Day 3 Continued...
When we got back for lunch, we learned that Bob and our Dad were successful that morning as well. Dad got himself a nice black wildebeest, and Bob took down a nice gemsbuck as well. I'm not sure on the distances of those two, but what counts is they got their animals back...
Day 3
After a long drive down to the Free State the day before, we awoke ready to hunt! After a quick breakfast at the lodge, we were off to the hunting grounds.
Sighting everything in took a few minutes, but there weren't many adjustments that needed to be made and we were dialed in to...
A few months ago, my brother posted a thread stating that we'd be returning to South Africa to hunt, and said we'd have a good write up on AH upon our return. Well, it's taken a bit longer than it probably should, but we're finally getting to it. We have looked at the hundreds of pictures we've...

As of right now, the trophies are sitting in Long Beach awaiting Customs to give the final clearance. Already passed through US Fish and Wildlife. Hoping to have mounts on the wall in a few days. Once we get everything back, I'll start a thread with pictures of everything we got back.

Wow, haven't been on here in a while I guess. Regarding being rude to the locals, my only reasoning for saying that was because that was what we were instructed to do by the rifle importer as we were being swarmed with people. I wouldn't normally be one to just go off on someone like that, and I...
Here's the 44.5" sable that my dad took last June. I wasn't with him when he took it, my brother was, but from what I hear he wasn't sure how big he was until he came completely out from the brush he was behind and everyone went "HOLY SH*T!"
Thanks enysee! The waterbuck came in ay 28.5", and while I didn't measure the old impala there, he would have had another inch or two on him back in his prime. The tips were work down pretty bad, and the PH's said that with his teeth worn down as far as they were, he likely wouldn't have lasted...
