Wanting a big eland bull

Wanting a big eland bull - 01/14/15 03:09 PM

I have few hunts lined up next 2 months but would like to start searching for a hunt for nice size eland bull for around Oct-Nov this year. Open to sugestions, just like to keep it in TX. Thought about a gator hunt, or proghorn hunt but for almost same amount of money can get a freezer full of meat

Wendy Lou Game Reserve has Eland.

I hunted there in 2013 and they had some massive Bulls.

Give them a call.

Thanks for the shout-out Ruff.

Our eland herd is growing very nicely and we have a couple of nice blue bulls that are maturing and would make outstanding wall-hangers. Here are a few recent photos (taken over Christmas week)





Some of the herd:


Happy to answer any questions.

That's a beautiful lodge, BTW, was it designed by an architect or is it some builder's plan? It's what I want if I ever move to the country.

Sorry about that Postoak! The lodge was designed by the lady who the ranch was named after - the wife of the owner. A lot of interesting African collectables built up over years give the place great character.

Mike, if you are still interested in a gator hunt let me know, I am booking gator hunts on the king ranch for non-core season. I tried to PM you but your box is full. It is Much cheaper than the average Texas Eland hunt but we can discuss that further more if this interest you, if not good luck on your Eland hunt!!
