Just got back from Africa
Just got back from a 8 day hunt in South Africa. 4 of us went and couldn't of had a better time. We hunted in the Free State Province for 2 days in the pouring rain, but managed to take some wonderful animals. I completed my springbok slam with the black, copper and white using a Savage Striker in .260 Remington.
