I was going to say mid-high 40's.....long for sure, could be heavier
 
I would guess 45" on the one in front. Appears to be a bull? The one behind it is longer I think but thin so probably a cow.

On second look I think they're both cows. Judging by the compressed rings, I'd say the one in front is very old. One behind not so much. Both are incredible specimens. They are a beautiful animal for sure.
 
That's gonna be 50" give or take
 
On the shoulder, when ready shoot! Bang! Who cares how many inches, it's a stud.
 
Oh........... be still my heart.

Guessing 44-46". He really is a magnificent animal (and the one behind him).

Will you let us know HENRY GRIFFITHS SAFARIS?
 
Not very concise, but 44-48” is my guess. Likely right at 4’ at the shoulder and pretty dang close to that on the horns.

Dang. Didn’t see the second picture. Better comparison to body size. Upping estimate to close to 50!
 
43 7/8"
 
I think two Females 41in at the back 45-46 the front ?
 
I think their heads are approximately 13” from bottom to base of horns

Good Morning x84958
I have read your post about Jamy Traut and your hunt in Caprivi. I am planning such a hunt for 2026, Oct with Jamy.
Just a question , because I will combine Caprivi and Panorama for PG, is the daily rate the same the week long, I mean the one for Caprivi or when in Panorama it will be a PG rate ?
thank you and congrats for your story.
Best regards
Philippe from France

Hello Doug,
I am Philippe from France and plan to go hunting Caprivi in 2026, Oct.
I have read on AH you had some time in Vic Falls after hunting. May I ask you with whom you have planned / organized the Chobe NP tour and the different visits. (with my GF we will have 4 days and 3 nights there)
Thank in advance, I will appreciate your response.
Merci
Philippe
