I did a two day warm-up on my hunt (with John, right after Doc) but not by choice...my .450 Dakota ammo didn't arrive to the BVC until the morning of Day 3!
So I took a Zebra (#4 for me, can't get enough of Zebra) and a Spotted Hyena.
Took to hunting Buff on day 3. Took my buffalo on day 6.
Then spent 6 days chasing scarce Eland, without firing a shot!
As Doc mentioned, the drought has added some complexity to the hunt. I thought it would concentrate the animals and make hunting easier...but not if they were concentrated on a block other than the one you are hunting!
Tim, that bull is a beauty! A gray-faced, hard-bossed old bastard! Well done!
Still haven't posted any pics of my buff from last month. I've tried uploading pics but the files I have are too big for the app here on 24HCF. I've got to find the time to get on that.
