Ulrik's rhino






I will let him tell the story. But just as a teaser, I understand that the Rhino weighed 3 tons and was shot with a GS Custom flat nosed solid bullet. (from www.gscustom.co.za)

"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. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

Wow. No wonder he's smiling ear to ear in those pictures.

Use Enough Gun
I shot a bull very similar to that one last August in Kwa-Zulu-Natal. I would like to hear the story on this one for sure. Mine was 27" on the front horn with a 33" base. This one looks that big too. We will be waiting to hear the story.

Beautiful animal, only thing that stops me from getting one is the BIG trophy fee.

I think that's the first white rhino we have seen hunted here on AR.

Congratulations to Ulric.

Use Enough Gun
RBHunt: With the new regulations going into effect on June 1, they will only get more expensive. Glad that I hunted mine when I did. I enjoyed the hunt, with two great PH's, Ally Robins and Brad Rolston. Well done, Ulrik. Here's mine again:
