You will never hear a better story about a true once a lifetime hunt! In 2004, our good friend and fellow firefighter Kelley Cato thought someone was messing with him when he got a phone call saying he had won a Texas Desert Bighorn hunt in the Sierra Diablo Mountains. But come to find out, this opportunity from Texas Parks and Wildlife was as real as they come! In part 1 of 2 of our Texas Bighorn podcast, Kelley sits down with Sam and sets the stage for what would be, and still is the most memorable hunt of his life. This was literally a one in a million shot for him to receive this rare tag, allowing him to hunt this extremely protected species. Kelley talks about what all went into preparing for this hunt, the extreme challenges of hunting Texas Bighorns, and the harshness of the environment these animals call home. It doesn't matter what you yourself are accustomed to hunting... do not skip over this episode, and certainly do not miss part 2 (Episode 62). This is by far one of our greatest podcast conversations and guests to date!
