7,5 inch Mountain Reedbuck.
We just finished with a hunt. This morning we were extremely lucky to have bow hunted a 7,5 inch Mountain Reedbuck that will score in the Top-10 if all goes well.
The hunt was very difficult with the wind that kept swirling and we got busted 3 times before the client got an arrow off and hit this beautiful animal at 41y.

Very nice animal, congrats to you Fritz and your hunter.
The will to succeed isn't nearly as important as the will to prepare to succeed.

He was just crossing a small opening towards me and stopped to look at some small Kudus when I took this first photo. Originally Posted by BRICKBURN

He didn't want to stay around after the second photo
I had turned the blitz off and sadly they became a bit blurred because of the low light.
