Very cool 'elks.

Congrats.

Molopo Kalahari Safaris. The food was excellent,the PH was top notch and they spoiled me beyond belief. The companies rep lives in Las Cruces,about 15 minutes away from me.

Ingwe,as of right now US Fish & Wildlife banned the importation of lions from South Africa. I found that out about 3 weeks before my hunt. Will get the dewclaws and floating bones made into jewelry for the wife and daughter. Most likely will not see skull and hide for awhile.

Thats a load of crap!

Earlier safari I had my animals scored,now I just don't care. Cause inches does not translate into the hunting of that animal.

Elks, was gonna say you're trigger happy, then saw all the stuff you left standing. You ought be careful consorting with strange pusse'...they can't be trusted.

Yup,I told the rep the only way I was not going to hunt lioness was if there was an outright ban of lion hunting.

With trump in office that may change,but,right now no lioness hide and skull.

She was too old for me....

'Elks, stupid question but do they eat lion?

I only ask cause mountain lion is some of the best wild game I've ever ate.

Dandy safari, indeed. Thanks for sharing.

Ken.... You shot a lion.... Okay, a lioness. At 25 yards...

AWESOME!

Everything else is gravy. Really good gravy. Congrats on a great hunt!

Congratulations on an excellent safari Ken! Some dandy animals you got there.

Hell of a job Elk!!!!!, many congrats buddy, nice animals and all shots looked to be placed correctly.

You are now scheming on a return, no? ;]

Nope,the springbok I hit through the back legs after missing it about 20 minutes earlier. The shot you see is the finisher.

The oryx I hit in the guts just in front of the hindquater,the next shot I called it in the shoulder,it went high above the spine. That's sweat on my shirt as we followed it for an hour at a fast walk. When dusk arrived,finally got some more shots into it. Overall I hit 4 times and the PH hit it twice when it was all over. Animals are tough when you muck up the first shot.

Yes,going back for eland and sable in 2-3 years.

SLM,yes some do eat lion.After she was skinned she was put in a cooler. No meat is wasted from any animal killed.

Figured after I killed the lioness the PH would take it easy on me,but NOOO,still got up at 5 am and left camp at 5:30.

Took 3.5 days of hunting before I killed the oryx.

Photo bucket did not load up all the pics,so tonight will try again and hopefully tomorrow will post some more.

Please bear with me.

Outstanding, Ken! Green with envy!!!
