I like the one on the left.Someone took one like that a few years back in the Zambezi Valley.It went 45 inches.It was taken with R.Tabor.The one pictured above looks a little larger. | |||

Both beautiful bulls. While the one on the left appears to be the better one, I've always wanted one with really deep drops, so I'd shoot that one first and try to pick off the other one if I could. That's why I hunt Tanzania -- 3 on license. | |||

Cal, isn't a scenario like this one a good reason for carrying a .600 double? | |||

Whichever one turns and so presents a good broadside shot first!

Lack of skills – by practice. Lack of experience – by time doing it. One cannot cure: Stupidity – nothing helps! Anti hunting sentiments – nothing helps! Put-‘n-Take Outfitters – money rules! My very long ago ancestors needed and loved to eat meat. Today I still hunt! | |||

#2 is in poorer body condition than the one on the left so to fill the freezer I would be taking fat #1. Oh the head, well exaggerated droopy horns have a feminine look to me for some reason so again #1. | |||

Left one for me. Go Duke!! | |||

| One of Us |
Seems like the natives get the meat down there. So filling a freezer is out of the question on these two. Fine bulls, both! George "Gun Control is NOT about Guns' "It's about Control!!" Join the NRA today!" LM: NRA, DAV, George L. Dwight | |||

Both. Shoot whichever offers the better shot first. | |||

The one my PH told me to shoot | |||
|
| One of Us |
The one on the right with out question. I love those deep drops. | |||
|
| One of Us |
Right. Really like those drops and the big grey patches on the cheeks If you think every possible niche has been filled already, thank a wildcatter! | |||

The one on the right, but not an easy choice DRSS Searcy 470 NE | |||
|
| One of Us |
Which ever one the PH said to shoot. But if it was left up to me the left for sure! A very hard decision at that! | |||
|
| One of Us |
One on the right. Been looking for him for a while now. | |||
|
| One of Us |
Me too. And I would swear I had two tags!!! | |||

The one on the right for sure. He looks pretty thin, maybe not long before the lions take him out. I would save him some suffering. Both beautiful bulls. | |||
|
One of Us |
Any of us would be fortunate to take either bull. Though very different, each is an incredible, old bull. | |||
|

Between these two, the right bull is the right one for me. ------------------------------- Some Pictures from Namibia Some Pictures from Zimbabwe An Elephant Story | |||

Like the old Sarge sang, "Left, Right". BH63 Hunting buff is better than sex! | |||
|
| One of Us |
I would bet $$$ these are from a northern Tanz or Kenyan Park | |||
|
one of us |
No question! The one on the right. He has a beautiful boss, and well balanced drops, and IMO he is older than the one on the left. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,NOW! like everyone else here I would take both if allowed, to hell with the cost! It will still be cheaper that a second safari to find the other one! .............GOOD BULLS BOTH!   ....Mac >>>===(x)===> MacD37, ...and DUGABOY1 DRSS Charter member "If I die today, I've had a life well spent, for I've been to see the Elephant, and smelled the smoke of Africa!"~ME 1982 Hands of Old Elmer Keith  | |||

I'd kind of prefer the one on the left, but I feel obligated to take the one on the right. Hopefully I could take both. Caleb | |||

I would shoot the one on the right with no hesitation. Bob It's better to shoot for the moon and hit the fencepost than to shoot for the fencepost and hit the ground! | |||
