Bisch, congrats bud. Great trophies. Hate you lost the wilderbeast, but it happens. Anytime you get into the neck, there is always hope, but as you know sometimes we're lucky...sometimes just not. I had a very similar experience in 96 on a big Kudu bull in Zim w/ a wheelie bow, and got lucky and hit jugular...he didn't go 40 yards. I've also experienced the opposite outcome on Nilgai bull, which looked like identical placement...just never know. Where you in a pit blind or similar with low ceilings, and if so did that hinder you?
