Blue and Black Wildebeest,Gemsbok, Impala, Sable, and several other African game at the Wilderness Hunting Lodge where we have the HHC. That was the good thing about the exotic ranches. A person might not be able to afford to go to Africa but he could hunt the same animals on many of the exotic ranches for a lot less money.
I met John Taffin on one of the exotic ranches, the Y.O. Ranch at the Celebrity Handgun Hunt many years ago. John had also been to Africa and had taken several animals in Africa like the Eland,Impala, warthog, Zebra
and Gemsbok. Plus quite a few more.

Jim Taylor, having lived in Africa was a fan of Zebra too.

I have to admit I wanted a big Zebra stallion on my first trip to Africa. I got lucky and took a big stud Zebra stallion with my 450 GNR.

And for those that are wondering, John's Contender that he shot his Gemsbok with is in a new fire breathing caliber that put the animal down instantly. If you look closely you can
see the fire coming out the end of the barrel.
