.....................
A question for everybody. What is your estimate of this bull’s length?

Wheels, my first thought was BANG!, Then we'll measure him out at 58 +.

That warthog would not be making it far either. 13+ for sure.

Donate another bullet on that Impala. He looks tasty to.


Great report.
 
^^^^No way would I pass that guy up!
 
Hope I can come across animals as good as this in Namibia in june .
And have as much fun as you did !
 
Brick, you on such a roll, pick up the shotgun and grab a few guinea fowls while you busy...
 
Brickburn,

Agree. Thanks for the estimate. He almost looks as good as yours.

That warthog would not be making it far either. 13+ for sure.

Ditto.

Great report.

Appreciate it.

I wouldn't either. If I had been setting at the waterhole the photo taken wouldn't have been of him standing.

Africa. Too many choices.:)
 
WHEELS ! Thank you for a wonderful read and report. And some of the pics I've seen . Your quite the photographer and I really enjoyed your hunt and thanks again for taking us thru it with you ! Great Trophies !
 
Bob, somehow managed to miss your post until today :A Bang Head:.

Congrats for a great hunt, it sure sounds like you enjoyed it, that Eland will have to wait for the next hunt. It took me five hunts to take mine !
 
looked like you had a wonderful hunt and I read you saying you were looking for eland did you have any joy?

Nyati,

Easy to understand. Go out of town or get swamped with work for 2-3 days and a report can get buried.

Had a great time. It is always good to have animals that keep drawing us back for another hunt.;)

Thanks.

Masuza,

Thanks. I had a lot of joy.....no eland, but a lot of joy!:)
 
Hah. Damn Eland! Gerrit and I have hunted them too. The owner of one ranch, "Elandsfontein" by name as I recall, said they were much harder to hunt than Elephant. Now, having been to Zimbabwe a few times since then, I think I agree. Gerrit and I saw a big bull that morning which just disappeared! How can an animal that size do that? My day will come.
 
Awesome Report Wheels! and thanks for all the awesome pictures. is that bull going to be a shoulder or pedestal mount no way I'd let him walk.

Appreciate it Bob.

If I had the chance to pull the trigger on him, he would certainly be something. I wouldn't let him walk either.:)
