I hunted with him a couple of years ago. He has people book for Kudus over 60". Not sure how to post the pic but if someone knows it's pretty impressive.

I shot a 52" on my first day and was happy as heck with that. Trevor Tract Optics www.TractOptics.com Use discount code: 24HOUR5 for 5% off your order!

I was happy as heck with my 55" bull a couple of years ago from Namibia. Tract....a 52" bull is a heckuva bull. Got a pic? It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Four or five hundred thousand acres of unfenced East African heaven. The number of kudu (and other game) was simply amazing. If somebody would ever want to hunt free range kudu with the possibility of shooting a 60" bull this is the place I would recommend.
