The Zebra Rug will become the centerpiece of my new retirement "Man Cave," immediately opposite, my Golden Bear rug... I plan to create a "happy place" with North American mounts on one side of the room and African mounts on the other side, and a big screen TV opposite a couple big leather recliners.

Yeah, good luck with that. I envisioned doing something similar (minus the TV) and it didn't work out quite that way. I came to realize that I can shoot as many "taxidermy-worthy" animals in 10 days of safari as in 10 years of hunting at home. Unless you concentrate solely on the "Tiny Ten" animals, Africa can take over a trophy room very, very quickly.

Some great photos by the way!
 
Your hunt report was a very enjoyable read and I really liked all of the photos you shared (I never take enough). Congratulations on your hunt trip! I liked the look of the terrain where you had your hunt.
 
Great report and looked to be a lot of good times!

Not in this case... the NA side of the room is already taken care of... Africa has some catching up to do...
 
Well Done! Congratulations :D Cheers:

Hendrick and I had made a bet, whether or not, if I shot a Steinbok with my .375 WSM it would "explode." Hendrick said it would, I felt the TSX would zip through so fast that it would not do that much damage (which is why I chose to load the TSX)... since this little antelope ran 30 feet after the shot, we four held a forum and agreed, that if it had "exploded," it could not have run... ergo, I won the bet. Now, as I write this, I am realizing that Hendrick never paid me the $10 we had bet... I guess I will have to go back to collect.

Well... it took a year, but Hendrick made good and paid the $10 bet... unfortunately he paid In NAD not USD... LOL.

great hunt report. i did a similar thing to my feet when i went fishing with gerard, and that little jack russel is a hoot when a shark hits the beach!

khomas is a great place to hunt and phillip is a fantastic host, i can't wait to go back! juan of course is not only a fine guide but a lot of fun to hang out with.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.

Dan who is C. W. Richter? He seems to not be a fan of myself!
