Back from South Africa
      22/07/05 08:42 AM

Hey Guys,
I have returned from my first Safari. I booked with Hannes Els of Limcroma Safaris (www.limcroma.com)and I couldn't be more pleased!

I took 10 different animals including an Impala that went over 28" in length on each horn. We roughly scored it in SCI and it is about the 3rd. largest ever taken. The other animals taken were as follows: another Impala, Wildebeest, Red Hartebeest, Waterbuck, Kudu, Gemsbok, Eland, Zebra and an old bull Giraffe that was almost black in color. All were trophy book quality animals.

South Africa is an amazing place. The quality, quantity and variety of animals are incredible. I used my Remington 700 in .375 H&H with Leupold 1.5-6 LPS scope. I found this the perfect caliber and combination for all the animals I took. All were one-shot kills at distances from about 70 to 200 yards. Once I get some time and I figure it out, I will try and post some pictures.

Bwana
