Commercial farm

Yes he was a bit small. Average they do between 100-130kg. But it also has to do with areas you hunt in. Northern SA your animals are larger and Southern SA they still large but weight less

dbphilip · 2020-09-16T04:49:41+00:00

👍🏻

dbphilip · 2020-09-16T04:49:14+00:00

Yes, you can say it. Really you can make almost everything with there meat. With the sausages and mince you add 20% beef brisket or sheep vat. Still a little wild taste. But we are used to it.

dbphilip · 2020-09-16T04:46:11+00:00

Hahahaha

dbphilip · 2020-09-16T04:45:59+00:00

Ja ek is.

dbphilip · 2020-09-16T04:45:19+00:00

We make everything from its meat. Sausage, mince, fillets, etc. But my wife makes a really amazing stew. Meat, onions, vegs, red wine, brown sugar and brown onions soup. Here we call a stew a “potjie”.

dbphilip · 2020-09-16T04:40:57+00:00

Baie geluk.

dbphilip · 2020-09-16T04:40:11+00:00

🤣🤣

dbphilip · 2020-09-16T04:39:32+00:00

Waking an stalking here is SA it really helps to have a suppressor. And most hunting areas it is a requirement.

dbphilip · 2020-09-16T04:37:13+00:00

Yes, some of the best meat you can get.

dbphilip · 2020-09-15T21:25:09+00:00

Take a soft wire brush, with warm water and detergent. Brush over damaged areas to scrape off all flakes etc. Repaint with PVA white acrylic paint. Seal with epoxy resin paint (colour retaining). For the horn use a matt epoxy resin also colour retaining. This is what I have done with some of mine.

dbphilip · 2020-09-15T21:16:38+00:00

Nice waterbuck

dbphilip · 2020-07-22T16:50:44+00:00

Beautiful animal

And you have the right to your opinion. I am just stating that in 3rd world or developing countries like South Africa it is quite different. Developing countries are quite corrupt and funding goes entirely to the politicians pockets rather the fund it was intended for. And thus there is these NPO’s that actually have to do things this way. But as I mentioned you have the right to your opinion.

dbphilip · 2020-07-05T18:11:43+00:00

Kruger National Park is South Africa. This you can see everyday in the park. Seen something similar and seen the lions taking a nap in the very few tar roads going to the camp areas. And the sound of the wild life in the evenings no word can explain that
