A friend and I went out this week to get ourselves a couple Scimitar Horned Oryx females. This was my friend's first Oryx, and my second (I shot a bull 2 years ago). Both were very large cows....with my friend's measuring 41" and mine measuring 42.5".

Here are the trophy photos....along with a few other pictures from the trip.

Well done, Wade. Congrats! tu2 tu2

I love those sweeping lines of the horns. And those creatures are large, too; they dwarf the nice axis buck in the photo.

Thanks for sharing the photos...

Great animals. Where in Texas is it really that green? BTW, tell William I said hi!
