Day 2 on Safari . - 09/27/12
After a semi good nights sleep and a few cups of coffee,me my PH Jacques and driver/tracker Jannie headed out on the cruiser looking for Zebra. The zebra here were very elusive and never stayed in one spot. We cut some fresh tracks and got off the cruiser and began tracking the zebras.Jannie was amazing to watch as we trailed the herd. He followed over ground I couldn't see any sign on.We followed the tracks for close to 3 hours but never could catch up to the herd.It was getting late in the morning so we headed back to the cruiser to head to camp for brunch.Along the way we spotted a group of impala 3 rams in the group and 1 was very nice so we planned a stalk around a kopee. we slowly reached the top and crawled into position.Jacques lowered the sticks and I got comfortable in a sitting position.we watched until the females cleared and the large ram presented a shot.Jacques said "he's at 244" I confirmed"yards right?" and he said "yes yards not meters"
I steadied the crosshairs and squeezed. They took off on a full run but the ram was on his last run he dropped after 75 yds it was a perfect heart shot!The ram measured a hair under 23"
