That is weird about MacGregor. Wonder if it has changed that much since I was there. When I got my 36.5" cow in 2009 I saw at least 15 nice size (30"+) oryx during my 1.5 days hunting. I did a little research on-line and did a couple of hours of scouting on the Friday after registration. Hardly saw any other hunters and saw plenty of action.
