Mike, That was the only one I had permission from the CFO to mount. Its funny, she is fine with the flat skins, but not mounts. I'm going to try and sneak the Fallow in. :twisted: The Nayala took two years to get to me.

That was the only one I had permission from the CFO to mount.

That's one ahead of what my CFO permits. If she'll support me in the style to which I want to become accustomed, I'll comply.

Thanks for the kind words guys. Of all the animals I have hunted, this is the one that I am the most proud of. He was 29.5 on one side and 29.75 on the other.

Russ - I have to ask....how did you travel to Africa from Hawaii?? I bet it was a LONG trip!! :grin: Folks talk about the long flight from Atlanta to SA or from DC to SA but I bet your trip was a real doozy!
