the first "guided" hunt i went on, and the only guided hunt i went was awful. now that i look back on it. i was young and went with my step-dad who thought he was being nice, he has never hunted before. at the time, i loved it. but now, the "Mouflon Ram" that i went there to hunt was no more than some kind of domestic goat that got the business end of my 30-06. the guy was a flop, we tried to call him back later to get pictures and he would never return our calls. but, this was a small one man, 150 acre "game ranch" in east texas, i am sure that the giant game ranches in the south texas and other places that have been correctly managed would be worth it. i would look for one that will do some rattling or spot and stalk for you though, rather than sitting in a stand somewhere.
