What Is This Animal?
Interesting thread indeed. The Afrikaans name (beside waterbok) is kringgatbok. It means ring arse buck. Descriptive enough? Hey Ann, I'm new here, but brave. Here comes: Have you noticed how dull the waterbuck females are in appearance? They look like donkeys. We get that same syndrome...- Lochi

Baboons, warthog, impala!
Lucky me! I spent 2 weekends on a ranch that provides for bow only. Managed to get 3 baboons, 2 impala and a wart hog. Great hides. Drew my bow on waterbuck, bushbuck and wildebeest, but could not afford to release those arrows. Lochi null -

Bowhunting blunders!!!
Experienced in rifle and hundgun hunting, I thought this bow business was going to be a walk in the park. Wrong. Sat in my home made mobile hide for two days before the first opportunity arose (my distance is still very limited). As I was getting onto my knees into drawing position, I farted... -

He got 3, me only 1. Not fair.
Went out calling for jackal on Saturday night, with all the usual paraphinalia (spelling?). Got only 1, with little sleep. My buddie was sitting on his butt at a water hole waiting for wart hog, and shot 3 jackal in broad daylight! That is not fair. http://home.mweb.co.za/ec/econhunt- Lochi

Typhoid
Is that you Rhonda? Or another Rhonda? If that is you, why spook these guys with all these deseases! (Or does that grin say it all?) I don't know what a typhoid is and whether one can sort him out with 375 or heavier, but I have never come across one in the bush. Coming weekend I'll be...- Lochi

trophy hunting
John, I agree strongly with you. Of course I respect the choice of others to do mountings, but to me personally money spent on a trophy means less money to be spent on more hunting. I hunt a helluvalot, so I had to create ways of keeping hunting costs at bay. See my web site with tips of the...- Lochi

Hello from Africa
Sorry guys. Did't notice this low profiled thread, so jumped in at the fire side (didn't get thrown out though!) 53 year old South African with good health, supportive wife, 3 great kids. Done almost all the outdoor things over the years, but lately mostly lots of hunting and the odd spear...
