Well done
 
Wow - dream hunt without question! Waidsmannheil!
 
Great trophies!
Looking fwd to the report!
 
WOW, congrats!
 
Bongo on day 2! Wow. Love the ivory tips on mature bongos. Bongo and sitatunga in 7 days...that's just fantastic. Congrats and I look forward to the rest of the story.
 
Nice you look like a very happy hunter. Very nice animals. Looking forward to hearing the details of the hunt.
 
That went well !!!
 
Who is the outfitter/PH? I would be thrilled with the bongo only much less the sitatunga a few days later.

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
