Nice markings on the skin however.

It's now a nice flat skin under the glass on her office desk. I've got to hand it to her, she was a real trooper on that trip.

On another day, she and her PH were on foot trying to stalk a Waterbuck when they heard a snort behind them. They slowly turned around and came face to face with a White Rhino bull that was about twenty yards away. No convenient trees nearby either. They froze and didn't move. Kate said she knew it was really serious when her PH slowly and quietly worked the bolt on his rifle to chamber a round. (A Brno 602 in .416 Rigby.) Fortunately, after what she said seemed like a lifetime, the Rhino just turned and trotted back into the bush.

The game farm was about 18,000 acres in size. There were a total of nine White Rhino on the property. (We were just hunting plains game.)

As for me, I didn't have any "exciting adventures" on that trip. Personally, I'm kind of glad I didn't!

We hunted with Mabelingwane Safaris in the northern part of the Limpopo Province. I also hunted with Mabelingwane, on the same property, in 2002 and 2005. Here's a photo I took last August (2005) of one of the Rhino on the property.

Cheers,
