Biggest Bushbuck in Zambia?

It would be the biggest in the SCI books if he entered it! You gotta see this Bushbuck. I was filming it, and cut off the top of his horns in the frame at first, because I didn't expect the horns to go that far up in the air!

Got some very nice footage of this Bushbuck. This is one of my favorite videos.

Giant Zambia Bushbuck!

Indeed it is the biggest taken in Zambia and somewhere there is a bigger pick up that used to be in camp. The picture is the last one I took at Munyamadzi last year.

Wendell,

Thanks, that's one of my favorite videos. I saved a still photo off of it that I send to outfitters when they ask what animals I'm looking for. So far, no one has said that they can get me one like it.

Spend a bit of time dedicated to chasing them and you will find others like this at Munyamadzi. I've seen a couple like the one Andrews hunter scored, this past season so they're there.

Superb trophy and one of my favorites to pursue. Biggest I've ever seen was 19+.

That is one hell of a Bushbuck. Congratulations.

This one was 19 1/8" if I remember correctly.

a few days after I left Munyamadzi, I saw one on Lake Kariba that is a tiny bit smaller than this guy. Or not? I dunno, probably smaller, but a stud of a Bushbuck. Yes, I have video to prove it. I will post it, and you guys can tell me if he is bigger or not! I only have a few seconds of video of him. But you can clearly see what a toad this guy is.

I've spent a little time chasing them but I'd like to get one with two horns one of these days. Maybe I need to go look in Munyamadzi.

Here is that giant Bushbuck I filmed in Zimbabwe the following week. It's a few seconds at the beginning of my Hippo hunting video. Make sure you select HD, so you can see how big this Bushbuck is. He is the brother to this monster Bushbuck.

Frank, I think you have seen more bushbuck than half the PH's in Africa.

Whats next Harnessed?

I only see the one-horned ones!

I may need to come back to Kwa Zulu Natal and hunt that dark ram that we saw on the last evening, above the valley with the waterfall.
