The humbling wildebeest.
You think they'll be easy right up until you get within 500 yards. Then they dance away. Again and again....

They are a really interesting animal and a challenge to stalk. I took my first (and a pretty good one) in the Limpopo in July.
 
This is one animal where a longer horn often doesn’t make a better trophy.

Grand old trophy hunted by a client. I like the cracked bosses and horns opening wide at the top.

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
