Tiny ten hunting questions

Everyone, thanks for posting on this thread. I have recently decided to go after the tiny 10 in the next year or two. In the past, I have only been interested in the larger animals. I have tried for Blue Duiker twice in Zambia but have been unsuccessful. IT was fun calling them in.
 
You can actually turn klipspringer into a good mountain hunt. My Dad took his after a full day effort climbing mount Etjo in Namibia and so did other client in camp later that week. In NW Namibia, we saw klipspringer climbing up towards the last remaining springs in the valleys. In Limpopo, I’ve seen them in huge valleys that you could turn into a glassing hunt and planning a long stalk.
My klipsringer was a good mountain hunt, very difficult for my aging knees! When I make it back to Africa I will always try to find a new TT, they are a blast to hunt. Wish I would have concentrated on them earlier. Have had opportunities at at least 8 of them but only have taken advantage of 3, some of my biggest regrets in my hunting career. Never been to Namibia so no chance for a dik-dik and didn’t see a cape grysbok.
 
I enjoy hunting the tiny ten. I think it is absolutely part of the African hunting experience. With so many different species of antelope, you never know what might appear. When you see a nice one, don’t pass up the opportunity.
Stalking them can be very challenging and it is easy to misjudge the range.
 
In the last month or two SCi Magazine had an article about hunting the tiny ten from Craig Boddington. I saw that article as a sign that I need to hunt them :)
 
Does anyone have the website to Nchila/Nkwaji Game Reserve ?

Thank you,

jim

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
