Texas Nilgai Hunt

Trip Overview

Experience one of the most challenging and exciting big game hunts in North America with a Nilgai hunt in South Texas through Lesco Outfitters. Nilgai are large, tough, and highly alert animals that demand patience, precision, and solid preparation. Lesco Outfitters offers fully guided Nilgai hunts with the flexibility to hunt during the day or at night using thermal optics, depending on conditions and hunter preference, year round.

The guide typically recommends a two-day minimum hunt to allow enough time to locate and stalk the right animal. Hunt pricing is $330 per day, with Nilgai harvest fees set at $4,000 for a bull and $1,800 for a cow, paid upon harvest. Lodging is available (recommended, but not required) on-site for $303 per person, providing a comfortable and convenient home base between hunts. With expert guidance, flexible hunt options, and access to prime South Texas Nilgai habitat, this is a truly unique big game experience you won’t find anywhere else in the U.S.
