I haven't seen anyone hunt from the truck we drove around till they found a herd then the stalk was on. Thats some walkin by your son, and good shootin, he must think like me. Don't shoot unless you can do it in one shot. Again awsome animals

Well, the boy and I wanted to do another trip, but unfortunately I got laid off work, at the end of July. Been job hunting for 3 mos. Have an interview tommorrow, and have my fingers crossed. If all goes well, I'd like to go back in 2 yrs. Next time cape buffalo is on the menu.

The cost is really reasonable considering it is les than what you would pay to hunt (decent package) either moose or Brownies in Alasaka. What a bunch of memories!!!!

Awesome.
My money is not even in the right ballpark to consider something like that.
I am pretty jealous.

Looks like a great time... not too sure about the zebra...but i guess there is no issue and the population must be heavy
Congrats

Thanks for the pictures of a great trip! I LOVE the KUDU and GEMSBOK, truly unique animals. I think that everyone has animal or animals they wouldn't want to shoot..........I admit I wouldn't want a water buffalo or those ugly warthogs. My BIL doesn't like to shoot coyotes, but will if there is a nusiance one. Would I shoot a Zebra? Not sure, love the pattern of the coat, but sure would be hard to look my horses in the eye at home lol.
