Trophy hunting for Cape Grysbok is perfect for the hunter who wants to shoot a unique and rare wild species. Trophy Cape Grysbok are found in the Eastern and Western Cape areas of South Africa. Although they are fairly common in parts of South Africa, this animal isn’t easily seen when you are hunting Cape grysbok in Africa. The grysbok is primarily nocturnal and relies on an acute sense of smell, hearing, and touch to navigate the dense bush that it inhabits. Spotlight Cape Grysbok hunting at night is the most popular method, but can also be achieved by walking and stalking where spoor have been spotted. Early sunrise or dusk are the best time to go when hunting Cape Grysbok in South Africa due to their nocturnal habits.

The Cape Grysbok is a small, shy antelope with a thick-set body and a coarse coat of hair. A mingling of white and reddish hair on the back and sides gives this species a grizzled, reddish appearance. Only males have horns with a slight forward curve, standing vertical on the head. The Cape Grysbok weighs up to 20 pounds and stands 21 inches at the shoulder.
The Cape Grysbok inhabits thick shrubland. It can sometimes be found browsing orchards and vineyards. In the Cape Peninsula the grysbok can be found in urban edges close to human activity.
Shot placement is similar to other antelope plains game species. A small caliber or a shotgun, specifically not to ruin the skin, is suitable and efficient for hunting Cape grysbok in Africa.
