Ain't that the truth!  What a fabulous hunt though!  Thanks for sharing.

Very nice.  I personally think the nyala may be the best trophy in Africa, and yours is a beauty.

I just noticed this. Outstanding Bisch! If you don't mind my asking, what outfitter were you hunting with? A blind called "brick house" sounds very familiar to me. Great job. Memories to last a lifetime!

Oops sorry. Just noticed you posted the name of the outfitter in the beginning. I have not been there so there must be more than one place with a blind called "brick house".

Cool Stuff Bisch.  You did all that with a 50 lb bow... Thats what I like to hear because so many people think you need 100 zillion lbs of draw weight to kill African critters.

WEll done, Excellent trip.
Relax,

You'll live longer!

Charlie, there are a few African critters you need some extra oomph for; any of the big cats, cape buffalo, elephant, hippo, probably giraffe. I would not dare hunt any of those with my setups! Most all the other plains game animals are not any different than animals here.

Thanks guys!

Just awesome Bisch. Yes those Impalas can pull some maneuvers that would boggle Einstein's mind.

If I get back I would go back just for ONE Nyala. they are awesome critters.
