If you're looking to add something special to your trophy room, this springbok hunt with Angry Goat Outfitters in West Texas is exactly what you need. These African antelope aren't your typical whitetail - they're sleek, fast, and downright gorgeous with those curved horns and distinctive markings that'll catch your eye from 300 yards out. Our private ranch gives you the space and freedom to hunt these beauties without dealing with crowds or public land headaches. You'll be working with guides who know these animals inside and out, so whether this is your first exotic hunt or you're adding to an already impressive collection, we've got the experience to make it happen. This is a solo hunter experience, so you'll get personalized attention and won't be rushing to keep up with a group.
This isn't your average deer lease experience. We're talking about hunting one of the most agile and alert animals you'll ever put in your crosshairs on prime West Texas ranch land that's been managed specifically for exotic game. The terrain here works in your favor - rolling hills, scattered mesquite, and open flats that give you multiple shot opportunities while still providing enough cover to get within range. Your guide will pick you up early and spend time glassing before making a move, because springbok have incredible eyesight and will spot you long before you see them if you're not careful. These aren't lazy ranch animals - they're alert, quick to spook, and will test your shooting skills. The guides know every water source, feeding area, and travel route on the property, which means you'll be hunting smart instead of just driving around hoping to get lucky. Plan on a full day of hunting, and bring your patience because these animals will humble you if you rush the shot.
West Texas terrain is perfect for spot-and-stalk hunting, which is exactly how you want to hunt springbok. We're talking about open country with scattered brush that lets you glass from elevated positions and plan your approach. Your guide will have quality optics, but bring your own binoculars if you've got a good pair - you'll be doing a lot of glassing. The key to success here is patience and shot placement. Springbok might look delicate, but they're tough animals that require a well-placed shot. We recommend bringing a flat-shooting rifle in .243 or larger - something accurate out to 200-300 yards because you won't always get close. The ranch roads are well-maintained, so you'll be comfortable getting around in a pickup, but be ready to walk when it's time to close the distance. Early morning and late afternoon are your prime times, just like hunting most game, but springbok will move throughout the day to water sources, especially during warmer months. Your guide will read the wind and plan approaches accordingly because these animals have excellent noses to match their sharp eyes.
Springbok are hands down one of the most beautiful trophies you can hunt in Texas. These medium-sized antelope typically weigh between 60-90 pounds, with rams sporting those distinctive lyre-shaped horns that curve backward and can reach 14-20 inches. What really sets them apart is their coloring - that rich tan coat with white belly and distinctive dark stripe running along their sides makes them instantly recognizable. They're incredibly athletic animals, capable of jumping 10 feet high and running up to 60 mph when they want to move. The famous "pronking" behavior, where they bounce straight up in the air with all four legs stiff, is something you'll likely see during your hunt and it's a sight you won't forget. Best hunting is typically during cooler months when they're more active throughout the day, but these animals adapt well to Texas heat and can be successfully hunted year-round. What hunters love most about springbok is the combination of their stunning appearance and the challenge they present - they're not going to stand around and wait for you to get ready. A mature ram with good horn development and that classic springbok coloring will look fantastic on any wall, and the meat is excellent table fare if you're planning to have your trophy processed.
