Kacee and I hunted with Omujeve safaris last week. She was shooting her 7mm/08 loaded with Barnes 140 gr Tsx. I was shooting .300 wing Mag load with Barnes 168gr TTSX. We hunted hard and out PH was awesome especially with Kacee as most of the animals were taken from 150-200 yds off shooting sticks. The weather was 40-69 degrees it was incredible hunt and already trying to figure out how to return. [Linked Image] she took the blue on stalk with ph and well placed shot from the 7/08 she had her first African trophy, we went back for lunch at the lodge which was first class. Later in the afternoon she took a great Kudu

[Linked Image] the next day we hunted hard and passed on several animals until this gemsbok was spotted and Kacee made a great stalk and shot on this 42" gemsbok.

After passing a sable the third day she wanted a giraffe and I had told her no sable if you shoot giraffe so we headed to north ranch where she took a giraffe to start the morning.
[Linked Image] she dropped him one shot with 7mm/08 and then two immediate to chest to be certain. He was dead when hit ground from well placed neck shot below head.

Thanks, went to dr today and was sent to hospital for Doppler as I took a bad fall while hunting and bruised leg. The dr said I should have never gotten on the plane to come home, well I did and after I sonogram(Doppler) exam to dr's disbelief no signs of clots was given a script for the swelling.

Just wonderful trophies with the wife stealing the show! Congrats all around and you are lucky that the leg didn't give you a real emergency.
