Great adventure, buddy.  That thorn was wicked!
I think I see a rip in the social fabric, Brother can you spare some ammo?

Well Nube looks like you had one hellava time over there, did you save that thorn for a souvenier?
Congrats on a hunt of a lifetime!

That was the best posting of the year Nube !!! Thanks for taking us along on the adventure. Your plan all came together and i can only imagine the years of planning you have done.
Is all your taxidermy work going to be done back here at home ?
Great field pics !! How much sampling of the game you killed was there, if so what was your Favourite..

Congrats on your successful hunt.

That’s quite the trip you had nube I would sure like to know if that was factory Federal 375 ammo you used?  If it was that’s some of the best stuff you can get the primer is meant for Africa and you cannot buy the primers as components it has an extra-long flame for the temperatures over there.  Also buy chance do you know how fast the solids were going 300gr I assume.
