Very nice, your son's smile is priceless!

Thx, (it's Anne isn't it ?). You picked up on the most important part of the hunt.

Cam was 14yo at the time. Old enough to not want to listen to his father but old ebough to listen to someone. That someone was our PH Andrew McLaren, who talked him through the stalk on a Steinbok we spotted the previous evening and then as we watched from afar, let Cam perform the stalk the next morning. Ever so slowly he covering about 200 metres in an hour to get a shot at this older male.

It may sound extreme, but his self confidence and self esteem took a major leap upward from that moment.

Finally getting his trophy back 18 months later cemented that experience with the tangible evidence of what he had done. The inches mean nothing, but the event does. (P.S. Written by a biased father).
