When is the Blackbuck's coat in it's prime. I am wanting to hunt one when they are at their prime color. I want a DARK sable brown buck. Please advise.
Thanks Mark

Their coats are typically good all year but the bucks tend to have a darker color the older they are.

This time of year is the best in my opinion we are starting to hunt them know

In my opinion they darken in October and stay dark through January

I believe he's referencing the quantity he has (30+), not the horn length, but I could be mistaken. A 30"+ blackbuck would be demand some serious coin.
