About Oryx hunting
Beautiful and graceful, with long saber-sharp horns and unusual face marks, is the classic African trophy that will make a lasting memory of your adventure. The hunt itself will be worthy of memories. An open plain where you can see every movement of the wary animal, the highest degree of tension at every moment of the stalk. The strange, outlandish beauty of the Kalahari Desert, the home of the Gemsbuck, will make a perfect background for this truly African adventure. No wonder Gemsbuck is included in the number of the must-have African antelope trophies.
Where to hunt Oryx
Oryx is a genus of antelopes well adapted to dry open semi-deserts and steppes. Today, four main species of Oryx are recognized. South African Oryx, a.k.a. Gemsbok or Gemsbuck, has a healthy and abundant population in South Africa, Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe. It is also a popular animal with game farms and ranches, and there’s a free-ranging huntable population in New Mexico, USA. Closely related to it is East African Oryx, divided into Beisa and Fringed-Ear susbspecies. The opportunities to hunt this subspecies are limited and exist mostly in Tanzania. Scimitar and Arabian Oryx are strictly protected across their native range, but healthy herds are kept on game farms and ranches in South Africa and the USA, and a limited number of them are harvested each ear, the proceeds going to finance the operations.
Preisverteilung
The most affordable Oryx hunting opportunities exist in Namibia, where management/cull hunts start at about $1,000. Shooting fee for a trophy South African Oryx varies from $600 to $1,500, with some outfitters charging even more for record book size horns. With daily rates and perhaps a few other trophies the price of a complete hunt will be in the $1,500 - $5,000 range. The shooting fees for a Scimitar Oryx run about $2,000 - $4,000 shooting fees, and Arabian Oryx are as expensive as $15,000. The most expensive Oryx hunting deals are packages with other, often iconic, animals, and hunts in Tanzania.

When to hunt Oryx?
Oryx hunting opportunities exist year-round, as they happen on private game ranches, as exotics, and/or in countries with generous hunting seasons. The best time for Oryx hunting, however, is a matter of debate. Some South African outfitters say it’s better to hunt in November – April, where flourishing vegetation of the bush makes stalking easier. In many areas, however, these dates will be too hot for long spot-and-stalk hunts on foot, and it’s much better to hunt from April to October.

Jagdart
The most popular way of hunting this antelope is by the classic African spot-and-stalk. Typically for Africa, hunters cover ground in vehicles, glass for animals, and stalk them on foot once they are located. While on some game farms and ranches it may dwell in bush and scrub country, usually Oryx is a creature of wide open spaces, and is blessed with keen eyesight and natural wariness. This adds challenge to the hunt (and calls for a long-range, flat-shooting rifle). The long horns of the Oryx are as deadly as sabers (which is the reason why Oryx is sometimes called the Saber Antelope), and Oryx are known to have killed lions with them, so you should be extra careful when approached a wounded or not definitely dead Oryx.

The Golden Gemsbuck is a variation of the regular Gemsbuck. Blessed with keen eyesight and natural wariness these animals can be extremely challenging to hunt especially in areas with thick bush and dense scrub.
Why hunt Oryx?
The beautiful horns and skin of the Oryx, as well as its delicious meat, have long attracted hunters. Unregulated and irresponsible slaughter with the help of modern weapons and vehicles drove many populations of Oryx to extinction, and in fact the only reason why Scimitar and Arabian Oryx exist at all is due to captive herds, that are being used to source animals for reintroduction program. Zoos can’t support a population with sufficient genetic diversity; keeping enough of the animals is possible only on game farms, and trophy hunting serves as the most efficient source of financing for them. That’s so far as conservation aspect goes, but what about the hunt itself? An open plain where you can see every movement of the wary animal, the highest degree of tension at every moment of the stalk, and a lasting memory in the form of a couple of beautiful horns. Enough to make any hunter want to hunt this antelope.
