My life-size Nyala from the Limpopo ! I should have waited for a bigger one but this is what i shot.
I have seen several giants since this hunt but haven't pulled the trigger again on one !

Congratulations! He's awesome!
 
Looks great!
 
Wow - that looks impressive!
 
Looks great from here!
 
Truly awesome! Never would have even questioned the size.
 
Looks great, thanks for sharing!
 
Gorgeous! You do excellent work Van. I get more comments on the Civet you did for me than any other mount.
Life size, the way a Nyala or Bushbuck should be mounted! :A Thumbs Up:
 
very nice
 
Wow! That's awesome! Well done! Bigger could not be better
 
It looks great! Congrats!
 
Inches mean nothing....great looking trophy...
 
Beautiful mount, something to be proud of!!!!
 
well done.
 
Thanks everyone ! I shot this one because of the shape of the horns. I really like the way they come close together and than spread apart. Totally satisfied with him. I hunted with Victor at Karoo wild Safaris a couple years after this hunt and saw a couple giant Nyala. I was focused on eland at that time and already had this one , so let them walk.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.
