Brush Buster Report post Posted December 17, 2008 I shot this bull a couple days ago on my once in a lifetime hunt on the Rhodes Canyon unit. This was my first time to hunt Oryx, it was differnt but worthwhile. I had a good time hunting them. It was very windy with blowing dust, making glassing tough. We ended up hiking a couple miles into the foothills to get out of the wind, that is were we found the majority of the animals. We ended up seeing around 100 head on the hunt. This bull seamed to stand out from anything we saw. He was a little over 36 in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chef Report post Posted December 17, 2008 Congrats on a nice looking bull. Did you meet Jordan at the gate with Wild Mountain taxidermy? He's a stand up guy and does quality work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brush Buster Report post Posted December 17, 2008 Thanks, are you talking about Josh Jensen? I think his brothers name is Jordon but I do not know him. Josh is a great taxidermsit and a great person too, I have known him for a few years now. Yes I stoped by his stand for a visit, he watched my camera for me while I was hunting in the "camera free" missle range. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
