Worried about picking the wrong target

[Royal27]

This thread seems to have taken a turn... Who brought up this dumb Kimpala anyway?! ...oh wait...

I'm voting for this as thread of the week.

Who said that the EA impala have the biggest horns?

 

[Wheels]

I don't mean to be difficult, but I will be anyway. . . .

There are no spirals in the pictures . . . not even Rookhawk (with or without photoshop) can make impala a spiral horned antelope!

You guys wouldn't know the difference between a kimpala and an impkudu if it smacked you in the face!

And you should, because they are highly aggressive and you have to keep your wits about you.

And that sir, is what a double rifle is for!

 

[sestoppelman]

Yup! But which hill did the bullet come from?

You mean which "knoll"?

Everyone.

Shoot it with a Photoshopped Gun & pay him with Photoshopped Money.

Forgive me for this one.

Reminds me of the guy who got a speeding ticket. Cops told him to mail in the money. He took a picture of some money and mailed that in instead. Cops took a picture of a set of handcuffs and mailed it back. Next time the guy sent real money!

 

[rookhawk]

Reminds me of all the world record reedbok I've killed only to realize I've been killing yearling waterbucks by the truckload?

Kidding!

I thought I was . . . now I don't know what to believe.

But I know one thing for sure. I want to book an ostrimpala safari.

All I know is that my PH had damn well better be able to tell if it is photoshopped or not.

If I shoot a photoshopped animal and he tries to charge me full trophy fee I'm gonna be pissed!

Beans said he was cutting hella deals on photoshopped animals in a couple weeks!

Kimpala:

ImpKudu:

The Difference is slight but marked with an arrow. ImpKudu actually grow a spot on their hind quarters for every Lion they've killed. much like a gunfighter notching his grips. This individual is said to have taken down at least 7... four spots are visible on the starboard side of the rump (only use nautical terms when referring to ImpKudu... It is an unwritten rule apparently... )It is hard to spot from distance sometimes. But as you say, you should never tangle with an impkudu. They have the spring of an impala and hide as tough as kevlar, with the obvious weaponry to mess you up if they get within 80 yards. They can cover that distance in just over a second so... as royal puts it... use a double rifle. Preferably something .500 NE or bigger with solids.

And no.... None of this was just made up as I sat here on my computer... It is totally factual.. I read it on them internets.

Will ImpKudu come to a bait? What do you use for bait? Pretty sure you can't use Puss & Boots. Hanging from a branch or anchored to the ground?

Does anyone make a .50 BMG Double? Preferably Stainless (or Chrome Plated) with a Plastic Stock & Fore End?

 

[ChrisG]

These are the buggers you really gotta watch out for:

But thats a totally different subject... Dang Cape Bushalo

They are pretty wary... but if you kill a lion and use it for bait... You may get one to come in.

Butch Searcy would probably make you a .50 BMG double... But it would have 35" barrels and weigh about 60 pounds with double side-vented muzzlebrakes.. But it would be fantastic on ImpKudu. I'm a traditionalist though so I would probably use a 4lber field gun like this:

 

[Clayton]

Definitely need a double for the Bushalo. You hope the first shot will scare the horns off of it and then kill it with the second.

And being a "traditionalist" you probably don't want the 4 lber in a fully automatic belt fed gun. I'm guessing maybe even a muzzle-loader?

And I am pretty sure this could get you killed on some other forums... Be carefulll.... They might be watching.

I would use the weapon in my profile pick.... but precision is something of a problem.

I see I'm not the only one with nothing to do this morning.

Congrats. You cleared the room with your comment like a turd in the punchbowl!

Honestly though guys, no photoshop, this is actual video footage of pound for pound the most fierce creature I've ever seen. I wouldn't screw with this guy: (commentator language hilarious yet not suitable for work)
