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.

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
