Kudu/Bushbuck Hunting Package 2023

What was the average Kudu size taken in 22'?
Measurements are not as important as age to us, but if I have to estimate I would put our average for 2022 at around 50" with the biggest bull of the year measuring 58 1/4.

It certainly seemed like all of our animals were in the winter of their lives. I think to say "past breeding" understated at least a few by a fair margin.
 
One of our free range areas:

That’s beautiful country! How large an area is it? I assume by free range you mean no fence entirely or just a low (cattle) fence?
Its all cattle country. Wouldn't be able to tell you the size, as I've never seen the end, but sure that I can find out for you. Some parts are simply impossible to get to since there are no roads and as you can see there is some rough country. When we hunt these free range areas for certain species such as Kudu, we are required to apply for permits for these specific areas as we are only allowed a limited quota by our local nature conservation board, per block.
Other species that we encounter in these areas are Nyala, Bushbuck, Duiker and Warthog. The odd Waterbuck will move through these areas as well.

Nice! Thanks for the information. Is that specific area in the Eastern Cape?

I just saw Budsgunshop.com has both the guide gun and the African for $1150. FWIW - I bought both and decided to use the Guide gun - I restocked it in a Bell and Carlson stock and I added the Alaska arms floor plate to add a round. I wanted the shorter barrel as I will use a suppressor. I wont go lower than $1100, but I will ship it and no sales tax.

Let me know if you are interested
