Big Sable from Zambia

[fairgame]

Last year I took a big free ranging Sable out of my Royal Kafue concession in Zambia. It scored very highly and made number 6 of all time. I have been told that it will be exhibited at the shows this year. The second photo is from the taxidermist studio.

When I say I took it I mean my client and good friend S. Rogers. Not sure of the taxidermist and understand it will be at DSC and Houston. That is all the info I have apart from it won some award.

walking someone in on a fine animal like this (specially a good friend )would be as big or even bigger gift as being the hunter


he is a bull of bulls, well done ,congratulations

I know you guided the hunt Andrew.

WOW....fantastic trophy...

Terrific trophy Andrew!

I feel the trophy belongs to you every bit as much as the client. For without you that beautiful animal wouldn't have entered your client's sights or fallen to the shot . . . . it's also a good thing your client shoots well. LOL

Congratulations to you both.

Chaps,

Thanks for the comments. The longest horn was 50 1/2 or 4 feet 2 and half inches. I had never seen this Sable before and he was taken one morning behind camp whilst looking for Puku. We were hardly going to turn him down and he was what we British would describe as a gift horse.

WOW ! Congrats.

[CAustin]

I say some gift horse sir! Congrats to everyone who had anything to do with putting him on the ground.

 

[James.Grage]

[JJ Cale]
