I agree, a Mountain Goat hunt or a Coastal Brown Bear is my dream hunt, but i'm forced to use an outfitter for a Brownie and i won't, so I'm hoping my next of kin in Alaska & I can make it happen one day.

Bison meat cow
Elk meat cow
Blue Nilgai

All with a modern inline muzzleloader. Im strictly a meat hunter and these are some of the best eating with lots of meat too. My aunt's husband in Texas sent me some nilgai meat once. I think it was from King Ranch. Darn fine eating.

I would love to put one of these in the freezer. About $2350 for 1 bull and 1 cow or $1950 just for a bull.

TX does a draw hunt every year for Nilgai that usually has leftover or standby tags available. Might be worth checking out.

The ones i found said no standby but the application date is long gone so that might be why. Prices looked pretty good and if im reading it right its no limit in some areas?

I found an article that says they had to cull 50+ earlier this year from a helicopter. What a waste of a tag for a great eating animal. You would think people would be lined up for those tags.

My understanding is the hunt is pretty difficult. They also do an aoudad hunt in Palo Duro Canyon that sells all the tags but people don't show up so they do standby on that too. Good hunt if you want an aoudad.

Alaskan brown bear

If you find a Kudo, please let me know since there is no such animal. Proper spelling is KUDU! Welcome to the site!

Moose and pronghorn. I think Moose will not happen but Pronghorn just might.
