We were on our way to the next bushmen site, “the hole in the wall”, when this gorgeous Kudu stood and admired us in the warm morning sun. Wayne and I both asked Michelle if she wanted to take him but she declined, would you have? She shot him with her Olympus instead! Gorgeous!

We climb up, and I mean climbed with a rope in some spots! Michelle doesn't like heights and with Wayne coaching her and me keeping my trap shut, she was able to conquer the mountain, that's my girl.

A lot of rock drawings in amongst the different overhangs and caves.

We weren’t sure what these markings were, possibly foot prints of some type painted on the rock? Interesting!

This spot was easily defensible as it was a steep climb up, you couldn’t approach directly from the back as a granite mountain was directly behind and it had a wide field of view for spotting game or enemies approaching. The feeling of being in an unexplored place where bushmen lived is hard to...

On the way back to the truck, I almost stepped on these little gems.

FANTASTIC Sable and congratulations! I'm drooling looking at those steaks!

Dana thought it was prime time for her mid morning beauty nap.

The terrain varied greatly across the property ranging from pretty much open plains to thick, impenetrable, brush over very uneven ground to lush creek beds and wetlands to boulder mazes and granite mesas.

We came across some Zebra and Giraffe. One of the Giraffe, a bull whose spots had mostly turned dark indicating it is likely around 9 years old, was sleeping when we found him under a tree.

Beautiful cold sunrise that morning

I’m such a great guy and always keeping an eye out and thinking about my wonderful wife, I found her a new rock for her finger!

We ran across a Warthog that was obviously in distress. I dismounted from the truck and Sam and I put a stalk on the sick hog and dispatched him quickly, I was glad to end its misery. The 165gr Peregrine penetrated the skull through and through.

Looking forward to the rest of the story!

Awesome hunt with your daughter, great trophies and memories that will last forever!

Wednesday 25 July, Day 8 of Safari: Breakfast sandwiches to go once again, we aren’t giving up on the buff or eland. We checked out a watering hole that some local intel said a buffalo bull was drinking below the dam, bad intel but a beautiful cold sunrise that morning. We drive the roads...
