I just returned home from my leopard hunt in Zimbabwe with Leloma African Hunting Safaris, which I booked thru Discount Africa Hunts. We hunted in the Save Valley Conservancy. This was my second trip for leopard, my first trip to Mozambique in 2019 was unsuccessful. Once I arrived we set 4 baits with Zebra and ended up with hits on three of them. I shot my cat on day 8 but it was actually 5 hunting days. I saw a lot of game in the area including Buffalo, elephant, & lion. This was a huge deal for me and an end of a long quest getting my leopard as it completed my Big 5/ Dangerous 7.

I used a PSE Carbon Mach 1 bow at 70#’s. Easton FMJ Injexion arrows with Spitfire Maxx head 1 3/4” cut all at around 500 grains. We built a tree blind and I shot him out of that. He went approximately 70-80 yds after the shot
 
Oh man, wow! Congratulations on a successful hunt, and with a bow. How far was the shot? Don't be shy, give us some more details of the hunt. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:
