Shoot Or Pass?

[KMG Hunting Safaris]

My head PH, Nick took this photo while out hunting. Photo is a little bit blurry. Shoot or pass on this Common Duiker?

Is that the one that was bedded in the bushes and sneezed while we were waiting on the eland?

Shoot. Horns look to be longer than the ears.

I know little about Duiker except seeing them fairly often here and there. However, based on what I see written about them when discussing trophy qualities in 1/8 inch increments and judging against ear length and assuming those are horns showing and not twigs…. Shooooot!

Those are not twigs....

I’d push you out of the way to shoot.

 

[ActionBob]

Wow, definitely shoot!

 

[Tokoloshe Safaris]

I would say shoot unless there is something that we do not know about.

 

[Boyd Brooks]

Looks like a monster! I’m taking him home to the salt.

I'd shoot him even if he wasn't on the list lol

This is why you bring extra money.

SHOOT!

 

[Red Leg]

From the rear is a funny angle, but he looks at least a half-inch taller than the one across the way in the trophy room. I wouldn't hesitate.

From what I can see on pic I would smoke him up. Res. not great as you mentioned but looks like a very nice ram.
My best.

 

[Flewis]

Looks great but age is what I want. Just me.

 

[gillettehunter]

Looks like a shooter to me.

Marius... your the one to blame for my tiny ten passion and it all started with a a dandy duiker. Angles can be deceiving but the duiker in the photo looks to be much larger than the one I took with you nearly ten years ago. It appears to be time to shoot first and measure later.

SHOOOOT!!!!. I had the same opportunity in the Eastern Cape in 2019. I declined it and my backside is still sore from the daily ass kicking I self administer.

 

[Nyati]

Shoot !

 

[Dudders]

Shoot. Straight in the back of the head.
