The elusive Oryx is one of the most coveted tags in the United States. New Mexico is the only place in North America that you can hunt these animals in a free-range environment. The off-range tags that New Mexico provides allows hunters to pursue these amazing animals for an extended period of time. The only catch is that they can be difficult to find off the White Sands Missile Range.
Gaven is not new to Oryx hunting as this is his third opportunity to hunt these animals. With two previous successful harvests, he is focused on getting a new personal best. There were a few close encounters on the first couple of days, but he was holding out for an Oryx over 34 inches. After locating where they were normally hanging out, it was time to find one that fit his standards.
The second week of hunting was a roller coaster ride. After getting on an Oryx, going through a two-hour stalk, and finally getting a shot; they ran out of daylight to track the animal and finish the job. The team then got the truck stuck in one of the many washouts from the summer monsoons. After having a good friend come to the rescue, they made it back to camp to prepare to find the Oryx the next day. Gaven had one thing on his mind, find the Oryx and punch his tag.
After tracking for a significant distance through the desert, Gaven and Cody found the Oryx. Once they confirmed it was the same one Gaven shot the day before, he put another shot in. Gaven punched his tag on a beautiful female Oryx that measured out to 38 inches. These animals are some of the most exotic and beautiful creatures in New Mexico and we are blessed to have the opportunity to hunt them.
