Very cool, is there a story to go with that beast? thanks for sharing.
 
nice elephant

I am sure that there is a story to go with it?
 
A lot of character in those tusks. :thumb:

Wishing your next hunt to be as successful!:meyou:
 
Congrats to you and the lady hunter Wayne.
 
Hi Bob

You and me both want the next hunt to be as successful , it wont be for the lack of trying that's for sure.

For the other members who want a story , there is always a story with every hunt. In a brief note it was taken again pretty early in the hunt day 3, so not too much to tell. It was a really good old bull no hair on tail, thick worn tusks and due to all the rain we have been having, getting around was tough plus there was crop raiding going on in a few places but not as much as normal due to the abundance of rain and available food. We passed up on 2 younger bulls on day 2 .

It is still raining in parts of the country with rain fall records been broken this year all over, dams are full in most parts , rivers are running so its awesome being here witnessing this as it sure does not rain like this every year.

All the best. Safe hunting to all.

Nugget here. A guide gave me the nickname as I looked similar to Nugent at the time. Hunting for over 50 years yet I am new to hunting in another country and its inherent game species. I plan to do archery. I have not yet ruled out the long iron as a tag-along for a stalk. I am still deciding on a short list of game. Not a marksman but better than average with powder and string.

Everyone always thinks about the worst thing that can happen, maybe ask yourself what's the best outcome that could happen?
