Favourite Big Game Animal


Recommended Posts

So I am from South Africa so we dont have bears, or wolves or something like that, but what is your favourite big game animal to hunt?? Mine is by far the black death...nothing beats that stare he gives you when he is 30meters away and see you...you just know it just got real...snorting and shaking his head...what a feeling

How would you know? The same way the antis know what we do is I suppose. On a thread about big game hunting, try showing a bit of respect eh.

Has anyone stopped to consider, maybe we view the big 5 (or 8 ?) differently as we don't have them in our country. I was once told I was wrong for shooting rabbits in the numbers I did, by a shoo

The biggest game I've hunted is fallow buck, which is decidedly 'medium game' in comparison! LOL

 

Given the opportunity I'd love to hunt Cape Buffalo with rifle and Leopard with hounds in Africa and Bear, Elk and Sheep with bow in the N.America.

 

Please share more, Savanna! Very few big game hunters frequent this corner of the internet.

I have never hunted outside of Africa, but I have to say, elk is definitely on my to do list...and red deer...I am not much of a bow hunter, but I have guided clients who used bows and we had some great hunts walk and stalking buffalo...

Couldn't pay me enough to shoot an elephant,hardly fecking sporting is it.....

Do some research on elephants

Have you seen a wild elephant.?

There a real problem in some areas. a pest and need to be culled if the numbers allow

And there incredibly tough to hunt not a walk in the park by any means

I have his 3 DVD boxset superslam of north American species,everything from white-tail to polar bear with a bow,my missus goes out when I put it on as I don't utter a sound when its playing its that good,the discs or cover don't tell you the format to be honest,looking forward to the African one popping through the letter-box.

Halo Dan, it the one in the picture is a 375h&h but I also shoot a 470ne...it helps a bit for the big stuff...and yes Elephant is a hard hunt, walking miles and miles just to get to that lone bull, big tusker, but the age is not right, so you have to let him go...
