Provided I did the link correctly, this is the video highlights from our 2016 safari in Zimbabwe with Charlton and McCallum Safaris - Dande Concession - Ward 1. Unusual combination of targeted animals, but we lacked leopard and croc, as a family, to complete the Dangerous 7. Since sable roam the mountains in this area, we booked that as well but had little hope of crossing paths with a bull.


 
Great video, thanks for sharing it.
Congratulations,

Congrats and thanks for sharing!
 
Great video.

Drones add a lot to hunting videos.
 
Great video of a great hunt!
 
Just watched again, and yeah the drone got some great footage also. Great watch!
 
Nice video and trophies! I've heard good things about CMS. There is a guy I know of here in Arizona that has hunted with them a few times. That aerial drone footage is pretty cool!
 
Really excellent video. Some great shots - both by the hunter and the cameraman!

Did the cameraman have a microlight or a chopper to get some of those shots?

He had a DJI Phantom 4 drone. He learned to fly it while we were there - and it didn't take long for him to master it. By the last day he was doing launches and recoveries from a pontoon boat in the middle of the Zambezi.
 
I need to get with the times! That explains the great shots when the camera suddenly pulls up.
 
Fantastic Video that helps capture the all the moments and experience. Thank you for sharing.
 
Nice crocodile! That looked cool on video!

Nugget here. A guide gave me the nickname as I looked similar to Nugent at the time. Hunting for over 50 years yet I am new to hunting in another country and its inherent game species. I plan to do archery. I have not yet ruled out the long iron as a tag-along for a stalk. I am still deciding on a short list of game. Not a marksman but better than average with powder and string.
