NAMIBIA: Johnnyblues V.S. Mr. Spots Round Two

Nice Dik dik!
That will be a lot of warthog tusks. Which gun did you use?
Good luck on the continued hunt!
Had my 300 in my hand at the time. Shot him low enough to minimize damage
 
Ok gents just got in from a long day. While dragging one of the warthogs on the way to a bait site my PH shouted to the driver in Afrikaans to stop.. He frantically pointed to me 25 yards behind me stood a nice dik dik. One shot several steps later I had this little beauty. Man there pretty

Ok so another long day. Had one bait hit last night, photos appear to be a small male. The moon is going dark now and we found an increase in spoor. Game seems to be on the move. Since the leopards have not hit baits in a week we feel it will increase again. Once we have a good cat on camera we willsit
 
Ok gentlemen, had two baits hit last night. On one of our baits we have a small male feeding and then a female came in with a good mature male. So 3 on one bait! We’re in motion now to get things ready to sit on that bait. As I said they are once again active and feeding. As Marius said to me “ ice in the veins”! Wish me luck!

This begs a comment but I am going to try to behave myself
 
Yea I thought about that but if you want to engage in a battle of wits with my better half you are on your own buddy. She has a quick wit and is tougher than woodpecker lips.

Ok so spots decided not to show on our first sit. Thought for sure I’d have s crack at him. Will try another sit today. Mentally very challenging.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
