I have only been back home a few days from our latest safari with Limcroma, and trying to sort through the mountain of photos and video we shot. We had an amazing time and experienced some incredible hunts. I am going to write up a formal hunting report when I get everything sorted and edited.

Here is a little teaser Iphone video of a stalk we pulled off on a kudu bull one morning. Of course because I decided to pass him, my PH Franco and I managed to get within 18 yards. He never knew we were there... This is why we bowhunt!

 
Lots of folks here would of been happy to shoot that bull. Right off hand looked over 50 inches. Pretty nice especially with a bow. Bet he had your heart rate up there a ways. Looking forward to your hunt report.

Yes Sir,
Franco called him to be right about the 50" mark. A fine kudu bull for anyone bow or rifle. He figured him to be 6-7 years old and a bit light on mass so he needs a couple more years to see his full potential.

As you say, it really doesn't matter how big the animal is when you get in that close. Your heart races at the possibility regardless! It was a lot of fun!

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
