My Mini-Me

I won't refer to my daughter as a Mini-Me in anything other than general terms because I think she's rather attractive and I'm big and ugly. But these are from the first Africa hunt I took her on. It was a plains game hunt on the Eastern Cape. She later hunted Zim with me and among other species she's whacked two leopards there.

Big 5,
Please take not offense, actually a compliment.... I think it is down right gorgeous to see pics like that. She is beautiful & I am sure you are proud to have her as a daughter & shared moments like those!
 
BWH,
Certainly no offense is taken! She has camped, fished and accompanied me hunting on many occasions since she was a small child. She is an excellent shot and capable of tack driving clover leaf groups at 100 yards all day long.

I included a photo of her with the Kudu because that is her favorite trophy above all others. The outfitter guide became frustrated and attempted to discouraged her day after day determination to hunt Kudu. It finally became necessary for me to politely confront him and have him bite his lip. She worked very hard over many days and her determination not only paid off, it clearly surprised and somewhat embarrassed the outfitter guide.

Good hunting to you!
 
I have a little girl too.... When she's with dad, it's fishing poles & bb guns. (y) When she's with mom, it's all shopping & credit cards! :cry:

Ok I can't call them mini-me's but they sure do like to hunt with me. The oldest will be going with my son and I to New Zealand soon, the youngest had a baby a few weeks ago and won't be making the trip. Talk about poor planning! I'm just kidding, I'm thrilled to have another member of the family and potentially another young person to introduce to shooting and hunting.

Good morning,
Did you hunt w Leeuwkop at their ranch or in Zimbabwe? The ranch looks awesome, but I'll be in Zimbabwe for buffalo and whatever else we dig up.
What did you hunt for?
Vaccines?
What rifle did you use?
I feel like I need a good cotton safari shirt and an ammo belt to make the hunt feel right!
How often did you shoot prior to going?
Did you use sticks for shooting practice?
