Just got back from the Ox Ranch on Wednesday chasing blackbucks. All I have to say is what a beautiful ranch, I took my son with me and he had a blast as much as I did. When we showed up, it was awesome to see animals I’ve never seen roaming around just in the main lodge area. There were warthogs and some other kind of pig that reminded me of a bush pig that was about 300#’s. It was cool that you get your own log cabin while staying there and was the nicest cabin I’ve ever stayed in. I’ve never really hunted blackbuck before and my opinion of them is completely different now. When I had them on an old lease of mine they were pretty passive but not these. I watched one jet black guy push out a fallow, axis and a young oryx from the feeder we were hunting. It took a lot for me not to shoot the jet black guy on the first evening, but I chose horn length over hide color. This guy I believe was 20 1/4” and 20 1/2” straight tape per my guide. I wasn’t exactly sure how to officially measure him and really don’t care at this point, he’s at Tri-State Taxidermy getting mounted for the wall. I can’t wait to see what looks like again.
I think someone on here said the Ox Ranch is a premium ranch that commands a premium price. After going I’m a believer in you get what you pay for, bargain hunt, bargain experience.
And if you’re a history person, DriveTanks.com was very cool.
