New Mexico: ORYX

[fishing4sanity]

Photos are second to none fishin4....congrats on a trophy Oryx. The Badger looks 'indifferent'.....

Land Of Enchantment is a spot on handle.

I had been stopped trying to get a landscape pic when he came my direction. He was headed right to me, but in my un-stealthiness he heard/saw me (last pic) and hightailed it the other direction. I was hoping to see how close he would get, these were at about 20-25 yards.

Congrats on the oryx!! How long of horns on it?

I believe they were just under 37" and just over 37" horns. I wish I had them with me, but they're at the taxidermist ..... for a good while I'm guessing.

Love the macro photo the most, which is saying something as your photography is uniformly amazing. Congratulations and thanks for sharing your trip.

Very nice trip and hunt of a lifetime. I have not been to New Mexico in 2 decades but what I remember about the landscape is as you have defined in your photos.

Nice photos. I go down there for an off range hunt in a few weeks so this post is getting me excited.

Beautiful animal, congrats! You certainly made the most of that trip. I'm not sure I have ever seen the white sand that gives the area its name, so thanks for including those.

Your photos never cease to amaze. Glad you could get way from the farm and make this hunt happen! Congratulations.

Congrats, you're having a great year. That Oregon countryside looks familiar.
