Very big Black impala on one of our hunting areas what do you guys think he will measure?

Cool animal. I never killed any of the unusual color phase plains game animals but black impala and golden wildebeest are beautiful creatures for sure.

I am not good at guessing horn length but he looks like a giant impala.
 
Black Impala are cool, look very much like Dark Fallow Deer.

Around 24-25in can’t see how much he curves back.
 
The PH on my first safari in Zimbabwe put me onto one a little bigger....and I whiffed the shot!
That one is a don't hesitate, just shoot size.
 
He is nice and wide
But looks pretty flat(doesnt curve back much)
Will make a nice trophy
 
He is old and wide and a nice throphy but he is 2 inches short of RW....
 
Would really like to see him from the side so we could see how far he goes back and then how his tips come back forward.

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)?

You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.
