Tall ceilings in the foyer for sure. We have relocated with Pieter to Rustenburg SA for the rest of our time here! Warthog is on the list for this afternoon!

Congrats on the nice Nyala!

Beautiful Nyala!
 
This is the biggest one I have ever seen myself. We were just headed in for lunch when we saw this big fellow moving down the mountain in a draw! I asked Pieter if we could shoot Nyala on this particular property and he said yes. That's all it took!
 
Very nice nice Charlie.... Odd looking wart hog though;) Just goes to show how great an African hunt can be if you can remain a bit flexible.

Great day of hunting for Bryson! He took the pig on the left at 3:30 and then the one on the right at about 5:45. Pieter was convinced that there was a big pig on the property and he kept looking!!!! That's what you call Good PHing.

Home sweet home while we are hunting in Rustenburg! The family taking care of us is wonderful.
 
Bryson's smile is almost as big as the warthogs!!!

Awesome work Pieter, Charie & Bryson! Looking good! We are still after buffalo, the weather is real bad here the last 2 days, cold and windy.

Edward I'm having a pressed coffee as I read your comment. Not sure we will get the chance on the hog but I will ask.

Edward I think Africa is calling Idaho looking for you!

Heinrich, do I need to send a picture to remind you what the buffalo looks like? Ha!
Turned cold and rainy yesterday afternoon and the wind knocked out the power for awhile.
Good hunting!

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

2,822fps, ES 8.2
This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.
