The wide one was with a Heym PH 470 NE, and the other was with a Heym PH 450/400.
 
The only thing forgotten and not seen again will be those trophy fee and day rates.
 
This bull was one of the most memorable. I killed him and another bull after a long hike up a big hill in Tanzania with Cliff Walker in Kizigo. He had no desire to die. My 470 got a workout on this bull. He took 6 of us to load him cut in half. By far the biggest bodied bull I have seen.

Hello Martin,
Congratulations!
What kind of ammos have you used ? cal. bullet ..?
 
This one was apparently sold for 6M Rand a few years ago as a stud bull. I have no more information than that or even if this is true but nevertheless, it is a monster bull........

Seen on the first morning of the safari, this old bull was too good to pass up. A spectacular trophy hunted by a true gentleman of the field in Mozambique.

Jerome, you know these are killing some of us. The old double is being scoped right now and I am temporarily grounded. But when released I'm Africa bound. By the way Merry Christmas to all.

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?
Zim Fan wrote on Charlie64's profile.
You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.
