Holy Crap, Thats my guess, that's one you would have to change your short on after seeing (pause for effect). And if you got the shot you'd be changing them for the same reason.
 
Yea it is a nice picture except it ain't a kudu. I is an American antelope with Kudu horns. Look at the ears, way too little and the nose vee is under the eyes not further down.

You could be right. It could be photoshop or something like that. I am not sure about the ears, a big animal have smaller ears meashered towards overall headsize, than a smaller one. The chevron markings can be just below the eyes on kudu, take a look at this photo:

I would be interested in it if you pass. Please send me the info on the gun shop if you do not buy it. I have the needed ammo and brass.
Thanks,
Ross
