10-Day New Mexico Bighorn Sheep Hunt (Draw Tag)

For hunters fortunate enough to draw a New Mexico Bighorn Sheep tag, LOH Outfitters offers an intensive 10-day fully guided hunt built around making the most of this rare opportunity. New Mexico is home to both Rocky Mountain Bighorn and Desert Bighorn Sheep, with hunts ranging from high-elevation mountain wilderness to the rugged desert country of southern New Mexico.

These are challenging spot-and-stalk hunts that require extensive glassing, careful planning, and experienced guides. Depending on the tag drawn, hunters may find themselves pursuing Rocky Mountain Bighorn in steep alpine country or hunting Desert Bighorn across dry, rocky canyon and desert terrain.

Elevation can range from approximately 4,500 feet to 13,000 feet, and the physical demands of each hunt vary considerably based on location. High-country hunts may require horseback access and involve rapidly changing mountain weather, while lower-elevation and desert hunts can offer better vehicle access but still require navigating steep canyons, rocky slopes, and difficult terrain.

Sheep have exceptional eyesight, and hunters should expect considerable time behind quality optics followed by deliberate stalks that may require longer-range shooting. LOH strongly recommends arriving physically prepared and spending significant time at the range before the hunt.

Because drawing a New Mexico Bighorn Sheep tag is such a rare opportunity, LOH provides a dedicated scouting and guide team, meals, accommodations, and up to 10 days in the field to give the hunter the best opportunity possible to make the hunt count.

IMPORTANT: This is a draw hunt and is exclusively available to hunters who successfully draw the applicable New Mexico hunting tag.

New Mexico offers a dedicated Outfitter Draw Pool for hunters applying with a registered outfitter. When you apply through LOH Outfitters, your application is entered into this separate pool, which can provide better draw odds than the standard nonresident draw for many hunts. LOH can help guide you through the application process and make sure everything is submitted correctly.
