Greetings from the Selous with a quick preliminary progress report. Both Bob and I have killed our requisite 4 buff. Today we both bagged our Zebra stallions. Bobs .375 with Swift A-frame 300 grain absolutely killer. The old .318 has given great performance on Kongoni, zebra, and Impala. 450/400 with Woodleigh soft give great performance on Buff, solid whistled on thru. Having great hunt with Steve Robinson (Shakiri) filling in for PVT who is in SA attending to a family medical emergency with our blessings and prayers. Most fun I have had with my clothes on. Message to Mike Powidka(Retreever) We have spotted a 70# + ele twice in the past two days... Please wire lots of money at the earliest as we can't afford it but it keeps popping out to give us a shot. Mike, we got some great shots with Terry holding up your tusks(60+ lbs!) Will give full report when we get back next weekend. Best to all, Lee, Bob, Terry and Shakari.
