Looking to go after a Nilgai bull or cow in the next month or two.

Clicked on their "videos" tab. Pass. Stupid music. Stupid (and some out of focus) pics. Looks like put together by a bunch of kids.

I mean this with all due respect and I'm asking because I really don't know. But I have talked to a few people that recommended the king ranch. Which sounds like they have a really good track record. I have found a couple of Nilgai hunts online for around the $3500-$4500. What does your ranch offer that the $3000 king ranch hunt doesn't. I wouldn't pass on a great hunt over $500 cost difference but I also don't want to overpay. The King Ranch is the most famous place for Nilgai. Which I understand famous doesn't necessarily mean good.

Good question. I guided on the King Ranch - you are paying for the name. I am very familiar with their program. There are a ton of other ranches out there that have cheaper, equivalent, and more expensive prices. I personally only take a handful of clients nilgai hunting a year. Its a 1x1 hunt, 100% success rate, and to me that is worth a little more. No offense taken thats a great questions that others are probably wondering as well.

Kayote outfitters is a reputable outfitter. Beto "Kayote" is a great guide and the ranch is beautiful. Easy to see thirty nilgai in one sitting. They are also very affordable. I highly recommend them. I gotta say Creekrunner sounds like a total snob. When I went I was on the doe/spike hunt. I shot a hog and two spikes in the first 15 miuntes for the low price of $175 per spike no charge on hogs. Saw several nice management bucks as well. This is a low fence fair chase hunt with tons of great game.

I have no affiliation with them but couldn't see someone say something as ignorant as Creekrunner without giving my honest opinion.

X2 on Pierce Trophy Hunts. Brent is a great guy, have hunted last three years with his crew. I have hunted nilgai on the King, Mariposa and other places. Would not recommend the King, they like to drive you around in a truck until you jump animals, slam on the breaks and shoot as fast as you can. Not my definition of fun.

I have killed big bulls with Brent’s folks. True spot and stalk on a beautiful ranch. Cheaper than the others listed on this thread too...good food and accommodations as well..
