Well done!

On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Just returned from Masailand hunt.
First time to Tanzania
Hunted hard for the Lesser Kudu. Was not a gimme, like some of the plains animals are. We new where he lived just could not connect with him. Every time we showed up the Masai were in the river bottom where he lived. We tried late in the day, middle of the day and morning. We finally decided to get there in the dark and as soon as we could see, we moved in.Four females blew out the side. When we saw where they went we just moved up and out of the heavy cover and waited. Did not take long and he stepped out. Looked at him for a second and shot him.
Within minutes of the shot the Masai people showed up to see what was going on. Must have been 20 men and young boys there to see it.
Here is a picture of the future Masai warriors club
