Hi Guys

I'm back after a very long time. I ventured to Limpopo to hunt in the begining of April but unfortunately I did'nt shoot much due to the heavy rainfall. However , my brother did harvest this magnificant blue wildebeest bull. He kindly asked to post it here to see what you guys have to say about it.

Cheers
Dox
 
Picture would be nice??
 
Sorry to hear about the rain wash out on the trip.
It is sure tough to get around when you are thinking of building a big boat.

Do post the picture of this monster when you get a chance.
 
Its taking me a little long for the picture to upload for some reason but I should get it on some time soon>
 
Here it is. I would like you guyz to estimate the horn length.

Pretty hard to say from the angle provided. Doesnt really look like a "monsta" though. Again tough with the angle. Sorry the hunt didnt go as planned, they dont always.
 
Judging from the left horn he is an older animal and really liked to rub that left one down.

As Scott says, it is hard to tell just how big he is from this photo angle.
 
Hard to tell the size, however, a very nice trophy !
 
Let me put you out of your misery. It is 28 1/4 just short of rowland ward.

When you get the skull on a table to measure it properly, stretch that tape a bit.

Very nice trophy
 
regardless what it scored, it is a beautiful animal.

Jerome, do you think my last post in rough camping must maybe shift as an article?

Good afternoon,

I'm trying to get in contact with Mr Butch Searcy. I have the opportunity to buy one of his rifles chambered in 577 nitro Express however the seller does not have any of the paperwork with the information about what ammunition or bullet weight was used to regulate it. I know he is not making firearms anymore but I wanted to reach out after seeing one of your post about him.

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl
