NAMIBIA: Johnnyblues V.S. Mr. Spots Round Two

Good luck with the hunt! Took me two tries to get a leopard - all the sweeter for that!

And if you can, the Hartmaan makes a great rug - much better than plains zebra in my view - the hair is more "velvet-like', thicker and more contrast between white and black. A wonderful trophy and one usually well-earned.

I'm getting envious just writing this . . . can't wait for the report!

Thank you sir, yes hopefully we will have the time to harvest one. A rug is what I would do if I’m lucky.
 
Best of luck to you!! Wallop a beauty - and safe travels!!
 
Good luck buddy. I will be rooting for you. Here's hoping you lower the boom on Mr. Spots!

Thank you buddy. Gonna give it hell!
 
Best of luck! Looking forward to the report sir
 
More than likely I ll have my 300 WSM shooting 180 grain NP with a Trijicon 2.5 x10 x56. Also have my 270 wsm 140 gr accubonds illuminated 3.5x14 x50 scope.
CENTER PUNCH THE RIGHT SPOT JOHNNY.
 
Best of luck to you Johnny! I'll be chasing Mr. Spots with Richard Kok in Moz in June. You should have already put yours in the salt by then buddy!

Fantastic Wes! Great destination. Thank you, hopefully we will have one in the salt. Spoke to my PH today we have multiple baits being hit daily and several sets of large spore. Best of luck to you! Look forward to your report.
 
Ok boys I know I am a bit pre mature but...I have 27 days till I depart for Namibia to give ANOTHER try to harvest a leopard. All indications are good as of today with several males hitting baits and one very large guy. Damara dik dik, steenbok, klipspringer, springbok and possibly Mtn zebra on the hit list.
Best of hunting luck, Johnnyblues.
Mr Spots awaits you...

Thanks Bruce, indications are good as of today. Hopefully we can keep a few good males around. 15 days and counting!

Guessing your dreams are filled with every scenario possible, you'll connect this round.

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.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
