First bull - Zimbabwe October 2013

If this knarly old bull ain't a dagga boy, I don't know what is... Took us four solid days to get him in the Hwange Park region of Zim. The lions had hundreds of buff surrounded and herded for the entire time I was there, trackers managed to shag out 3 of the old boys and I took the biggest...

With the possible exception of the dagga boy, this 5"+ klipspringer was the hardest won trophy of the last two weeks in the dry 100 degree heat I spent on the Meeteetse River in Zimbabwe. That's me on the left, Walla my trusty PH on the right. I think he was happier than I was as this...

Hunting the Omay with Martin Pieters Safaris...this bull had been wounded months earlier. My bullets didn't perform even though I had hit him hard several times. Lots of lung blood, but you know the saying - the dead ones get you. notice the bullet hole below is right eye...from PH Allan Moody...

2007 Nyamuswa, Zimbabwe. Gutted the ele was tracked down one long day long (30+km) and finished with the 375. Hectic day as we had to check quite a few bulls close and personal, and decamp from ele herds' anger.

2007 Nyamuswa Zimbabwe with Buzz Charlton. We saw this 50lbs bull twice before shooting him at 12m. On the pic he is scrutinising us, then turned and was shot in the belly, a twig deflectin the arrow. None the less the arrow whizzed through the ele's body and shattered in the bush behind.

Pic from a video (Zambezi extreme) when my arrow is entering the treed leopard. Look at the withish rod slightly askew on the low middle ribcage. The tom would struggle 2 minutes, before falling down.

. 2007 Nyamuswa Zimbabwe with Buzz Charlton and Tristan Peacock. 5th day of hard running after this elusive tom, the hounds were finished. Thanks to Tristan Peacock's great team. One shot kill at 15 m to a treed pissed tom.
