Bwanamich,

It would have made a nice double left first then right rotflmo

But honestly would you have shot at them if you were in Selous and they were staring at you 100 yards from camp ?
That is why hunting as a lot of luck involved when bagging big ones. Big Grin

Those are IMPRESSIVE! As I always like to say, I'd shoot one of those on the last day of the hunt for meat. Wink

Those are great old bulls. Very wide and deep curls, especially the daga boy on the right.

Would I shoot him (or his buddy) at 100 yards - oh, yeah!

Wilderness is my cathedral, and hunting is my prayer.
