Trad Gang Hunt at Sofala Safaris in South Africa
« on: August 13, 2019, 03:47:14 PM »

Terry Green, Mike Yancey, Ron Grist and Dave Haggist

I've been playing catch up since we got back but wanted to post about the great hunt that we had in South Africa.

We saw many animals on this hunt but were selective with shots, here is the group with there trophy Impalas and myself with an Nyala.



Food was out of this world!




Terry and Dave with their Impalas


My Nyala, another animal in my quest for the South African Spiral Slam


Terry mentioned a Zonkey, here he is. That thing messed me up twice at two different water holes by snorting and letting the other animals know of the danger!


Bunch of Warthogs at the water

Kudu and Impala

I saw so many animals on this hunt but didn't take many pictures. When your hunting its hard to take pictures and not spook the game. These animals are 110% wild and wont tolerate a sound or movement.
I would encourage everyone to do this some time! I'm going back net year!

1st off I'd really like to thank to Mike Yancey for putting this hunt together and bringing it to Tradgangs attention so that other Tradgangers could take advantage of this hunt.....this was a very special adventure for me.

Great pictures!!! Can’t wait for the rest of the stories and pictures. What type of equipment were you all using? Bows, arrows, broadheads, bow wieghts?  :campfire:

Jason
Too many bows to list, and so many more I want to try!  Keep the wind in your face, and your broadheads sharp.
