Allright - Weidmannsheil - tell us more please!




Not realy much to tell actually, i went for a six day hunt and shot warthog, impala, wildebeast and mountain reedbuck. As trofe the reedbuck was probably the best one but the wildebeast was for sure the best hunt. We stalked him untill we were only about 25-30m from a herd of perhaps 10-15 animals and one of them did the mistake to step out and stare at us in an angle. As this was in dense busch and the others was barely seen thru it and there was a small gap to get a shot at him i just had to take it. It was i real thrill to hear them frust only some meters away and nowing that they new we was looking at them. On the shot he emediatly jumpt with a curwed back streight into the busch so i had to run forward a couple meters to get a new shot at him (as i missed of course as the only ting i saw was his upper 1/4 and running full speed 50m into the busch not mentioning my skills). Still running and reloading i saw him about 70m away but as not the ph or i could be sure it was the right one i wasnt allowed to take the shot nor was i wary ceen to make a mistake either. After 5 sekunds it was gone and there was silence but the ph told me he tought he heard it drop. Now the funny thing after about 3 meters from where the shot struk him there was no tracks and no blood, so i realy started to question where the shot took. A small road run across about 60-70m in the direction where he stod and there was no tracks either crossing or along it. After some 30 minutes the tracker found a puddle, some 10cm across of blood, on the other side of the road but still no tracks. The after another 15 minutes (at this point it felt as it had past several hours) there was a shout and the tracker had found him. In total he had probably only run about 120-130meters from the shot that had hit him streight into the front leg and kept going in an angle missing his hart and hitting his lung and into the "gras stummach". The bullit had left a 15mm hole right into him from witch he had blead only a couple of drops. This is why i love the animals, they are probably the closest thing i will ever come to a buffalo.
