Hunting methods

This species of Reedbuck live loosely in small groups making use of long grass and reed beds for cover in which to hide. Due to their solitary behaviour it is best to stalk along the edges of their preferred habitat. The best time to hunt them is early in the morning and late afternoon where they will break cover to feed, especially on emerging green grass on burnt areas. Be ready for a quick shot as they tend to jump up at the last minute out of their resting place, sometimes stopping to look back, giving you enough time for a quick shot.

Many of the subspecies of this antelope are named after its country or region of distribution. Budget wise, this is an affordable species that should not be overlooked when the opportunity arises. It makes for a great shoulder mount, pedestal mount or even a European skull mounted on a shield looks pretty awesome. If you want to keep the natural look of the horns, ensure your taxidermist does not polish them. Reedbuck make up some of the best tasting camp meals, so be sure to give it a try while you are in Africa.
