craig boddingtonRich, congratulations not only to Mr. McNatt, but also to the Roussos clan and their staff! I personally thought Marc Watts' huge mountain nyala of a couple years ago should have won the Caldesi Award, but for better or worse, right or wrong, really big sheep seem to trump almost anything else. This is a very well-deserved and well-chosen award, not just the best trophy taken in the world last year, but in quite a few years! You guys are taking mountain nyala that would have seemed totally impossible a couple of decades ago. Well done! All best, Craig

Rich ElliottThanks for the kind words, Craig.
I pretty sure this is the first African Trophy to win the Caldesi Award.
