These photos are various photos that i have taken during the last three months in my hunting area, Sengwe 1 which lies in the south east of Zimbabwe right above Kruger National Park

Enjoy

Cheeky buff

Jimmy had to have his photo taken with this Baobab, note the condition of the veld due to overgrazing from the locals.

once again taking a break from following the herd of buffalo

wounded buffalo that i got my father in law to take as a trophy and birthday present from myself


buffalo hunting can become a waiting game - we waited over 5 hours for the buffalo to move into grass that was manageable



Locals collecting sap from Lala Palm trees, they then fertment this stuff to produce a "wine" that will send you on an orbit of note

you are right, he is very nice. but that being said his brothers in crime being two old dagga boys were off to the left of the frame and were bigger than him. i put them both over 46" hard bosses but i could not get a decent photo of them.

thanks all

Great photos

Great pix...THANKS...

Great pics. Do you have one of your garden after the elephant wrecked it?

Aubrey,

Nice season, and some very cool pics. Thanks for sharing them.

Good to hear your area is producing excellent trophies. Look forward to visiting you in Reno.

Cheers

Frank, unfortunately not my guys had replanted the garden or at least prepared it by the time i wanted to take a photo, i might have a photo where the elephant buggered up my French drains.....

Jack, thanks - unfortunately i wont be in Reno, my full buffalo hunt donation didnt warrant me making the cut, 2012 hope to be there. will be in Dallas though - i owe you a beer or 12!
