It's not pulling up. I thought it was Brian one of the other guys is with us that has been hunting We just got word that there is a kudu down and is probably the most iconic animal in Afro when you're talking about planes game they call them the gray ghosts because they're very elusive They found one that was a next-generation kudu, and it was a nice one apparently and it's down And I've never seen one up close you have shot That's the first animal you ever got in Africa so Huge achievement probably one of the hardest animals to kill will a bow like out there in the world But we're about to see one up close So I wanted to start you guys off today with a little something something. We're going elk hunting by the way this year I'm going with Rob. I told him I would go if he went dove hunting with me One day one day he'll go dove hunting with me one day We're driving around We ran into a bunch of elan bunch of black wildebeest and just kept trucking saw a few kudu female We were driving for a while and hadn't seen anything and then Ricardo Said that he saw a very nice bull with deep curls And we all took a look at it and decided That we needed to shoot it from right there not even try with a stock because they said you know once a ghost Yeah, once you see a bull like that you may never see one again if you pass it Patrick just said that's the biggest bull He's ever seen down really Does that make you feel that's awesome? That's awesome Room right there is why he comes with Africa why you come with Patrick That right Patrick Shameless plug right there. Yeah, buddy right now. We are doing some spotting for some ginsbuck some impalas Round on Rob's hot right now. So He's trying to get a like ginsbuck. It's dead calm today I was really hoping to get the bow out But it's actually so calm That they can they can hear us it'd have to be an incredible circumstance for us to Be able to sling a broad head here today right now. It's morning It's calm and there's some ginsbucks that are kind of they sit on these hillsides and they sun themselves So the tracker right now in our ph or are looking in the spotting scope to see if Any of these are shooters. Hopefully we got to get one down for rob and then this afternoon I'll be hunting as well. So Stay tuned. It's going to be another great day here in South Africa It's been a Tough stock this morning. I'm trying to get One of these ginsbucks down. We've been on Three or four stocks and we've pushed them keep pushing them. They keep packing us conditions. We're super calm this morning, but now Uh, we just had lunch. We came back out and there's a nice little steady wind I think that's going to help us. So we're going to go see what we can go do now And then I'm going to be hunting this evening We got to get rob something first. So We just finished up rob's hunt crazy, huh? We went all over this place and it seriously felt like I was back in New Zealand Hunting goats like just going up and down up and down up and down if you want to see what a ginsbuck is like Rob's channel is linked down below. I've got a story. I haven't really told you guys much about patrick the owner here um the guy that Told me about and then we got to know and we when we came over here with He's been a safari guide for many many many years. He's been a ph They're equivalent to a game warden over here. He's seen a ton of crazy stuff and he's got one amazing story He's got a ton of amazing stories, but I do want to share one thing that is on the internet right now Uh, that is crazy and I want to have him tell it to you and I'm gonna roll some footage when we get back to the lodge Congratulations rob butler Humdinger Then we'll him humdinger days So we're we're here at the lodge right now. We're getting ready to go out again. We've got the awesome fire going patrick's here um He's had he has some incredible stories all these guys do all the ph's do he was actually charged by africa's most dangerous game Would you say most dangerous game or one of definitely top five top three top three this video that we're about to play Kind of explains it all but just set us up here. Well, I think the The main thing was that we were hunting it with a crossbow. We got pretty close to him, but he was lying down and We wanted him you can't really you shouldn't shoot a buffalo with a crossbow lying down so what we what the main ph decided to do was Ask me to go around and get him to stand up And so that he would just see me from afar Fortunately when he did see me he came straight for me and decided to charge they don't normally do that um but I think uh He might have felt a little bit cornered in that and uh didn't like the fact that people were hunting him But a buffalo would normally just normally charge when he is wounded definitely This guy saw me and came for me and I managed to pull a shot off right at the end But it was quite a difficult situation because there were people around shot as he dropped his head and uh shot him in the top of the Then just top of the boss there just in the neck. We recovered the 458 bullet did nothing to him carry them Going flick me with his horn. I remember the horn coming the sharp part of the horn coming past my neck here And it all happened in five seconds. It's one of those things that just everything went wrong and Yeah, luckily he didn't stay and call me because then I probably wouldn't be sitting here today He went straight through turn around. I was rolling on the floor And the other guys managed to shoot him before he came back to finish me off I'm very thankful to be alive today broke my arm Had a bit of bruising on my body And uh, otherwise, yeah, I 99% of the time you wouldn't walk away from something like this. How many lives do you have in in africa here? Yeah, I look like a couple of run-ins with everything seems to want to eat me. Uh, it's africa But I mean also it's safer. I feel that the the dangerous like being in a city To walk in this bush as is is is amazing and to experience the wild animals of africa is Is really really special and I don't think I could live anywhere else I think you got to understand the african bush. You've got to be with someone that knows the african bush And uh, then you'll be fine But yeah, I've had run-ins with lions and elephants and All kinds of things but also as I used to be a game ranger for our national parks And uh, yeah, it happens. Well, we're glad you're here. Yeah, I'm glad to be here as well Look after my family and in case you guys are wondering directly behind patrick's head is the skull of k-puffalo amazing story right there y'all patrick and his his guys they're a great team everything they do is very professional so uh Any wounded animal that we go after it's really controlled. He's got a lot of experience with dangerous games So he knows what he's doing if you guys are Even thinking about going and doing safari hunting and you're like me which my thought concept was like South africa her africa in general. It's I'm gonna get malaria. You know, there's gonna be black mama It's going to be very very challenging. Just like I couldn't picture it. It was just bad I just had all bad thoughts. I'd heard horror stories from rob about these other places This is the right deal right here. We don't have to worry about anything patrick basically Catered to whatever we wanted to do. We gave him a list of animals. We've gone to two different camps Um, and it's very professionally done. We're staying in incredible lodging as you can see just a shout out to him This team if you guys want to want to do it Um, I would definitely recommend him. I'll have his page linked down below where you could go contact him you can speak with him directly and Basically, he'll walk you through like all the different leases Properties that they have that have different types of animals and it's just whatever kind of experience you want to do Like whatever is going to make you happy today is our last day and the experience that I've enjoyed the very very most is Bow hunting there's nothing that gets me going more than bow hunting So I love stocking. It's something that I've picked up in the last couple years doing it. I love to do it Today I'm breaking out my tennis shoes And I'm going super sneaky trying to get uh, at least an impala with a bow We got pretty close to some impalas yesterday with rob On a bow stock and I just was like man. I really want to go do that I've already gotten a nice impala ram But um, I'm going to try to get another one and I think we can sneak up on them There's also a chance at a gim's buck at a water buck possibly We may dip down in some valleys and things like that one thing I need to make sure of Is my bow has been shooting off and I discovered yesterday that my rest Or not my rest, but my sight was a little bit off just from traveling and being bumped around I got the allen wrenches out and I tweaked it and I think it's on right now, but Um, I'm going to say that's part of the reason I made such a bad shot on that first day I've had to like readjust it every time and I finally figured out Uh, which screw was actually loose. We're going to get that dialed in We're going to take a good practice shot here make sure we are uh We go dialed and then we're going to head out into the bush. It's perfect conditions We got just a light wind I've got my sneakers on literally. Let's go make it happen spot and stock with the bow last day in Africa I got a 30 yard shot. That would be so amazing. I made a couple of tweaks here. We should be on like donkey kong I'm okay with it
