Nice Boar I think I need a 300HH
 
Nice porker!
 
Short, stubby ones, but I didn’t go fishing around for a proper look as he was too rank and diseased, blind in at least one eye, ears ripped.

Yeah fair enough, are any of them up that way edible?
 
Rough old warrior and plenty battle scars. Interesting trophy.
 
I like the .300 H&H. I should have hung onto mine.
 
He is black as can be isn't he. Congrats
Bruce
 
Congrats sir!
 
Very nice, congrats!
 
Nice pick-up Ben.

Early Dry season boars are usually hard to come by.

Is that a burn in the backround ?
If so I found that they come around fresh burns to forage for whatever may be found on the surface, insects, lizards etc.

Well done, nice looking rifle too.
 
Dry nice. Good hunting.[emoji4]

Cheers, Paul! Learn something new everyday! Makes sense, as he appeared almost completely blind. The burn was indeed pretty fresh, from last weekend.
 
Interestingly we believe we’ve been just behind catching this guy out several times over the last year. We couldn’t even get him on baits last year or yesterday, but the burn at dawn caught him out.
 
What rifle and caliber, Ben?
 
Sorry saw the 300

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?
