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......

thornellGreat cat David. I know you and dad will remember that hunt forever, just wish I could have been there! I look forward to seeing some more of your photos.
16 July 2008, 06:41
L. David KeithI would have posted a hunt report today, but I'm having problems getting the pics in the right program. They downloaded to my media player but won't cooperate getting into my doc files. I'll sort it out when I get time. Mark should have some great pics, as he took some very nice trophies. It's been hit or miss and mostly miss on the good pics. I have some of Elephant that are classic. Will try ASAP to sort it out.
David

bwanamrmNice tom...
On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

L. David KeithThanks guys. Mine has a 16" skull. Unfortunately, he has about 12" of his tail missing so he only measured 6'5" in length. He is very stocky and reminds me of a Jaguar. I'm not complaining at all, he is a beauty. Mark's Tom has a 17" skull and measures 7'5" in length. Both will make great lifesize mounts.
