5 most challenging species excluding the big 5

No sir, I have not. I do not think it is realistic to try and hunt a Swamp Tunga with a bow. If people succeed then it is 99% luck. I am still planning a Black Lechwe hunt but not soon. There are a few other animals that have to go down first.

I have hunted them with clients with a rifle but never with a bow. One day is one day..............

thanks for the reply. the sitatunga was the one i was really wondering about. after being up there a couple of times and thinking about it, and reading your stories it seemed to me to be right up your street, in that it would be very, very difficult . i agree it would be 99% luck . wouldnt mind hearing how you got close enough to a kafue lechwe to get it with a bow. :think::D

Nugget
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?
