TK14 Ranch Trophy Aoudad

Kyle  harvested a Super Trophy Aoudad with his bow this past weekend at the TK14 Ranch.  Ranking in the top 10 in the world taken with a bow with 15 inch bases and 34 inches of length, it was truly a once in a lifetime trophy.
After searching until dark for the ram, we gave up and returned early the next morning.  We located its track and trailed it through open country for 1/2 mile.  The trail lead us into some thick brush down a rocky hill where we lost its track.  Debating what to do next, we decided to split in opposite directions and start a sight search.  It began to feel a little hopeless when Old Dixie found deep it a cedar thicket.  Kyle said it was big but we couldn't believe the size of the animal and its massive horns.
