[QUOTE="Plinker147, post: 2181576, member: 88320"] September will be hot, you don’t need to worry about cool weather that time of year. Get up on a high place and glass Oryx are plentiful and easy to find. It’s the earlier hunt so they won’t be that spooky but they won’t stand around at 300 yds and let you look them over. Be able to shoot standing, most is flat and trying to get prone or sitting to shoot are rare. Invest in a good tripod and saddle or Arca Swiss rail type shooting system. Be proficient shooting in that system out to 500 yards. Most shot opportunities will be 300-500. A good range finder that will range animals in flat country with nothing else to bounce off of. The cheaper ones like SIG kilos don’t cut it (trust me I know). The hunt coordinator is going to email you a lot of good info that will help with what to expect and field judging. Any Oryx 35-36” is a shooter, there are plenty of those. 38” and up are exceptional and not a lot of them but they are there. You will have a great time and should see 100 plus Oryx a day if you glass [/QUOTE]
