I returned from my first hunt to South Africa and what an incredible experience. The people, the outfitter, the animals, the weather were all unbelievable. I wanted a good challenging hunt and I got it. I worked my butt off and earned everyone of my trophies. I started out planning to take three animals (bush buck, impala and warthog) and then go bird hunting. I didn't get any of them, I only hunted birds for one and a third days. I ended up with kudu, red hartebeest, gemsbok, nyala, springbok, and blesbok. I passed on a mountain reedbuck on my second day and have asked several people to kick me in the butt for it. It was a wonderful trip, far exceeding all expectations.
I wanted to see a Cape cobra and a puff adder, saw two puff adders, no cobra. Oh, well, there is always next time...
