The Spiral Horns of Kalahari

Ok back to business again, what Karl told us would be the hardest to find a decent one of , was the Eland, so when we saw this nice bull the first morning we did not think twice before we started the hunt.

Eland is a tough animal and using the 8x68S I still had to use a couple of extra shots to finish him of. The trophy measuresd around 34 inches.

Karl and the trackers put a lot of effort in preparing for the photos to get the best possible result.

Dawid, Karl, Ricardo and me

A very impressive animal.

The hoofs, very long due to walking in soft sand all the time.

Then it was time for Kudu, Karl came back to camp, were we were relaxing, after unloading some animalas and told us that he spotted a group of Kudu bulls worth looking at. We drove of and then left the bakkie and started walking, several times we saw the Kudus walking over a dune into the next walley but after 4-5 kilometers we were lucky to get a shot at the most mature bull before they got away. Distance was 240 meters and we were laying down under a tree when they reached a small opening, the bull ran some 40 meters. He measured 52 inches which was a good score in this area.

Me and Karl with the Kudu.

The trophy.
