SUMMARY
REMARKS |
 |
| Problems
of Hunt: |
Shooter error resulted in a lengthy search for an Oryx in heavy brush. Ultimately located. |
| Highlights
of Hunt: |
Watching my son learn to stalk and shoot with a teacher that was passionate, patient and willing to teach two relatively inexperienced big game hunters. |
| Equipment
Recommendations: |
Heavy clothes for crashing through brush. Thick high ankled boots. |
| Would You
Recommend This Hunt to a Friend? |
yes |
| Why? |
My son and I had an absolute ball with Mr. Figge and his family at their ranch. Bill was patient with us, but tenacious in the pursuit of the best trophies. Bill's efforts helped my son take a monster blackbuck. The hospitality and food were delicious. We are anxious to return |
