Me and the Paw Print team got this mighty Bushbuck just before lunch today! I fact we were headed out of the hunting area when we caught a glimpse of him through some thick stuff. Pieter said he was huge and to shoot him! It was hard getting on him but I could see his body moving and got a round through his liver to stop him. Then I could just make out his head enough to get a round through his neck!
This guy measured out at 16 1/2 inches.
Mike Smith from Capricorn taxidermy has already picked him up a long with two zebra, eland, sable and the two porcupines. I plan to have a full body mount done of him!
