Jagdart

Saddle-backed blesbuck are most often hunted using the spot-and-stalk method, a classic plains game approach. These animals prefer open savannahs and grasslands, making them easy to spot but challenging to approach due to their keen eyesight and wariness. Long-distance glassing is essential to locate a trophy ram, followed by a careful, strategic stalk using available terrain and natural cover to close the distance. Shots are typically taken at medium to long range, so hunters should be prepared with a flat-shooting rifle and quality optics to ensure success.
