed in this profile.

With a long-standing track record of success—boasting over a 98% harvest rate—their team of experienced, highly qualified guides is committed to delivering exceptional results in the field.

HUNT DETAILS:
Nevada is home to all three subspecies of bighorn sheep: Desert, California, and Rocky Mountain. These tags are among the most coveted—and hardest to draw—in the country. Desert bighorns inhabit some of the most rugged terrain imaginable, and thanks to strong genetics and careful wildlife management, the quality of rams in the state remains outstanding.

This outfitter specializes in sheep hunts and considers them the crown jewel of their guiding services—it’s what they’re most passionate about.

Non-residents are eligible to apply for both Desert and California bighorn tags, while Nevada residents can apply for all three subspecies. If your goal is to draw a Desert bighorn tag, Nevada is the place to apply—they issue more non-resident Desert bighorn permits than any other state.

The diversity of habitat across Nevada offers a range of hunting experiences. Some units feature classic desert sheep country, while others may have you pursuing rams at elevations reaching 10,000 feet.

ACCOMMODATIONS:
They are a full service outfitter, and each hunt is customized to meet the hunter's specific needs. Accommodations and services will vary based on the level of support and amenities the hunter chooses.

LICENSE INFORMATION:
If you are looking for a book ram, you should stick with our top picks. It’s important to apply for units that match up with not only your size expectations but also within your physical capabilities. Nevada is a state that has something for everyone. A lot of units in Nevada can produce a 168" ram, but without inside information on a big ram, you should stick to units 181, 205, 253, 263, 267, 268, 242/271, and 283/284 if you are a non-resident. If you are a resident, you can also add units 241, 243, 244, 252, 253, 254, and 262 to the mix. These units consistently produce some great rams every year.
