Same here.
I'm guessing he's got a few in the salt already, probably Popeye the monster leopard the lucky son of a gun.
Thought about checking with Alistair but I guess I'll let Will fill us in himself.
I'm sure it's going to be one helluva report (AGAIN).

PSmithYep, that new trophy room will probably need an annex.

smarterthanuHell I don't blame will for not posting. Who wants to come here when you are having that much fun?
20 July 2011, 17:48
Larry SellersSmarther - My thoughts exactly. I go to Africa to get away from the everyday grind and electronic interference in my life. I don't think about cell phones, satellite phones, laptops, etc. while away on Safari. Can do all that everyday here in New Mexico if I choose.

PeglegI've gotten word that Will has a toad of a Leopard in the salt. He sure is doing well. I hunt with Thierry right after Will is finished. Hope the luck continues!
The only easy day is yesterday!

That's me next year. And from the looks of Will's last couple hunts, whatever's left might not be ALL that bad!

A huge congrats to you!

Can't wait to hear the full report

eyedocGreat looking elephant-Now we need to hear "The Rest of the story."
We seldom get to choose
But I've seen them go both ways
And I would rather go out in a blaze of glory
Than to slowly rot away!
20 July 2011, 23:52
Brian ClarkFantastic bull, congrats looking forward to seeing more. Good luck on the leopard.

SGraves155He's in trouble. Mammoth season has been closed for eons.
Great bull!!!! Glad to hear you have a cat on bait. Let's hope you can outsmart him.
Very nice ivory. I'm guessing 65 lbs.
