This animal was taken a little ways outside of Ladysmith. Before I took this base package animal my thoughts were to just do a European mount but after I got it on the ground and looked it over I have decided on a full shoulder pedestal mount. The 375 H & H was the rifle of choice for this shot.

6MM that a dandy ... you will enjoy a should mount...you will be able to move it around as you like...
 
I think black wildebeest are fun to hunt. They are a little goofy. But their blond tail hair and cool horns, make them a fine trophy!
 
Black Wildebeest were the last on my list but the first that I got and their not easy to take down.
CONGRATS 6mm on a fine one.
 
Nice bull, congratulations.
 
Did you go nyala hunting at all, as long as you were in KZN Province?
 
Thats an incredible set of horns for a package animal. They may not be large bodied animals but they are tough.
