Title: Africa 2012
Post by: coaster500 on July 02, 2012, 10:29:00 PM

2012 is far from over but accomplishing a life long dream and going to Africa to hunt has to rank at the top of my list   :)

Africa is definitely one of the coolest things in the world! I have been twice and am scheming how to get back over there at least one more time.

What is that brown critter in the second pic? I don't think I have seen one of those. Very nice Nyala, blesbuck, and impala!

Congrats on your successes!

Thank you   :)  

I truly hope I can go back someday????

Bisch that little antelope is called a Red Duiker and believe it or not that little guy is eight to ten years old. I the picture he is pretty much lying inside my 56" Thunderchild!!!
According to Lammie (my PH) a very hard animal to take with any weapon?

Bisch, Isn't it you that has the full body mount of one of his Duiker (grey?) cousins?

I was thinking it was probably something like that but I have never seen one while over there.

Yes, I have a full body mount grey duiker. It is one of, if not the, coolest mounts I have. I was very pleased with how that one came out. Here is a pic of mine just in case you are thinking about going that route with your mount:

Congrats again on all your critters!
