My first kudu
Hi guys
I went hunting on the 4th of july at Bedford Eastern Cape. Where i shot my first kudu it measured in at 43 inches. What size is know the be a trophy in the Eastern Cape. I shot it with my .308 mauser with 150gr bullets. It's a new rifle that was made for me and this is my first buck with it. It came trotting threw at about 250m and i shot it a bit high with my first shot, but got it good in the neck with the second one while it was running away at about the same distance. What do you think a kudu this size will weigh as we didn'Attachment 4841t get a chance to weigh it
