Hi Sniper

Well done, very nice hunt and pictures. I believe there have been some quite nice/good rains recently in that regional area and looking at the bush it bears that out.

I take it you were hunting or lodged VERY NEAR to my brother Alan Bird's Balla-Balla Safaris lodge/ranch which we are now very close to handing over to the Government to meet their (land restitution claims)... WE are in the final stages of (hunting out our animals) before vacating the ranch and passing it onto the new owners/land claimants.

All the best to yourself and Tino whom we know well

Cheers, Peter

That is kudu hunting for you after days of playing primate to get to them you shoot and then the real work starts getting the kudu out off there. THAT IS KUDU HUNTING FOR YOU AT ITS BEST. Any kudu over 48" hunted properly is something to brage about because it doesn't happen everyday the females and young bulls are easier to hunt but those big ones is very sly. im trying now 4years to get a 50"bull and they are still eluding me if you dont have a gun they stand at 25m and with a gun you dont see them. so if they cross your path and they are not on your list still take it because a good kudu bull only gives you one chance you might wait years to get the same opportunity.

well done and that bushbuck has real caracter an old warior so enjoy those trophies they are great
