The missed shot on the Thar Bull went just high. Not surprising at 500 Metres - that is 550 yards, and a long shot for even very experienced hunters. Ballistic calculations are never 100% failsafe at...

A pair of good quality sidecutters or secateurs helps cut the feet off which makes pulling the cape off after gutting a whole world easier.

Great stuff, shoot as many as you can. I can’t stand the things. On top of that, they really are New Zealand’s pinnacle trophy species.
