Hoping to do a Nilgi hunt soon and was looking for some input from those who have done it and where. I know we have them in south Texas but where else are they found in the US. It seems I have heard they were imported from India. Thanks, Dave | ||

havent hunted them in yrs. I don't have a clue how many good blue are around anymore in South Texas. I heard that german meat company bought quite a few a few yrs back, but not sure. I do know 20 yr ago, there were a lot of good blue bulls down south yrs ago. I understand they try to keep the numbers down but still some good bulls, but not the numbers of yrs past. My Exfather inlaw told me many yrs ago the King Ranch brought Nilgai and axis deer in cotton trailers down FM 70 from Hiway 77 in front of my Ex Father inlaws house and had a flat and borrowed a tire off one of his cotton trailers. Axis deer ended up behind the power plant in Flower Bluff...........Nalgai headed south down the Kennedy County Shoreline. Heck, my huntin partner has seen them across the Rio Grande in Mexico, they been in South Texas for a long time. They sure are hard on horses and fences. Cold weather is real hard on them. I'd book a hunt directly with one of the big South texas ranches that hunts them regular, and I probably wouldnt hunt on the west side of Hiway 77 unless something has changed. I doubt you will find them much north of Kleberg County, but I've seen them adversised for hunting in the Texas Hill Country, but I would figure the cold would get them. I think some of the ranchs in NE mexico have a few and a fellow could probably find a hunt, but I wouldnt recommend that unless somebody knew the ropes.

Dave, check out my threads for my nilgai experinces and pm me if you have any questions. https://forums.accuratereloading.com/eve/forums/a/tp.../109101691#109101691 https://forums.accuratereloading.com/eve/forums/a/tp.../855105321#855105321 Good Hunting!
