One of our youngest PH's guided his hunter to an amazing trophy of a lifetime the other day. We've been fortunate to tag 4 bulls breaking the 50" mark this season but this bull is over the top. Congrats to Jason and all the guys at Huntershill!

Any Kudu over 50 inches in the East Cape is a great bull. 56 is a true monster! Congrats to all involved. Bruce | |||

Not to take anything away from this magnificent trophy and it is magnificent! But with all the game breeding going on in SA today and the moving around of animals isn't it to be expected that there are some Southern Greater kudu moved around from the limpopo? . | |||

Just a gorgeous bull. Those are some of the prettiest horns I have seen anywhere. There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | |||

That's a great bull, classic shape and the tips turned fully out. Vic Watson (Karoo Wild Safaris) had a 56+ incher taken off his East Cape place back in April also but it was an unusual shape. Those East Cape bulls are starting to get up to Greater Kudu size. Frank "I don't know what there is about buffalo that frightens me so.....He looks like he hates you personally.

JTEX, no doubt that will come of age in due time. I've thought for a long time if you did a dna on the Bontebok, probably half or more in the top 20 would have Blesbok dna in them. I've take 3 Cape Kudu and the best I have to date is a 48.5" bull. Have taken two mature bulls that both went 45 inches. Maybe next one will break 50  Gray Ghost Hunting Safaris http://grayghostsafaris.com Phone: 615-860-4333 Email: hunts@grayghostsafaris.com NRA Benefactor DSC Professional Member SCI Member RMEF Life Member NWTF Guardian Life Sponsor NAHC Life Member Rowland Ward - SCI Scorer Took the wife the Eastern Cape for her first hunt: http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6881000262 Hunting in the Stormberg, Winterberg and Hankey Mountains of the Eastern Cape 2018 http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/4801073142 Hunting the Eastern Cape, RSA May 22nd - June 15th 2007 http://forums.accuratereloadin...=810104007#810104007 16 Days in Zimbabwe: Leopard, plains game, fowl and more: http://forums.accuratereloadin...=212108409#212108409 Natal: Rhino, Croc, Nyala, Bushbuck and more http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6341092311 Recent hunt in the Eastern Cape, August 2010: Pics added http://forums.accuratereloadin...261039941#9261039941 10 days in the Stormberg Mountains http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/7781081322 Back in the Stormberg Mountains with friends: May-June 2017 http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6001078232 "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.

Serious EC kudu, that one! On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died. If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch... Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son! - Rudyard Kipling Life grows grim without senseless indulgence. | |||
