I don't know what sounds worse to me. Eating the balls grosses me out but, carrying around a nut sack as a male purse has me grossed out too.. To each his own but, not things that I would do... yuk!! :eek:

Did they make you do that or did they give you the old "it's a hunting custom" wink, wink, nod, nod, followed by a good laugh?

Ya, I'm just not down with that...

im going to carry my toothbrush and toothpaste in it.

and no they didnt make me do it.i find great respect in eating the animals i kill.

eating his balls is of the highest respect i can give him, besides mounting him on my wall forever.

actualy i just like oysters and caught these myself !!

if i wasnt carrying a gun i would not have been at the top of the food chain when confronting him .

Those are some nice animals! That's one of my dreams is to go big game hunting in Africa some day.

What calibre & rifle did you use on the buffalo?

My Kudu again,
notice the ivory tips on the horns.
the older the bull the longer and whiter the tips get.

my Bushbuck

i shot this busbuck at about 250 yards from hill to hill.
if wounded they are known to be extreamly agressive and charge for your
balls or upper thighs.
this was a clean kill.
sorry for the crappy picture its all i have as we got back to camp late and didnt have a camer with us.
the 7foot guy with me is pj a friend of rassies.
jim
duct tape
all my cuffs are taped to keep pepper ticks out.
they went in through pores in clothing.

the karoo

we went to the Karoo Desert to hunt Springbok.
Common , white and black as well as all many other creatures the Karoo had to offer.
we drove into camp which took a long time 16 to 18 hrs from joberg.
everything we ate in camp was home made or grown or killed.
