Hate to reopen an old Thread. I just bought Boddington On Elephant and found it very entertaining and informative from what little I know of Elephant.

The 1st Disc with all the hunting shots surprised me. I beleive there were 3 hunters with magazine (bolt) rifles and it looked like only one knew what he was doing. The other two took the rifle down to cycle it or fumbled around with follow up shots looking at the rifle. One double rifle hunter forgot he had a second barrel. If I was spending that much money on an Elephant I would be out there practiseing for weeks and months before going. I suppose these guys are too busy earning the coin to get there, to bother with practiseing.

I know very little about Elephant hunting and there also seemed to be a large difference between one shot kills and 'the big fellas' taking multiple hits. Not much in between. Anyone wish to comment on that ?
