My Cape Kudu is short and thin.....only 46"

But what he lacks in length/mass he more than made it up with deep curls

He would have been a nice one in 3 or 4 more years

I understand Lin Stanton (Mbalabala Safaris) had a client kill a 55" kudu in Zim this year. Now that is a nice animal.

Here's my youngest daughter's kudu shot when she was 16:
[Linked Image]

Almost 61" on one horn and 60" on the other.

Shot in Zimbabwe in 2014. I'll never top it!

Proud of the kid, all 115 lbs of her shot it with my .375 H&H.

^That is certainly a kudu of a lifetime! And only 16.

Thanks for sharing.

So what is the measure? Follow the spiral or a simple T?

Start at the skull, measuring around the curve atop the ridge. Full "score" combines both lengths and the circumference of both horns at the base. (People usually just give the length of one horn.)
