Elephant in Botswana

Just back from a GREAT HUNT w/ Johan Calitz in NG41. PH was Andrew Walker. Saw tons of elephant plus all the other Dangerous 7 except Rhino. Took a really pretty 55 lbr. Saw heavier tusks but wanted pretty and big and felt well satisfied with the one we selected. Did manage a couple of days tiger fishing on the Zambezi, organized by my PH. Also a great experience.

I didn't have any "bad" days. Saw at least 20 and most days 50 bulls.
