Some nice trophies Lin!

Congrats to the hunters! I had a great time hunting with you earlier this year.
 
These two photos make me envious.

Congratulations to all your hunters and PH's
 
I shot the tuskless and buff cow that is shown in these pics. I had the pleasure to hunt with chap and Pierre and meet lindon in the camp in chewore south. the group that hunted with including myself had an awesome time with some top professional hunters! They delivered big time and all 4 of us went home with a once in a lifetime experience and the trophies we wanted. I have no doubt that I will be hunting with mbalabala safaris next time I am going to africa!
 
a great time had by all
 
Nice trophies! Love that civet cat!
 
Thanks @reedy0312 , I missed the report while I was away. Just read it and sorry you did not get your leopard but a good safari and many memories.
 
Very nice cats and buff. Congrats to all the hunters.
 
You sound, and look, like you run a great outfit!

What is this creature? It looks like a super-duper raccoon

Flip - that is a serious Leopard taken at Mbalabala (second last).

And how did you get that first hyena to give the camera 'the eye'? Very well posed trophy.

Hoping you have a spare tuskless end of year:)
 
Great trophies! Well done to you and your staff Lin!
