Looked at 6 herds of elephants with 1 tuskless that was too small. Saw buffalo, kudu, eland, sable, duiker, grysbok, bushbuck and warthog.
 

 

 
Ele 1
Looked at 5 herds, saw 3 tuskless, 2 with babies and shot the third from 20 yards with frontal brain shot. Spent the rest of the day recovering.
 

 

 
Ele 2

Drove allot in beautiful hills and saw 9 species of game and lots of elephants. At about 4 we bumped a group with a very old tuskless, which Norbert shot quartering on brain shot at 16 yards. She didn't go down and Buzz backed up with a trophy bonded sledge hammer from a 416.

The shot was on one shoulder and was found on the opposite rib cage, however the bullet was seriously deformed.

 

We then tracked her and Norbert side brained her at 15 yards. Norberts bullet the super penetrator is one of the best bullets I have witnessed on penetration on elephant.

Client Comments

My 15th hunt with Buzz was a successful one, as were all the previous ones with him.
Makuti, a new area for me, provided excellent hunting, shot 2 tuskless in 3 days. Thanks Buzz for the guidance.
