What a wonderful couple of days spent with these fine Gentlemen! We, TC and myself tracked multiple bulls including a herd which we saw many bulls but not what we were looking for. We eventually found two bull early one morning near Mururu camp which had laid up across the river called Munyimo. We tracked these bulls for 4hrs and eventually found them on top of a ridge rested up in the shade. Both bulls were great trophies! One in particular was exceptional and fitted the criteria of what we were looking for in a proper duggaboy! We butt scooched to within 35yards and both bills bulls stood up to feed. The bull which TC got eventually presented an opportunity to shoot which TC put in an amazing shot. The bull ran about 100yards and fell over. What a great hunt and an awesome bull!!! For the next few days we looked for kudu, walking into multiple springs covering some beautiful territory and we did see kudu but not what we wanted. We ended up on the last day of the safari on the mighty Zambezi river with TC, J and his dad with Gareth and myself fishing. Such a great hunt and hope to see these fine Gentlemen back soon! Cheers Boys and thanks again.
