Congratulations Mark, those are all great trophies. Not sure why but I really like the Eland, he just looks very mature and regal.

RJ,

That eland in my mind other than the little guys is the trophy of the safari. He has the unusual combination of very long horns and great maturity. He was old enough that the keel on the front of his horns was worn nearly flat. On an eland of that age his horns might be as much as a 8"-10" shorter. In his prime I can only imagine what a beast he might have been.

The tsetse were getting really bad towards the end of the season, especially in spots. Real little bastards - but I love to hate them!

Jorge,

The bugs including tetses were hungry in Mozambique but I've seen them far worse on the Luangwa in Zambia. There of course were no tetses in Botswana.

great report and Clive and Linda run a top operation in Botswana.
Nothing beats a agent who gets out there and walks the walk so he can talk the talk at the shows. Well done and you are a fine example of a true sport hunter.
Regards
Graeme
