Got my aoudad mount back today. Think he came out pretty good. Said I would never shoulder mount one and then ended up shooting this free range monster and kinda had to. 
That is awesome. My wife would say “take it to the garage”.
Pretty cool.
Where do you hunt one of those. I assume a high fence area?
While there many places you can hunt these behind a fence like so many exotics Texas has a large wild free ranging population.
This individual was a free ranging animal taken in west Texas out near Ozona. Those ranches out in west Texas are home to some of the largest wild aoudad in the world. So much so that SCI had to create a separate category for the North America aoudad as their horns are typically much larger than their brothers in North Africa due to the quality habitat west Texas provides.
You made a good choice with the shoulder mount, congrats.
I love that shoulder mount with the beard. Looks impressive!
Beautiful mount, who was your taxidermist?
I live in Nebraska. It was Scot Navratil at Frontier Taxidermy in Milford NE
You will be very hard pressed to find the quality of work he does at his prices. It was $1000 for the aoudad. You can find cheaper I’m sure but not with that quality of work most likely.
