First animal of the safari, an impala ram hunted by my friend Jose “Pope”. He is shooting a Satori riser with Uuhka limbs, around 60#
And first one for me, a gemsbok, Border 48# with Ironwill broadheads and Legacy arrows,565 grains.
I hunted another gemsbok but was recovered at night, easy tracking, but at the last light, pic is not so nice but these things happens. Ironwill broadheads are amazing!! As news after the kills
Third one, an old impala ram, same setup except for the heads, this time, the Phantom 220 grains with the bleeders.
Namibia is a great destination, Antonie and Melinda are wonderful hosts. What to say about the trackers. Incredible when you say how they can find an animal shooted the previous day with just a drop of blood and the tracks, with dozens of tracks from others species, and find the animal at more than 500 yards
A treestand near a water tank, watwrbucks everywhere, I counted more than 40 in a day
Treestands and blinds over natural ponds are all over the place but the drought makes them useless many years
Small game makes thing more interesting!
Always thinking in the return trip

Contacted Antonie - he says they are still experiencing a drought.

Drought is not a problem actually, maybe at the end of our summer. If is very hot and the rain doesn’t arrive early could be a problem for the next year, specially for the animals that depends of the grass as the warthogs. Others species still having good food sources.
