100 pounder taken in Zimbabwe
      25/10/07 01:42 PM



From an email from John Barth 24/10/2007.

The above true 100 pounder was taken by a Russian client with Zim outfitter and PH Thys De Vries.

"The right tusk was 82 inches in length and 21 inches in circumference and weighed out at 101.2 pounds. The left tusk was 78 inches in length and 21 inches in circumference and weighs out at 95 pounds.

The concession where the elephant was shot borders the Hwange National Park. In the past decade this concession and safari outfitter has produced several bulls with ivory in the 70+, 80+ and 90+ pound range, and now a legitimate 100 pounder. "

"The hunter who took this hundred pounder was going to take 2 elephant, but after this bull decided he had been blessed and finished his hunt early. "


***

Well done to the client and Thys De Vries. The De Vries boys continue to produce the big tuskers time and time again.
