It's that time of year. Let's see those kills.

After an unsuccessful first outing my son who is 6 managed to take his very first gopher ( no prairie dogs here ) he was very pleased and we threw it and a few others in a pail to feed to a a fox and her kits (3(20200506_113020.jpg that she is raising under a garden shed in our friends Yard on the land we were hunting. The picture speaks for itself, I think I may have been even more excited Nd proud than he was.

More fish! These rod and reel guys like to slime themselves after a good fight!
All caught memorial weekend!

With all this Covid BS 3 of my hunts that I was really looking forward to fell through but we managed to get in one weekend trip to our farm that we hunt on every year in the Freestate.

I shot this nice Blesbuck with my 6SLR and 108gr ELD-M a tad over 650m, dropped on the spot when the ELD went through both shoulders, on the way down the mountain we got on to a big heard of Redhartbees and my shooting buddy shot this nice bull with his 6Dasher and a 105gr RDF at 450m, tight behind the shoulder and the bull dropped within 10 yards (he also shot a Cow at 337 with the same setup).

My son shot 3 Blesbuck, one at 630 (6SLR and 108gr ELD), one at 420 (243AI and 87gr Vmax) and one at 330 (243AI and 87gr Vmax).

Capt. Good shooting all around. Your choice of rifle cartridges and bullets just goes to prove most Americans and Europeans going on plains game hunts in Africa are WAAAAY overgunned. :p
