[QUOTE="wildcat westerner, post: 2716036, member: 21361"] With regard to Oryx or Gemsbock ( two names, same animal), I would seriously dispute the statement of that animal not being the best wild game to eat on this planet! I've consumed both African and U.S. Oryx from New Mexico and it is OUTSTANDING! Perhaps some oryx in some pen somewhere has been fed something that affects the taste of that animal. Any wild oryx subsisting on the desert environment is extremely tasty. For those of you wanting to hunt these incredible animals, I suggest two things: patience and the New Mexican draw hunts. Everybody with a rifle tries to draw the Oryx once in a lifetime hunt as a native New Mexican resident. Non residents get few tags but so few non residents apply for this hunt that the odds for a non resident are higher than anybody living in the state of New Mexico. From what Iam reading in this column it would be much cheaper to hunt on the WSMB ( White Sands Missile Base) in New Mexico, which is 3x as large as Rhode Island, than other places which feature these animals. Since they are such nomadic animals, they have gone off base to both Texas and Arizona. [/QUOTE]
