My Nyala and Unicorn (bushbuck) from my hunt last year with Venture South Outfitting on a free range concession in KwaZulu Natal. My taxidermist (Jerry Huffaker) will probably be mad for me posting these instead of the glamor shots that he usually takes. Since he's in Texas it may take a while for the box to get here.

I uploaded the photos into a gallery but I can't figure out how to get the photos into this post.

Frank, I gave up and did like you've done. Got images to a gallery and they wound up sideways. I'll see 'em at AR instead.

Jerry Huffaker has no peer IMO. His work is world class. Congrats on some fine trophies.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Very nice, I'm thinking hard about rounding out my spiral horn slam soon, a Nyala as nice as that one would be a great opportunity. And yes, the waiting is excruciating.
Trump Won!

Thanks guys, I need to shoot an Eland to finish my spiral horn slam. I've just never seen one of those old, blue bulls on any of my trips.
