Total of eight of us flew to South Africa and landed in Johannesburg & proceeded to fly to Port Elizabeth in the Eastern Cape Province, our host was J.P. Kleinhans of Kleinhans Safaris. We hunted and stalked plains games and two of our party also flew north and scored two lions, it was a fantastic trip and without a doubt presented challenges for all of us involved. Our group took over 50 animals during our stay, my furthest shot was 238 meters and the closest was 48 meters.

I have not yet received all the lion hunt pictures, and was not present during that excitement, however guess what part of the body this is and why my watch was defiled :p

That looks like a set of balls... Did you miss a shot & is that the penalty? Chuckle

Cheers

You are correct on the balls good sir, since I could not attend the hunt I sent something with my friends for good luck, I can honestly say I did not miss any shoots that I took & frankly the Steyr Luxus combination with Hornady 165gr ammunition & S&B optics was a laser combo of accuracy & death...
