friend of mine had one on a high fence place...it destroyed one side of his truck attacking it's image reflecting off it.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I’ve only seen them in high fence. Are they native to Texas? Yup native to North Africa. Introduced to Texas in the 1950s I think.

My first morning hunting out there it was cloudy and foggy. I kept wondering why that bush kept moving very slow. Finally when it got light enough my guide said look at that trophy aoudad right there. I acted like I'd been watching it for a while. It was the bush I'd been seeing moving in that ravine

I’ve always wanted to shoot one but I’m not paying that much money for something you can’t even eat. From everything I’ve read they taste absolutely horrible You are correct. Some exotics are good to eat, but I've never heard anyone say Aoudad was one of them. They do make an awesome trophy, though.

My brother shot one in a high fence in Texas. The place was like a zoo. You could shoot anything you wanted. The guide put us in a shooting house, 15 minutes later a truck with a big fertilizer buggy came by, he blew his horn and drove around field spreading corn. The field was immediately full of every kind of animal you can imagine. Over 100 animals total. He shot a big sheep. The other animals didn’t even move. We got out of the stand to go look at his sheep and the other animals still didn’t move. They ate every kernel of corn and slowly disappeared into the brush. It’s a tough hunt That sounds like the exact opposite of how I’d ever want to go hunting for an animal and be successful.
If you want to always win, never play anyone better than you!

Personally, I think at a certain point a huge piece of property with a fence CAN be good hunting. A small property with tame animals on a schedule would be extremely boring. I am talking about wild free range aoudad hunting.

Truth and the polar opposite of how and where my outfitter friend guides for them.
