    Thank you Paul!

    There are guys who put the whole thing on a trailer and I have seen a picture of one that they picked up in a TLB I just don’t want to move the animal around too much before we have the skin off, scared it will get damaged.

    When we manage to get an Elk close to a farm we are very thankful for that type of help Jerome.

    What an awesome thread!

    I wish I'd found this before I went on my first Safari, but maybe it's even better now since I'm sure that I appreciate it more.

    I have sure had a lot of those "non-hunting" types question my choosing to shoot a Giraffe... I don't even know where to start tellin' people like that why, so I really don't even try. I mean, "if ya have to ask..."

    I have enjoyed having taken mine so much that I want to do it again, and I don't even have my flatskin home yet. If I find one that appeals to me, which many in the photos in this thread have, I will gladly take another one.

    Just want to share pics of a bull I saw in Zim twice, last year and 2 weeks ago. Very interesting bull, look at his head...



    Also hunted one few years ago in RSA, mature bull, not as dark as others, but nice anyway...
