This bull was shot on the last day of my Australian clients hunt Mark Savage he is just perfect in all the ways an old past his his prime bull with worn down ivory tips and tips turning outwards.

It will be tough to beat this one this season for the prefect kudu look maybe not length we will see.

Nice hour glass.
That sets the thoughts roaming.

Thanks. Good pictures.
 
VERY nice! Thanks for sharing.

Nice kudu. Thanks for the pics
 
That fine bull must be pushing 60 inches!
 
Very close. 56"+ ??? What did you measure him at Fred ?
 
Gorgeous!!!
 
I'm going to leave the length out of this one as everyone can see he is big and rather appreciatte the big boy.
John, you know Mark ask him yourself we have a couple more guys coming over to hunt kudu this year so lets see what else we can get. Three years ago when we started to hunt the property we left 99% of the non fully mature bulls and now its starting to pay off.

What I can tell you is that the South African record was shot years ago on the neigbouring property so the genes are there and with some management from our side we hope to get the new record in a few years.
 
Congratulations Frederick... a good game management in the farms produce awesome results as this one... this is an excelent mature full grown bull... who dares how long really it is ??? not me... is a really awesome bull, and a trophy to dream.

Sure this will help your Outfitter company in the future to anchor more and more hunters... well done.

Fredrik, first off, awsome animal. Secondly producing animals of this magnitude might just make you a very busy man. Congrats, he is an great old bull. Scott

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.
