Looking at booking an exotic hunt and wanted to get some opinions on what everyone thinks are the top few exotics to mount.

Thank You.

Blackbuck for sure. I could stare at my sons all day.

How much are you looking to spend? As is stated, Blackbucks are pretty as are Axis deer.....but a trophy Red Sheep or a Transcaspian Urial are pretty hard to beat.

Gemsbock, blackbuck, Scimitar horned oryx,

Are my favorites. Aoudad are impressive as well.

Axis make a pretty wall pedestal in my opinion as do an Oryx.



Of course a giant Aoudad makes a heck of a mount as well. grin

Maybe 3-4K on a hunt for starters.

I think a pedestal axis is hard to beat. Next would be an aoudad, blackbuck and scimitar within your price range. Best part about an axis and oryx is not only do you get a beautiful mount but you also get some of the best wild game meat. Best of luck!

Baker - hope all is well. Is that your aoudad?!? What a stud and amazing mount.

I saw a sable pedestal mount once that was on a beautiful oak floor pedestal. I still have dreams about hunting one of those someday.

Hard to say which one is my favorite, I like all of them, but this is the only one that I did in a full mount.
