Ultimate Sheep Hunting offers 2 Great Sheep Hunts
Nevada offers several different types of bighorn sheep hunts. We offer hunts for the Desert ? Nelson, Rocky Mountain, and California Bighorn sheep. Our sheep hunts generally take place on public lands. Nevada is 87% public lands, so access to big game animals is never a problem.
