Hunting with Trevor and shot this bull on the second day. Excellent free range area. We saw at least a dozen nice bulls before this one. If you are looking for a great free range Nyala and have the time, Trevor still has two more available this year. We're off for Waterbuck and Black Wildebeest tomorrow. Great trip so far!

Trevor always takes some monsters every year, congrats!
 
Very nice trophy Nyala.
 
Congrats!

If I do shoot a Nyala, it will Def be a free range bull.
 
I would kike to see the animals I shoot stand up when they are dead. Makes for a better photo.:)
Or did you mean you shot it with a camera??:)
Really that is a very nice animal
 
Thanks for sharing, look forward to more!
 
Looks great.

All the best with the rest of the hunt.
 
He's known for his free range Nyala. Takes some absolute monsters

Sorry. That picture is of one we passed. Click the other tile for a picture of the one we took.
 
Here's a Bushbuck we passed and a Waterbuck and Hartebeest that we took. Amazing hunt so far. We've seen a wide variety of game in a lot of different terrain. We could not be more pleased. Our planning all began with a thread on this forum. Thank you guys for not keeping people like Trevor a secret.

Your Nyala looks beautiful. The one you pictured at the beginning is VERY dark. More so than any I have seen. That Bushbuck pic is very nice. Thanks for sharing. Looks like Trevor is getting it done for you. Congrats and well done. Bruce
 
Man you are getting some great trophies!!! That waterbuck is a boss!
 
The one you took is much bigger than the top one. Nice trophies!
 
Great looking animals! Congrats!
 
Nice pics!!! What a waterbuck. Congrats!!!
 
Great animals! thanks for posting. Interested to see if you find a bushbuck big enough. How long did your PH estimate that one was that you guys passed on?

We thought he was maybe 14.5 but young. We took a 13.5 two years back so I figured we could be selective. And no we did not find a bigger one darn it. Maybe next time. Trevor made up for it by finding the Hartebeest. He is 28+ raw. Never thought I wanted one until I saw this one.
 
Congrats, very good animals !

Hi EGS

I read your thread with interest. Would you mind sending me that PDF? May I put it on my website?
