So proud of my little lady! Hunted WSMR on her OIL trophy oryx hunt. Passed quite a few and made a long stalk on a herd but some other hunters bumped them. While making another plan this long cow started heading for us. She let her get to 140 yards and then smoked her!!! Couldn’t pass up an opportunity like that. 280 Ackley with a 168 accubond.

Thanks fellas!
I think she’s gonna do a euro and I tanned hide. I’m trying to figure out a way to cape his head to include it kinda like a zebra rug, split from the jaw and skin up I’m sure.

Appreciate all the kind words, she’s awesome and a lucky woman!! Hahaha

That was Rhodes Canyon.

How many years did it take her to draw?
Posted By: splattermatic Re: Bragging on Wifey - 12/10/19
That's where we've hunted.
Oryx fingers are awesome !!

Good job! I killed three of them, when I lived in NM and have yet to find any better eating.

Posted By: bluefish Re: Bragging on Wifey - 12/18/19
Awesome. I used to hunt 'blues quite a bit on BLM land just east and a little south of Artesia. Excellent little diner there with great chicken fried steak.
Posted By: Proud_Dad Re: Bragging on Wifey - 12/18/19
Awesome! Looks like a great adventure and memories. Congratulations to both of you!
Posted By: Cariboujack Re: Bragging on Wifey - 12/29/19
Congratulations to the Missus. They make a great shoulder mount. I've got a gemsbok on my wall and you need a tall ceiling but they are a beautiful mount. PM me if you want a picture. They are just amazing with all the marks on their faces. It would have been cheaper to do European mounts but there's just nothing like the shoulder mounts. Good job.
Posted By: NMpistolero Re: Bragging on Wifey - 12/30/19
Thanks! Yes sir, I’ve got a bull on the wall, so she decided to do a euro. She wanted to have the hide tanned so I caped it like a a zebra rug. I even got over the horns to keep the face! Hopefully it comes out the way I hope! I killed another,last week, I think I’m gonna have an artist friend carve the skull.
Posted By: Stump Buster Re: Bragging on Wifey - 12/30/19
Missed this the first go 'round..... CONGRATULATIONS on the lucky hunt draw, the take of a beautiful animal and I'm sure you'll really enjoy the great table fare, Gemsbok has a fantastic flavor!

And thanks for sharing.
Posted By: splattermatic Re: Bragging on Wifey - 02/11/20
I had one of my Oryx full body hides tanned.
With the head, looks cool.

Posted By: Filaman Re: Bragging on Wifey - 03/10/20
That's fantastic. My ex wife hunted, not so much this one. But this one can cook it better. And this one is a hell of a sausage maker.

Turned out great!
