[QUOTE="dxlbaile, post: 2181587, member: 91579"] [B]All good advice.. I would definitely get some sticks with a saddle.. I've used shocky sticks but, Hog saddle is much better and more sturdy for long shots. Once the Oryx get hunted they will start running early when they see you coming... Practice long and you might get lucky and shoot within 200 yrds but, not likely.. Take a gps to mark the spot you shoot a oryx.. it can get confusing to find your way back to your truck when you get tracking animals.. Shot placement is straight up the leg, center mass of the body... I have hunted them here in the US and In Africa, their vitals sit a little more forward than elk and deer.. Straight up the leg center mass. Be ready for a follow up shot.. Hardy animals.. You will be given maps of the area when you get there.. Some areas will be closed depending on time of year and hunt you have drawn. Look at google maps of your area and main roads .. Be familiar so you aren't just wandering.. Any Oryx is a tropy here.. !! Don't mess around waiting for a big boy .. You will go home empty handed.. 34 Inch is a average bull nowadays.. a few bigger but, not many.. You have drawn the Holy Grail of Oryx tags.. Enjoy it ! It is a short hunt so savor the time you have on the range.. Most folks will never get to go out and see the range.. There are some nice deer and elk out there so just soak it in.. Sept is still Hot..... Hunt early because the Oryx will shade up.. then they get back up in the afternoon and move again until dark... Good luck Amigo![/B] [/QUOTE]
