Very nice choppers on that porcine critter; makes mine look a bit puny.
Nice dark, chocolate coat on that waterbuck.

That waterbuck is a classic! I always have liked the bullseye stripe they have on their rump. Please note the happy safari grin on the hunter. You couldn't remove it with sandpaper. Great hunt!

If they had a stripe in the shape of a stop sign, they'd never prosper in louisanna!

Thanks for the nice words about the animals. That waterbuck was very old and was covered in scars from fighting. We had heard him fighting with some other males for a few minutes until he popped out and I shot. He is not the longest but he has very very large bases. He as mentioned is very dark. The PH had been after this one and had gotten a glimpse of him early in the season. I am not a "score" person. I prefer good animals that are mature and have lots of character. The Red Hartebeest has nice horns as well but is very old and was going down hill. He had a grey color to him. Again lots of character.
I have taken a few animals with a gun so now I am planning on using the bow. My planned group hunt has fallen through so I am looking for another place to bowhunt.
