Elephant Bull Quartering-to Brain Shot At 15 Yards

[VertigoBE]

During a conservation hunt in Zimbabwe, this ancient bull elephant with broken tusks was hunted in the thick brush. A quartering-to brain shot from 15 yards was executed while surrounded by about 40 more bull elephants. An insurance shot was provided but ultimately not necessary.

That's how it's done...and then finish low to get the angle. Well done.

It sounds like a great hunt. Very nice. Do ele not instantly fall to a brain shot? Or perhaps it did and it wasn't apparent to me...

Excellent!!

It fell instantly...they throw their head back and their back legs collapse...there were ele all around it. If you want to get creeped out a bit, listen to how quietly 40 ele can move quickly!
