Nice video, good shooting.
 
Good looking animal. Nice job. Bruce
 
Great video!
Thanks for creating and sharing your Waterbuck hunt.

Nice to see another techno geek on AH Herve.

Good shooting, with the rifle to.
 
Thanks for sharing, great shot.
 
Nice Video

Thank you for sharing
 
Painfully long video, lose all that useless gear and get down to business....

Good video quality though.

Dude, you have been watching to much whack and stack video on the hunting channel.
Your idea is a bunch of kill shots with slow mo repeats!?

Do share some of your own Namibia hunt video! I'd like to see your version of a good video.
 
Thank you Brickburn for answering my Report on Msmi27 comment.

The comment "painfully long video" is VERY unplesant considering the amount of hours I have put in creating this video.
Nobody forced this guy to watch it.
This is a HUNTING forum and this is a hunting video, meant to give an insight of the HUNT, not only of the SHOT.
This new member that has sent only 6 messages should be warned that AH is not the place for such unplesasant comments.
Thank you.
 
Great video Herve747 - it really took us along for the hunt. You really look very happy - and you should be too with such a great animal and great shot.

Cheers,

Fantastic video!

I enjoyed every second of it.
 
Nice video. My only complaint? You only shared one, we need more! haha
 
Nice video and super Waterbuck.

Can you share the details of the entry, exit and path of bullet?

What cartridge and bullet was used?

Thanks,


Tim

Hi Tim,

the bullet went in 20 cm back of the right shoulder, went through the right lung, top of the heart, left lung, and exited out from the left leg.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
