Apologies for the long delays in the photos Gentlemen. Somehow the settings on my camera got mixed up, which may or may not be from the camera getting wet after rescuing my dogs after they swam in after a bayed Waterbuck in a pond. Have to run all the photos through a program first before posting them. Seem to have it figured out.
Luckiest Blue Duiker hunter I have ever met. Is this considered a Blue Duiker Dugga Boy? Notice the secondary growth on the left horn.

Wet cat looks terrible, I know. We tried our best to dry it with a hairdryer, then in front of a fan, but the mud made the cat look Rastafarian. As we drove into a Bushbuck area, we got the call that the dogs were hot on a scent, and relocated to the area. The cat got treed, and the huntress made a perfect shot. Little did we know that the tree the cat was up, was perched on a ledge with a 12ft drop on the other side, with a pond at the bottom. We could not see the ledge due to how thick the vegetation was. After the shot, the cat bailed from the tree, which was followed by a short silence, and a familiar... "gooompffff" followed by couple of more splashes from the first dogs that never knew there was a ledge there either.
