This video proves just how tough these African animals are! Although we initially thought this Impala ram was dead, he had other ideas when I grabbed his horns lesson learnt about making 120% sure the animal is dead! I put the full stalk part in to show just how the whole hunt down
 
Yep that’s why I have seen every PH I’ve ever hunted with walk up and stick a rifle barrel or shooting stick in his eye!

Yeah this buck especially bamboozled me, since I did touch his eye with my rifle the first time and he did not react. But yeah it was a close call and I'm just glad no-one got hurt.
 
It's the dead ones that kill you!
 
I got this.

Very unusual I should think. On the one hand I would say just nerves that didn't know it was over, but the way it tried to stand and then back up was pretty weird.:eek::eek:o_O

Hi Joshlee0518 (please let me know if you are fine being addressed like that),

Thought I would drop you a PM. It is super exciting to plan a hunt and we are more than happy to assist you. Have you given any thought yet to which species you would like to take?

What do you hunt usually and which weapons/calibers are you using?

Look forward to swapping experiences and ideas.

Happy hunting - Daniel
