Congrats on a couple of beautiful trophies!
Well done!
I'm a rifle hunter, but would really try the bowhunting sometime.. Smiler
Have thought of buying proper equipment, and practising before my next safari. Then maybe doing rifle and bow 50-50.

Congrats on some fine animals Gerhard. That Wildebeest is a toad! Thanks for posting those bird pics, I always enjoy seeing the winged fowl.
Good hunting,
David

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."
