Congrats on a great trip. The big Kudu and the last lion were tremendous. I bet you did not forget to use your rangefinder

I dont know if I'm more jealous about the hunt or that you can afford it.

Ha, thanks man. And believe me I'm broke right now, saved for awhile for that hunt. I need y'all boys to book some more Colorado hunts with me so I can afford the taxidermy work now!

I talked to WartHog Safaris a few years back, and wasn't able to put it together then. I know others that have hunted with them and they are highly recommended. One of these days I will make it over.

Especially with the giraffe gonna break the bank I'm doing my own taxidermy work on everything, it's really not to bad. The giraffe form is around $850, tanning is around $2,500 to $3,500. It's an expense for sure but well worth it in my opinion.

How were the Lion hunts done? Don't know the exact details but from my understanding they cut a fresh track and started walking. I think the big lion they tracked on foot for 6-8miles
