And the trail cam photos start

I cant believe your last hunt was 2015, man time went by quick. Getting pumped for you brother!
 
Ya bro unreal isn't? Seems like yesterday when I think about the hours in a blind waiting for him to show up.
 
Have a great trip and hope for much success!
 
I'm rooting for you, good luck and shoot straight.
 
Good luck partner. I was lucky on a cat my fourth night - took me seven safaris to kill a bleeding bushbuck. The Gods of the Chase or fickle. But I have a good feeling about this hunt. Either rifle, bullet, or scope will do the job. I have no doubt the man behind them will as well.

Thank you sir, I appreciate that.

. Another bait hit by another big male
 
Eeny, meany, miney, moe, which one do you shoot; or don't you know?
 
That would be a leopard hunters dream.
 
For anyone interested NW Namibia where my PH is had 50 and 80 mm of rain this weekend. Good news.
 
I don’t see a date count down started? I’d be counting the hours!

Johnny - who and exactly where will you be hunting. What Outfitter and NW Namibia is a large place. Would love to know.

Have an absolute monster on bait. PH estimates 80-90 kg. Tried to take down the camera.

He does look stout!
 
Good news.
Hopefully, he is lazy and likes an easy meal.

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)
