Spot and Stalk hunting

I spot and stalked this Blesbuck Ram this morning in thick mist and shot him at 26 yards.

He did not go more than 40 yards.

Awesome hunt, Awesome animal, Awesome broad head (Grizz Trick) ...

What more can one ask for?

Oh, and hunted with the 350 Destroyer

Nice Blesbuck Gerhard!

I needed two more seconds to have one of my own this past hunt with you. Oh well. Something to try for next time!

If things go right, Reon and I may have to come for a visit. But, then you buy the first round!!
