    Been a fantastic start to the 2018 season with an early season elephant bull, my client took a fantastic 85 pound elephant in the south of Zimbabwe, a hard hunt with over 200km on foot. We were also fortunate to take 2 solid dagga boys after some pretty hard hunting in the thick stuff.

    Nice elephant! I really like the old daggaboy with the worn horn tips.

    That is an amazing bull elephant. 85 pounders are not standing behind every tree anymore.
