Monster Croc drop shot!

 

[Mort Hill]

Great shot on that wily lizard!

Where do you place a quartering away shot on a crock? Just curious. That looks like a big one, how long was it, any idea how much it weighed?

 

[Ridgewalker]

Nice! I really enjoyed the only croc hunt I’ve been on! Would do it again!

That sure looked like the bullet hit the water, probably just my eyes.

Nope, not your eyes, it was a bank shot, off the water.

Great shot on that wily lizard!

Cheers Mort!

You just need to imagine the golf ball sized brain and where it would be located at a different angle! Hard to explain in words but sometimes you don't always get the angle you want. We didn't get a weight on him but he was 13.5ft with a portion of his tail missing!!

Never noticed that before? Could easily be!

Never noticed it before! Very possible!

They are fantastic animals to target! We enjoy it thouroughly!

Bearbait1, I agree with you. It looks like the bullet hit the water first. However, another possibility is that a "chunk" flew off the crock and hit the water. The reason I'm speculating this is the "splash" is too far forward of where I thought the crock's brain would be. But then I've never shot a crock, just looked at pictures.
