Waterbuck of a lifetime. Double kneeling off of Bog Gear. Tried both prone and sitting, but there was too many limbs in the way. Even with double kneeling I had to thread the needle so to speak. Relatively short shot at 176 yards I think (Could be 167). One shot and 40 yards later he was done. Thanks to Thinus En Sanet Steyn (Big Water Safaris) and Philip! Had a hunting/shooting buddy with me too, Todd Fischer. Another very good friend, Darrell Holland had hunted with me on my first day. 7mm Dakota XP-100/180 Grain Berger. It will be measured tomorrow. He weighed 750 pounds.


 
South Africa.
I walked over 14 miles the past two days and the majority of my hunting has been spot and stalk with some still hunting.
No canned hunts or hop out of the truck and shoot here
 
That's a very nice one, congrats.
If you haven't yet be sure to try some biltong, puts our jerky to shame.
 
Congratulations that's a beautiful waterbuck. I saw two very nice ones when I was hunting in Zimbabwe a couple of years ago but never had the opportunity to get after them and have always regretted it. What else is on your hunting List over there?

I ate some throughout the week and really enjoyed it
