Is my trophy big enough?

Congratulations on what sounds like a grand Africa hunt!
So, when are you going back?;) I'm sure you're now addicted to Africa!
 
Now that's a great Kudu! Congratulation's. I ve already take one but sure as hell I d shoot another one if he was that big.
 
Congrats sir, damn nice kudu!!

Me too! Makes my 50" seem rather puny!
 
A very impressive kudu sir. I hope you will give us the story of how you hunted this beast.
 
While not the largest Kudu to grace the pages of AH he certainly is impressive. You could hunt Kudu for the rest of your life and not see anything bigger. The vast majority of us probably 99.9% would be proud to have him hanging on our wall. Congratulations are certainly in order.
 
Very nice trophy!
 
Snorter of a bull! Congrats
 
I am really proud of all the trophies I took on this trip regardless of size I was just curious of out the kudu ..... And if you haven't hunted them yet , duikers are the anti-Christ , I'm sure of it !
@Royal27 will second that!
 
Congratulations on your trip & trophy. Based on your measurements... yes I’m
Sure it will score “something”. However, my 2 cents.... forget that shit. The hunt, the memory, experience, etc... is way more valuable that being listed & lost in the annals of some cheesy ass book.
Sorry to be blunt. You have a great trophy!
BWH .... that is a play out of my play book.... I think we would have a lot less problems if we didn't get trophies for the game we hunt.
 
Amazing bull, for sure!

Thanks for sharing him with us.

Great Kudu, what else did to hunt while you where in SA?

Don't let others opinions stop you from entering a great animal in the record books, that is your decision. I entered my kudu that's in my avatar in SCI and in no way did it diminish the memories or experience. My long passed relatives have two public land bull elk listed in B&C that were over the counter licences and I look them up occasionally and am glad they listed them for us future generations as part of our legacy!
 
Looks like a great hunt
 
Congrats on a successful "First" Safari.

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?
