This video proves just how tough these African animals are! Although we initially thought this Impala ram was dead, he had other ideas when I grabbed his horns lesson learnt about making 120% sure the animal is dead! I put the full stalk part in to show just how the whole hunt down

Yep that’s why I have seen every PH I’ve ever hunted with walk up and stick a rifle barrel or shooting stick in his eye!
Yeah this buck especially bamboozled me, since I did touch his eye with my rifle the first time and he did not react. But yeah it was a close call and I'm just glad no-one got hurt.

Very unusual I should think. On the one hand I would say just nerves that didn't know it was over, but the way it tried to stand and then back up was pretty weird.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
