:thumbsup:    :thumbsup:   :thumbsup:
Its nice you finally got one, After all the hours you and Nige put in, its definalty well earnt and deserved. I was starting to think you would give up on the walk and stalk and come and steal my hide.
When i was told you had got one, i new me and my water hole were safe. Addicted to the walk and stalk.
Europen or shoulder???

Way to go! I passed a shot at a Bushbuck when I hunted Africa a few years ago. I kick myself every time I think about it!  :banghead:

oh boy Allen   :saywhat:   they are tricky to get pretty elusive animals difficult to get a second chance at.

we hunted really hard to get onto these Bushbuck but they are pretty territorial and if you spot one in a particular spot he will likely be there the next day, they like thick bush and thick cover along rivers.

i shot this one when he was on a river bank and i stalked in using the soft quite dry river sand.
