Hunting Trip 14 - 19 June 2011 - Pics incl
Herewith some mouthwatering pics of our trip 14 - 19 June 2011.
4 days, 3 rifles = 1 Eland bul, 4 x Gemsbok, 8 Impala and 6 Wharties
Day 1 and this was my first hunt with my own .303 since SAPS decided in May that it was ok for me to have a rifle
(Lee Enfield .303 with Nikon 3-9 x 40)
Just one more so you can seen my new baby a bit better :cheers:
My dad with his first Gemsie (Lee Enfield .308 Indian Model billiant rifle)
Johan with his Gemsie (with my Lee Enfield .303)
Ian my little brother and Gawie his buddy both with their Gemsies (Dad's .308)
Ian - This bull was 110kg carcas (BIIIG Gemsie)
Gawie
I got another Impala ram
These 2 x wharties and 2 x impala eaves were taken all 4 within 45min an amazing afternoon, we couldnt believe our luck. 2 wharties and second eave was mine, Marius (Bruno .308) got the big eave on the side. Three of the 4 were neck shots
One more Whartie for Marius
All and all a great week with friends and family.
PS Ill have to get pics of the other Wharties and Eland from Marius to post.

Mark, ek en ma sukkel nog om laas jaar se Eland op te eet, so ons het meestal vir pelle gejag. Varkies is vir Salamis
Andre, altyd lekker om tyd in die bosveld te spandeer!

Nice Henk .... still have a very soft spot for the old Lee Enfield .303 Pretty decent bag you guys got there!
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Thanks Andy, I have no complaints about the Lee Enfield .303, must say arguably the rifle that took the most game in Africa in the last century or 2.

Ja, because there wasn't much else available, or limited supply as by comparison to the a Lee Enfield. Nonetheless, there's a lot of guys out there that still use them ... especially the 'older' blokes. A pretty popular rifle, even by today's standards. I have a .303 but prefer my .308 from an accuracy point of view. Older bro also has a .303 that he still uses from time to time but prefers his 30.06.Hilux01 wrote:Thanks Andy, I have no complaints about the Lee Enfield .303, must say arguably the rifle that took the most game in Africa in the last century or 2.

Dankie manne,
Kon Saterdag darem weer in die veld wees, n rooibok rammetjie en blesbok huis toe gebring, vir nog so bietjie biltong.
Was net by Groblersdal op Marula Lodge
