Thread: My first Zambian Freezer shoot

Bloody nice gun just taking a while to get used to lever action.
Meat does not smell as gamey as our venison but after a week and a half in chiller in started to have it.
Bushbuck was my pick of the 3.
they tend to live alone and I think browse more among the bush.
Salting and drying the meat works well.
Only work at home during the hottest parts of summer but well be worth it.
My wife told me off on her first fly in trip with me during Feb when I got back to hut empty handed and told that I had sat and watched a hind on first morning of week long hunt then let it move off because I did not want to waste meat.( missed a shot 2 days later and got nothing for whole trip)
