I went to Texas this year with the intention of only going after a free range Hill deer and some pigs with my bow. I was hunting with Action Outdoors Adventures.
To make a long story short. After 3 hunts and 12 hours of sitting hunt number 4 was my time. 25yard shot. He went 20 yards after a double lung hit. 125gr Slicktrick Standard.

This finished things up for me a couple days early. I enjoyed that hunt so much I wanted to go and try for another one. The owner of Action Outdoors asked me if I still wanted an Oryx. I told him I did. He knew of a ranch with a permit I could hunt. I forgot all about hunting pigs to get this Oryx. Two days and eight hours of waiting and I finally got the Oryx. Was it worth it? Oh yes it most definitely was!!! First shot was further back than I would like. I took a 60 yard follow up shot and closed the deal. The animal went another 60 yards but no further. Slicktrick 125gr standards strike again.

I believe that is a Scimitar Oryx.
The econuts would be going crazy over it.
