gerrybwester tanzania with tbgs add'l photos from crater
I saw six male lions, 3 leopards all male. Buffalo were there but not easy however the ones we did find were all good bulls.sable and Roan were plentiful to say the least.40 inch sable were very easy to get but we had to hunt to get one over 43.roan were also great numbers around the 23 inch mark and we passed a couple slightly bigger before luck came into play for a 27 incher. I saw 3 eland bulls all good bulls and reedbuck were everywhere. Topi were plentiful but skittish as were hartebeest and zebra, The animals were there you had to hunt though it is not a shoot from the truck safari.Next year the two areas will be split into 3 and I believe TBGS got the best of the 3 and kep msima which had good game also.It will make lion more difficult split into 3 areas but I am sure they will take 1 good lion a year.

I hunted with the Romani's TBGS in 2001 and 2006. They are a great outfit.
Thoroughly enjoyed you pics and report. A very outstanding group of trophies. Congratulations.

Too true Aaron, Gerry was a great pleasure to hunt with and he does not tell of the long hot hours he put in looking for his game. Very well deserved Gerry, thanks for a great hunt.
