Lion on Omay North
A client hunting with PH Bruce Cronje in Martin Pieter's Omay North area successfully hunted this lion. It was taken on the fourth day of the hunt. Around 4:00 in the afternoon, Bruce and his client found the lion on the bait and were able to put it in he salt.

It was part of a very good safari that included elephant, buffalo, hippo, crocodile, and plainsgame with the lion.

Congratulations to all involved.

That's a great looking cat. I hunted with Bruce in 08 and had one hell of a great time with him. He's a very good PH.

Speaking of baiting for the weak-willed! Big Grin

And yes, I do resemble that remark. Where were these bloody cats in April of '11?
