NAMIBIA: Off To Namibia

171.6 pounds seven feet four inches long from nose to tip of his tail. PH thinks he will rank very high all time for leopards taken in Namibia.

Congrats! A last day beast of a leopard!
 
Hell of a Leopard Charlie.
That animal on your shoulders is truly telling of his size.

Glad that sinking feeling disappeared with the help of a good dog.

Congratulations.
 
Congratulations Charlie!!! Heck of a cat! You did yourself proud after all the time since you first started planning a leopard hunt. Whopper;)
 
That is so awesome. I can just imagine how scary it must have been, Pieter has a way of keeping things calm.

I have a picture that shows how big his head is in relation to your fist, would you mind if I posted it?

Thanks so much for posting , you had the whole forum cheering for you from all over the world!

Congratulations Charlie- glad to finally see you got it done!! Be very proud as those of us who have been blessed to have got a leopard are very fortunate (I know of so many that have come up short and empty handed)- leopard hunting isn’t called a chess game for nothing [emoji1305][emoji1319]

Exactly a Chess Game and Pieter Delport played it like a Grand Master.
 
Congratulations Charlie. No small feat. I hunted with Pieter in 2018. He is the consummate Professional by any standard. The real deal.
Matt Vejar
I totally agree Matt. Pieter is all hunting. A great deal of knowledge as a big five PH. He has hunted with many many European clients and now his Canadian and US recognition is catching on. I was blessed to have put in contact with him by a good friend.
 
An absolute gorgeous monster of a leopard!!! Congratulations Charlie !!! THAT was worth the suspenseful wait! Thank you for sharing this adventure!
Your welcome Andrew. More pictures to come!

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?
