This is the BEST tasting game meat - Ep. 33 - New Mexico Oryx Hunt

Chase drew a New Mexico "Off Range" Oryx tag for March 2017, and though the numbers of animals were low, the outcome was good. And come to find out, Oryx is probably the best tasting game meat we've ever had.

You guys make it look easy. From the footage to locating them, I tend to forget the time it must take all of you to locate these animals. Great job!

[@TheMountainProject]

It's no easy task

[@BrettVaughnB100]

I finally drew a off range tag this year .. this is right out my back door really .. I've hunted all that country a lot for coyotes deer and I have even caught a couple mountain lions out there .. Good stuff guys thanks for sharing !

[@TheMountainProject]

Sounds like you know the area and should find a good one!

[@kiesh1463]

You’re correct it is some great eating! Oryx, Pronghorn Antelope aka Speed Goats, then Rocky Mountain Elk are my top 3.

[@BenSand]

And now my bucket list has grown by one. Great hunt chase. Keep it up.

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Ben, definitely recommend this

[@johnramos8078]

I've had the pleasure to hunt with Derek he helped me get my OIL oryx great guy. Going back this year for my second ! Awesome footage.

[@Randy_Savage_ohyeah]

Think this is the first non-Africa Oryx hunt I've ever seen...pretty kewl! Congrats Chase.

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks James!

[@blakeshaver5621]

That slow motion after the shot and the drone footage at the end was awesome!

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Blake!

[@Basser1515]

Right on. I've got myself in for Oryx again this year and the first time putting in for an off range hunt. We will see what happens.

[@TheMountainProject]

Crossing my fingers for you, Rob!

[@emrysplane7354]

Nice make a vid so we can all come with you

[@Cdpkook3]

The kill scene was very Awesome! Get footage, music, sequence, slo mo, all the above. One of the best scenes of the season. Great video.

[@TheMountainProject]

thanks Collin

[@shelvinmurphy5709]

One of the coolest looking critters around. I was able to see a few while I hunted NM a few yrs ago.

[@TheMountainProject]

Really cool animals

[@mollytomfohrde9952]

What a unique animal and a great hunt. Loved the slow motion effect after that first shot!

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Molly!

[@dvskane1808]

Off range is rough, I’m hunting them now and at this point I would even shoot a no horn one for the meat. So, good harvest!

[@JorgeMartinez-gf7jk]

Fav video yet, amazing footage when it went slo mo after you shot!

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Jorge!

[@zackboothe1228]

wow that was incredible crazy how much the first shot deflected off that little branch. way to get the fallow up shot.

[@TheMountainProject]

there was no pushing it through to him... those trees were like a forcefield.

[@donjohnson4658]

Theme song is really good. Good video

[@dohiii]

Best tasting? Now i gots to try. Beautiful animal, great slow-mo of it running.

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks! yes it is, in my opinion

[@HuntrPat]

I have one of those from South Africa in 2015. Harvest 4 wart hogs, kudu cow. Impala ram. That was a cool hunt very arid conditions. Awesome Thanks again! Great video.

[@TheMountainProject]

I bet it was! How did yours taste?

[@HuntrPat]

It tasted great. Very rich flavor So did the kudu and Impala. Couldn't bring any meat back home we ate everything except the wart hogs. The outfitter did not want to serve it.

[@tonybonner1916]

Coming from Pennsylvania, I had no clue what a Oryx even was. Congrats. I realize I live on the wrong side of the country.

[@TheMountainProject]

haha, it's the wild west out here!

[@BrettVaughnB100]

I've taken a couple of guys out for Oryx .. that area is in my backyard .. they use to be a dime a dozen out there until they started that year round off range hunt.. it is the beat tasting meat around .. I know its hard to believe but I have caught a couple of lions out there .. both in the flats .. one was on Ted Turners ranch .. nice video and good hunt

[@TheMountainProject]

That's pretty cool! Different country to see lions in, for sure

[@adamt5410]

Awesome! By far my favorite tag I have ever drawn such a fun hunt

[@TheMountainProject]

Tough hunt, but fun!

[@BillFriemoth]

Best cut film yet! Great job on a tremendous trophy!

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Bill!

[@ralayers6598]

Great video, as always! You guys keep us all fired up to keep applying and getting out! Thanks

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Ral!

[@nicholasdeig1867]

Not a hunt you get to watch everyday, nice work!

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Nicholas!

[@kevzzz1186]

I've killed three Oryx in 18 years of living in NM. Plus I have helped numerous of friends and family with Oryx on and off range. The absolute best game meat EVER!

[@samueljones2878]

I've got my once in a lifetime hunt in the books. this year I draw off range as well

[@TheMountainProject]

That’s awesome!

[@cfrauenfelder57]

Another great one! I love how unique each video is.

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Corey!

[@kennethdonovan_nm]

I was wondering what would come next but didn’t expect this. Cool video.

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Kenneth!

[@eli9862]

How the heck I’ve been putting in for 10 years plus as a resident! On range, off range broken horn!

[@TheMountainProject]

Just bad luck, man! Us non residents are not in the same pool of tags as you are.

[@BillDay]

I haven’t ever hunted any African antelope species. The fact that you can chase this one in a neighboring state is intriguing.

[@TheMountainProject]

Pretty cool opportunity! Thanks New Mexico!

[@benjaminpitre5353]

Yet again.. another well filmed hunt. Awesome vid.

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Benjamin!

[@tomhinkle2517]

Love you guys reminds me of when I was your age ,keep up the good work and like seeing that you share your passion with family and freinds

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Tom!

[@nathanking6447]

Thanks for sharing your hunts with us. Such a beautiful animal. Well done.

[@TheMountainProject]

thanks Nathan!

[@jrbegay7757]

Awesome footage I specially like the slow motion kill shots you guy do. Congrats Chase!

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks! Appreciate you watching!

[@alexs1972]

Man... on range, off season, I nearly took one with a 3.5 Ford

[@johnfelix6404]

sweet lord Chase i hope u plan on building a trophy hall to show all your animals

[@TheMountainProject]

just stacking up the euro mounts!

[@_DB.COOPER]

I’ve taken over a dozen Oryx all right there around Alamogordo and none of them have tasted better than elk meat.

[@TheMountainProject]

Next time we get an elk we’ll trade ya

[@_DB.COOPER]

@@TheMountainProject nice. Just Returned last night from a successful Northern NM elk hunt. One hunt left for the year, next months mule deer hunt.

[@dylanmchugh1130]

Beautiful animal. Nicely filmed too! Officially addicted to MP! Great content.

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Dylan!

[@kathleenhalvorsen2054]

Nice oryx .. Awesome filming .. Better than any show on tv

[@TheMountainProject]

THanks Kathleen!

[@phillipcramer9512]

Another great video with a dang nice trophy! Got me excited for the Coues hunts coming up though! Keep up the great work fellas it is awesome and unique and very enjoyable.

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Phil! Coues is next

[@manifestdestiny1191]

My tank company was out in that basin training and one of the sergeants thought he saw an enemy tank target through the thermal sights. He shot a 120mm sabot round at it and hit it... tower called "cease fire! That's not a target!" When we went to investigate we found a blood stain and an oryx leg... so we accidentally hunted one?

[@TheMountainProject]

That’s crazy! And awesome

[@JESSEPAVON]

I was lucky to harvest my 37.5 Oryx a few years back, now I’ll have my wife put in for Oryx.

[@TheMountainProject]

That's a good one! congrats

[@jeffreyfalls519]

So many cool opportunities around. As tough as this looked, without a buddy who doesn't know the area, can the average guy even pull something like this off? Cool video. 👍👍

[@TheMountainProject]

You sure can!

[@mattn5899]

I can see a lot of those ridges out of my front door. Depending on what side of the range you were on, either looking at the same side or opposite side.

[@bryancolby640]

You guys just got alittle cooler. Another great video.

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Bryan!

[@remington300]

Very well done video! What is this rad intro song? Thanks!

[@UnevenTerrainOutdoors]

Dang you guys had quite the luck in the draw this year! Awesome video!

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks! we did get lucky!

[@justinhaas3006]

Another great video! Nice off hand shooting chase!

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Justin!

[@adamlevine6490]

Congrats on a nice Oryx. You guys keep producing some great vids with awesome content!

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Adam!

[@orlyk691]

Been applying for oryx in NM for 20 years. Still haven't drawn

[@brockroe73]

It took me all October to finally take one in the same area you guys were at. Those Oryx are real hard to put down on the first shot.

[@TheMountainProject]

Not an easy hunt, and yes they are tough!

[@mikerenfro2970]

Hey feller been looking all over them off range can't seem to find them. Think u could drop me a clue. Trying to get my son on one

[@brianwooldridge5027]

Always wanted to hunt Oryx and ibex in NM. Congrats on another great hunt and video!

[@TheMountainProject]

Definitely worth applying for! Thanks Brian!

[@wcw3]

Ha love the glassing from the top of the truck. Use what you’ve got right?!

[@TheMountainProject]

Exactly! Thanks for watching Chris

[@MyPastman]

Little surprised it didn’t drop in its tracks, were ya ??? Lol. When hunting oryx be prepared to shoot again!

[@TheMountainProject]

Surprisingly enough, the one shot that hit him dropped him! The miss didn't do much, lol

[@emgee3604]

My Enchanted home New Mexico 👌💙 congratulations!

[@TheMountainProject]

Thank you! it's a beautiful place

[@RiverbendlongbowsOutdoors]

Looking forward to the longbow hunt for sure. Keep em coming buddy 👍 🎯

[@joshuaclowers7435]

Really enjoyed the cinematography of this video. Also, Whitesands is the worst base in the USAF.

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Josh!

[@sethwalker1986]

Great content daily, thats the Mountain Project!

[@cmontano4622]

Greetings from Santa Fe, New Mexico. Welcome guys!! With all the damn tree huggers in this state. You guys show true hunting at its best.

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks brother!

[@texastaggers7430]

Dude! Awesome hunt and amazing footage!! Congratulations

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks guys

[@jasonsanchez8006]

Im from El Paso and im quite familiar with the areas surrounding WSMR.... Where off range do you go? Cause im hella down to go bag my 1st Oryx

[@robertbernard603]

Is this hunt a once in a lifetime hunt like the hunt on the white sands missile range. The reason I ask is I Drew the on range hunt about 6 or seven years ago when it was only a 2 day hunt. I passed on alot of animals the first day. the second day I put alot of presure on myself and with a storm moving in and running out of time I got my Oryx but mistakenly shot what they call a Browny which is an immature animal.the meat was great but to be honest I was very disappointed with myself. I need to redeem myself .I literally had depression I couldn't get rid of for months.

[@bobspacyjr9358]

Damn, another hunt your doing on my bucket list. I have a love hate relationship with you guys, love the vids, hate you for doing them and I haven’t.

[@TheMountainProject]

hahaha! thanks Bob!

[@jennifersmall8670]

😮 that’s awesome never knew those were there in New Mexico

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Jennifer!

[@kevinguzman1345]

[@TheMountainProject]

[@Ocordova66]

[@AZbone]

[@TheMountainProject]

[@tomwise1663]

Very cool hunt I've heard that they are scarce in that area cool that you saw 2. Were you shooting the 28 nosler again?

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Tom, this was actually a 300 rum.

[@marchungerford2612]

great stuff guys. love it.

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Marc!

[@gavinbirch8696]

You said “ya this one has two horns”. Do some only have one horn?

[@TheMountainProject]

Yes, they break them off

[@drested1793]

Great video. Several years ago there were decent numbers off range and back then the tag was good for the whole year. Anyways, nice video.

[@rickcourser9992]

You’ve had some great hunts chase you lucky SOB, good job love to see it thanks man 👍

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Rick! I was lucky enough to draw a few tags in 2017! very thankful for them too

[@Ruger41mag]

Whoda thunk off range oryx was available .... brilliant!

[@TheMountainProject]

Yessir, do it!

[@RiverbendlongbowsOutdoors]

Just noticed my notification bell wasn't on. Holy crap I've got a lot of videos to catch up on. Umbers 😯

[@TheMountainProject]

[@chris_williams_ky]

Cool show guys!

[@TheMountainProject]

thanks!

[@strammel]

Tell us more about how good the meat is. You guys must have a lot of freezer space.

[@TheMountainProject]

We have several chest freezers!

[@hunt_excelpaulbais2876]

Excellent slow mo shot footage! How many FPS were you filming on that?

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks! 180 i believe

[@chris_hofius]

Beautiful animal. Congrats!

I would love to do this someday great video as always!!!

[@remingtonlittle]

beautiful scenery

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Remington! for being a desert it's pretty cool

[@sagepeery6168]

I work with a guy that grew up in Africa. He agreed on how tasty they are.

[@TheMountainProject]

Delicious!

[@kennyharding511]

Awesome hunt awesome footage awesome everything what else can I say thanks for sharing

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Kenny!

[@RiverbendlongbowsOutdoors]

Awesome! Used to shoot a lot of quail out there. We're you outside of Deming or closer to Cruses?

[@noahpuryear8755]

Probably over between cruces and alamo

[@mattn5899]

Between cruces and Alamo is white sands missile range. Saw a pic quik cup, so I’m guessing north of hatch.

[@RiverbendlongbowsOutdoors]

@@mattn5899 😊👍

[@triggerhappy5680]

i wouldn't want to pay you boys and girls taxidermy bill ! '')

[@TheMountainProject]

It's mostly euro mounts! All of our money goes to the tags!

[@triggerhappy5680]

that's a good idea ... i really enjoy your channel i know you guy's are working your asses off thanks !

[@anthonybenes5899]

Great hunt! One more reason to manage native and non-native game!

[@TheMountainProject]

Thanks Anthony! we agree

[@brodeebell7002]

That tag probably hurt your wallet. Great video!

[@TheMountainProject]

It's not cheap. But worth it!

[@lungbustercrnvr1384]

Had no clue we had free range Oryx anywhere but Texas. Why would you have to draw a tag for an exotic? In Michigan anything even Elk and Whitetails that escape from game ranches can be shot ON SIGHT with any valid hunting license. An Elk or Whitetail BETTER have an ear tag or your in BIG trouble, but ALL other exotics need no ear tags.

[@DrPxl1985]

Smooth work getting under that barbed wire fence! I have some horrible fence crossing stories from my area that’ll make most people think twice about going over!

[@TheMountainProject]

Oh man! That doesn't sound good

[@tnm1697]

Did you do a taste test? Would like to see a live reaction to chowing down on one of those Gemsbok

[@TheMountainProject]

It’s outstanding.
