During my impala hunt I was hunting out of a large pit blind at a small water hole. The impala came into the water hole from left side of the blind from 300 yards. Instead of approaching from the left, he skirts the water hole and comes in on the right side of the water hole. I miss judge the distance and hit him low but the impala is hit well enough that he only goes 15 yards and dies in less than 10 minutes. I was very fortunate that the impala did not go anywhere since I did not have a good follow up shot from my shooting window. The reeds on the video were pretty thick from my shooting lane. It wasn't until I reviewed the video that I realized I should have been ready for a follow up shot on the window that my PH "Otto" was filming from....lady luck was on my side on this one.

 
Looks like a very good Impala. Congrats..Bruce
 
Good job Archer!

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
