I need one of those. I've already have an oryx from NM. They will make nice bookend mounts. My mount is the 90' turn. One can turn left, the other right. They are tasty critters also.

Oryx are deeeelicious!!!!! Still eating on wifeys. Tried to get a Blackbuck doe back in February but was too busy helping Wifey try to get a cull doe down. Had numerous opportunities on some really nice Blackbucks. But I doubt my cousins would have appreciated me killing em!

Good to hear blackbuck make good eating Bob. seems to be mixed reviews on them, and Ive never had one. This may be changing soon though, with some luck!

Man I love the Gemsbok mounts, I've been applying for years in New Mexico for a Gemsbok tag but I've never been drawn for a hunt. I'm going to have to break down and pay for a hunt in Texas. Or maybe try and put together a plains game hunt. The Trophy fees, daily fees and the travel expense I could manage but all the taxidermy work would be a big number! Oh well a man can dream can't he? I'll throw up a few more of my Texas exotics photos. Baker
