On our arrival at our Base of operation( can't call it a camp ) we enjoyed a quick lunch got our very lovely room and checked rifles my 270 win performed while gremlins showed up while installing scope on my 404Jeffery as quick release clamp screwshad been over torqued in past and chose that moment to fail lucky it had iron sights and as it turned out was never required.
After checking rifles we went for adrive to see what might present itself. Zana spotted a mixed heard of springbuck and Black Wildebeest we stopped got off truck and the hunt started My wife came with us and as we snuck up behind and embankment to peek over saw a picture of grazing animals everywhere. After a time Zana pointed to a very nice old Black wildebeest bull put thesticks up and as I waited for a shot a bigger bull decided that maybe he saw something poking it head over the bank and headed towards us changed his mind turned broad side 50yds and gave me a perfect shot.He ran off with a cloud of dust and gave me a second shot at about 100 yds which Zana said afterwards wasn't needed. A beautiful Bull bigger than the one on my wall at home so Taxidermy bill started to grow first day. Then back to lodge for a dinner prepared by our chef wow its a wonder we didn't gain several pounds with the meals he prepared for us every day.
