We had one heck of a March and with another mt nyala client in the field right now, it's not over yet. Highlights so far are a 32", 37", 38.5" )The guy I was with in the Munessa forest took this the first morning) and the huge Mt. Nyala, seen below with Jason Roussos, which will either be # 2 or # 3 SCI after the 60 day drying period. Add to that a couple of big leopards and a 34" lesser kudu plus other plains game and I'll have to say we had a very busy month of March!


Hope to hell some one knows how to make this image bigger!

Rich,

Imagestation is just not working well since we changed software. Try www.photobucket.com as a host. Or email the pics and I will post them for you.

Regards,

Terry

Rich,

I am not sure exactly why but pictures hosted on Imagestation seems to be very problematic when it comes to posting them here...

I have been told that Imagestation don't like folks linking the pictures to other sites such as AR so added some software which disrupts it in a random manner...

Regards,

Pete

Rich,

I still can't see either picture in the first two posts (although you might be able to). So I copied the picture to my account on Photobucket (that is the picture in my post above).

Anyway, one Hell of a nice animal. Got anymore pictures?

Regards,

Terry

I'll post another of the skull and horns of the 41" shown above plus a good shot of the 38.5" (top 15 animal) tommorrow. I just hit bottom jet lag wise. Think I'll have a drink or two and grill some elk and crash.

Folks:

Don't believe your eyes. The pictures Rich posted are really kudu with a little touch up paint. Big Grin

Dang, what fantastic animals...

You told me you were going to "bring home the bacon". Damn if you didn't!

Rich,

Thanks for sharing. Hunting Ethiopia has long been a dream for me, but I still enjoy the photos and reading the stories of those fortunate hunters who can take this beautiful animal. thumb

Wow! Are you sure that nyala's mom didn't have a thing for strapping young kudu? Cause that's what he looks like!

Congratulations Rich!

I am flabbergasted. Uncredible.

My life won't be the same as long as I don't get his little brother.

Well done!
