Grainy photo, but this is an old bushbuck and definitely a top trophy.
Minimum 15 inches, with 16 probably being the closest guess. The mass he carriers quite high up and it seems he still has quite a lot of tip left which could push him as high as 17 inches.
If that is the tip of the horn I see in the picture he maybe pushing just over 16 on that one side. He is heavy at the bases but that tip looks pointed and not worn off yet so maybe at his prime and over that 16" mark. All depends on hard the spiral is also and just cant see that in that picture.
I know I would like to shot it and see how big his is.
I realize how hard the bug has bit. I’m on the cusp of safari #2 and I’m looking to plan #3 with my 11 year old a year from now while looking at my work schedule for overtime and computing the math of how many shifts are needed….
I'm about ready to pull the trigger on another rifle but would love to see your rifle first, any way you could forward a pic or two?
Thanks,
