Russell E. TaylorI realize nilgai get a lot of flack for not being one of the handsomest animals... but I still think they're neat, and tough as nails. One of these days, one of these days. Sure looks like you got a nice bull. I've heard many nice things about that particular operation... and it seems its reputation is as strong as ever.
Congratulations on the nice hunt.
Oh... if you shoot a bison... make sure you have freezer space. Go ahead -- ask me how I know.

The gentleman I know is Fausto Yturria.
He might be of the same family.

bwanamrmGentlemen,
Check out this website
www.allseasonguides.com Capt. Mike Powell set this little adventure up for me. Price info and minimum calibers are discussed as well. Mike also has access to a killer whitetail ranch!

Saeedgas57,
Thank you very much for your offer.
It seems next time I come visit the US I might have to stay a few years there. Just to make sure that I keep my promises to all my friends who have kindly offered to take me hunting all the big game animals, varmints and birds they hunt.
Not to mention those who keep asking me every year if I wished to be registered for some target shoot they are putting their names down for. Ranging from trap to bench rest.
Not to forget an old man who has promised to teach me how to rope disgruntled German hunters.

D HunterThe Yturria boys that told me that the King ranch was closed to individual hunters. But they may have been telling me that to prevent competition. We will see. "D"
