Hunters Beware

A man by the name of Dan Herrera DBA Trophy Chasers http://www.trophychasers.com/about.html is as dishonest as they come. He sold me a aoudad hunt representing outbackoutfitters in west texas,while trying to choose hunt dates with billy jackson I was informed my deposit was never received. Also he sold 5 other gentlemen trophy mule deer hunts with billy jackson and that deposit was never received, total $9000.00. Dan Herrera will not answer phone calls, emails, text messaging nothing. Charges will be filed on monday 11-28-11 in the state of texas. Many of these hunts are sold on ebay. If anyone has experience with this kind of dishonesty please reply.
Ebay has been notified and has shut that avenue down.

Wow!!! The man is having a real issue and trying to prevent the same thing from happening to others. The best thing you can do is make an ignorant and pathetic statement?!?!?!


They run wild in west Texas, BTW.

Talk about ignorant. Do you even know what an aoudad is? Basically a Moutain goat like critter. I have personally seen one clear an 8 ft fence and have heard from reliable sources that they can "climb" out of a high fence by using a corner in the fence. The hunt was sold as a free range hunt on a 250,000 acre ranch in west Texas.

You owe him an apology. Are you man enough?

Don't we hear about this guy every year? I'm sorry you lost your bankroll, and I'm also sorry that some people are jackasses!

LAST EDITED ON Nov-26-11 AT 07:49PM (MST)[p]If he paid the guy mentioned its a high fence hunt,this particular POS has been ripping off people for years 3 min on google would have made that obvious,audad are just goats with longer horns,dont try t make it sound like hes paying to hunt mountain goat in Alberta.You paid a guy who is a notorious rip off artist to shoot domestic goats over a feeder,you didnt miss anything.I remember this same story back in 2007 and every year since,do some research before you book your next livestock shoot.

So you mean to tell me the aoudad sheep in New Mexico and Texas are all high fence? I am also guessing you think the ibex and oryx are the same. Hope I never see you post up with an exotic kill. ;)
 
Bought my first NM LO tag from Dan. He always answered my phone calls, before and after the hunt. I've heard lots of bad things however and have since purchased tags from another party.
 
LAST EDITED ON Nov-27-11 AT 06:50AM (MST)[p]Here is the advertisement for the hunt:

So you can accuse him of being naive and being a sucker (of course you are being a horses patut even then if you do) but you can't accuse him of trying to buy a canned/high fence hunt for tame animals.

You can also say that the Aoudad is not native to Texas and was imported, but you can't say that a hunt on a ranch that big in the Glass mountains of Texas is canned/high fence hunt.

I love guys who won't admit they are wrong even when shown the evidence. They just keep digging their own grave.

Thanks again Joe.

If you do it was killed on the continent of Africa
 
Thanks for the intel, was considering buying a scouting package from him, but I'll just save my $100. Thanks!

You do realize most hunting concensions in Africa are high fenced, right?
 
read the forum posted in 15 by Mtshezdedz---this is exactly what Dan Herrera did to me and he was certainly dishonest! good luck---
 
MTSHEDHEDZ, obviously you have never hunted Aoudad/Barbary sheep.

Funny to watch a guy step on his d!ck and still try to defend himself.

Second that, Paul.

Kudos to the other guy for coming on here to warn others. I think that's some useful info.

Very true! No matter what the hunt was for, your overlooking the problem. If what is being posted is accurate then the guys is a dirt bag.

"MTSHEDHEDZ, obviously you have never hunted Aoudad/Barbary sheep."

Obviously you have and your trying to make it sound like its actually "hunting".Ive been on a Texas ranch that offered these hunts,near Mountian Home,and seen these "wild" sheep,there was nothing wild about them,they are dependent on feeders and water sources that make them an easy target.I could turn loose a couple head of sheep and goats up here on our place for you if you are looking for more of a challenge.The suffolk sheep get really "wild" after a couple weeks in the field.

Back to the thread topic...
How does a guy like this that has been ripping people off for 20 years stay in buisness?

So you're comparing a game ranch in Mt Home to wild aoudad in west Texas??? Its very obvious you don't know what you are talking about.

Serious?!?!?!

I want to see you go hunt one.
 
You obviously don't know what you're talking about if you're calling those sheep hunts out in West Texas a piece of cake! The sheep you're talking about in the hill country around Kerrville are on highfenced properties that are like you said, but there is a big difference in hunting them there with feeders, etc. and the wild ones out on hundreds of thousands of acres in West Texas!
 
MTSHEDHEDZ: Do yourself a big favor and put in for the NM DIY Public Land Units 29-30 (right on the border of TX) this upcoming year. See page 49 of http://www.wildlife.state.nm.us/publications/documents/rib/2012/2012BIgGame.pdf; the deadline to apply is March 28. If you draw, they'll give you the entire month of February to find one of those beasts. It'll be a challenging & fun hunt, and my guess is the experience will probably change your attitude some about these "goats"...
