Hartebeest or Hellbeast to me!

Hartebeest have been a difficult target for me. First hunt in 2002 in South Africa, chased them for days. Got within 15 yards of a sleeping herd, but they always got away. Then in Namibia shooting a borrowed rifle, lost my only wounded animal in Africa. Looked for it for days. Was pleased though to find a very small amount of blood in hundreds of metres of grassland, so my tracking skills weren't too bad.

Ended up taking this beast later on a flat run taking off. With Karl Stumpfe's 8x68S Mauser rifle.






Some live ones.
