NAMIBIA: BOWHUNT: Bowhunt In Namibia

I passed on a big eland bull while hunting near Otavi with Pieter and someone asked for a picture of him. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, if that's true, then there's no telling how many there are for a three minute video. I'm no expert on Eland, but he looks huge to me, especially when he was at thirty yards. I told Pieter, my house isn't big enough for him. LOL

 
Nice bull Dee! I think i would have squeezed the release.
 
That's a beast of a bull. Blue shoulders with that thick mop of his head. A great mature bull.
 
Eland are some impressive animals and even better eating. I took a eland with tobie engelbrecht. My first African trophy in Namibia back in 06. I will never forget him walking in and sucking the cattle trough dry. someday I will take another if given a chance but one never knows what Africa offers a bow Hunter.
 
I may be wrong, but I Believe that Tobie is Pieters cousin? If so, then their home properties are next to each other. But that bull was several hours north, up on property bordering Etosha.

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?



Tedd
