I shot a nice Nyala of 27,5 and we used 2 days to find it in between a lot of others nyalas also with nice horns but this one had the shape on the horns i wanted.

Use Enough GunNice photos. Can you see if you can downsize and restore them to web site size? They are currently much to big for the post. Great hunt and good trophies.

BoghossianNice pigs, but the ostrich in a corn field must be one of the strangest hunting scenes around!
Well done.

Aspen Hill AdventuresGabriel,
Thousands of deer are shot in American corn fields every year! I bet 'big bird' are just as attracted to corn and hard on the fields.
Excellent trophies, Donner!

Fallow BuckOut of curiosity, what do you do with an ostrich? and what did you shoot one with?
I'm all for it but just never really thought about it. The meat is excellent though as I've eaten it a few times here in the UK.

Use Enough GunThe pics are much better re-sized. By the way, that's interesting about the marauding ostriches.

Same thing happens here in Oz, with emus. They wreck fences faster than anything else, UEG.

graybirdFor some strange reason, I've always wanted to take an ostrich and make some boots out of him and a purse for the wife.
