I too am enjoying your videos! Short & sweet.
Congrats on the Gemsbok! Top of my list, should I ever make it to Africa.

Very nice. Last week I moved my 2018 Zim buff/sable hunt to 2017...

Gunner,
I passed over this thread I don't know how many times. Just not big on clicking links. But, I'm glad I finally gave in to the temptation.
Great clip, really enjoyed it!
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing. I really enjoyed hunting Gemsbok. Seeing all those 'black sticks' when looking at the horizon is a great memory.

I wasn't interested in shooting gemsbok on my first two trips as the photos I had seen didn't impress me. (Perhaps I was confusing them with the scimitar-horned oryx.)
Once I got on the ground this trip, I was immediately impressed with their size (they look larger IRL than in this video) and coloration. I wound up taking two last week.

Thanks Guy, you gotta go man, it's a perfectly legal mindblow. EdM, good for you friend, what ya taking for firepower? AKBob5, you're welcome, it was really my pleasure, you ought to give it a whirl, hell, what do we work for anyway?, time to play a bit! prm, damn nice Gemsbok you have there, I've heard them referred to as clows because of their face colors, being close to a busting out herd is anything but clownish, I'd wager heavily those sombucks could be all business if they wished. Postoak, congrats on the double, I knew I wanted a Gemsbok and a nice Impala before I left home, don't really know why, just seemed right.

Perfect rig, perfect caliber, perfect bullet for the task.
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

Hell of a deal, I couldn't tell from your posts if you'd ever shot one, that's a dandy, must be in the 40" neighborhood, Congrats of a fine Gemsbok AkBob.

Damn right it bites hard, I've had to undergo a severe medicative therapy program to try to keep myself from blasting away 50K a year for the rest of my days on this newly found affliction!
