First sitatunga slam in 45 years, and I don't know if it's maybe the only one?! Got one today! Unbelievable, had like two seconds to make the shot. Got him, a huge sitatunga. It'll be right at the world record. There is one at 31 that is questionable; the real world record is the same size as mine, about 27 inches long. Mine is 26 3/4 on the longer horn with 8 inches bases. Oh my God, 50 yards off-hand, just up and boom. I didn't even wait. Nobody even saw it except for me. It had been bedded, stood up, and I made the shot.

We had the baying dogs in the jungle, but they were far away and not on this sitatunga's track at all. It was just serendipity that where we walked into the jungle to wait, that sitatunga happened to be bedded, and I spotted him before he ran.

Corey actually got the first Ssese Island sitatunga taken in more than 40 years by sport hunters, during the third day of our hunt. He had seen two shooter sitatunga bulls earlier in the hunt, but they were too far off for an ethical shot. Then this one happened by, but it only had three legs, and was missing another foot because of poachers' snares. Corey did the ethical thing and shot it, but he'll never enter it in a record-book, even though it's very big.

I saw one male sitatunga the same day Corey got his, but it was an immature male, and I didn't shoot. This is a great hunt, great people, great operation. Now I have all four sitatunga species, which is a huge accomplishment for me personally, as these are such challenging, sought-after species. I'm on the top of the world ... and now headed home for a few days.
