Hosted by: Double Shot Outfitters

Season: Year-Round Opportunities Available


Embark on an Unforgettable Nilgai Hunting Adventure

Nilgai hunting in South Texas offers one of the most thrilling and unique big game experiences you can find in the United States. At Double Shot Outfitters, you’ll pursue these powerful, elusive animals across nearly 200,000 acres of free-range terrain, giving you unmatched opportunity and room to hunt.


Originally introduced to South Texas in the late 1920s, nilgai populations have flourished, creating a challenging and rewarding hunt. Known for their sharp senses and rugged durability, these animals demand patience, precision, and persistence—making every successful harvest that much more rewarding.


Our team works tirelessly to stay on the animals, offering 100% shot opportunity on our hunts, with it not uncommon to see 100+ nilgai in a single day. Whether you're a seasoned hunter or looking to experience something new, this is a hunt you won’t forget.


What’s Included

  • Access to nearly 200,000 acres of prime South Texas ranch land
  • Experienced guides dedicated to maximizing your opportunity
  • Fully guided nilgai hunt (spot-and-stalk and vehicle-based strategies)
  • Field dressing and recovery assistance
  • Flexible lodging options (when selected) near Baffin Bay or Raymondville
  • Opportunity to see high volumes of game


Hunt Packages & Pricing

All packages are priced per person and can be customized to fit your schedule and preferences.


All packages are set as a standard 2-day / 2-night experience for booking purposes, but hunts are flexible and can be adjusted to 1, 2, or 3 days at the same price. Pricing is based on the hunt itself—not the length of stay—allowing you to maximize your time in the field without additional cost.


For lodging-inclusive packages, your stay can be extended based on availability. For hunt-only options, flexibility applies to hunt days only, making it ideal for those arranging their own accommodations.
