Congrats on the fine animals. That impala looks awsome.

I realy like the bird photos too. I cant wait, 51 days!!!
 
Gerhard, You got two great trophies there... It seems that you are as good with the camera as with your bow! I always enjoy your pictures :thumb:. BTW looks like you were trying to start a fire under that Impala's chin, haha! ;)

Ha Ha Ha,

We had to make sure we got the pose for the photos correct. lol

The little Panasonic DMC-TZ11 camera did a great job.

My next challenge is that big kudu in September and to get it all on video....
 
Goeie werk Boet !

Very nice animals congrats you can be very proud of both animals I'm jealous so that will say a lot as you know me well. :D

You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
