This is Passport to Texas Have you ever dreamed of hunting the kind of game only found on other continents? Then Big Time Texas Hunts Exotic Safari may be for you. Janis Johnson. 16—The winner of the Exotic Safari Package gets to hunt two animals, he gets to choose between a gemsbok, a scimitar- horned oryx, an axis deer or new this year a common waterbuck. So that’s kinda cool, you get to bring a hunting companion along and he or she also gets to harvest an animal. Johnson oversees marketing for BTTH. The safari takes place at Mason Mountain Wildlife Management Area. 17—What’s new this year, the winner will also take home a Ruger American rifle, and that’s a 300-win mag. We’re also including a Vortex Diamondback scope. So this is going to be an awesome hunt for the winner. It’s a real premium hunt, and the addition of the Ruger rifle and scope makes it even more special. Those items courtesy of McBrides Guns of Austin.
