Congrats!

Bump to top. Don't let this post get away without any pics!
I hunt, not to kill, but in order not to have played golf....

bwanamrmI, too, look forward to your hunt report. I have heard of hunting the CAR for a "2 fer" with LDE in the savannah and bongo in the bakos. Not an inexpensive hunt but when you calculate one trip over, time away from home/work, etc. it is not unreasonable for two of the holy grail of spiral horned antelope! Congrats.

Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
