I had shot mine from an elevated position a ways away and the bullet went straight thru her heart... but it messed up some of the back strap near entry part, but did not affect either shoulder. I found the round, it was stuck in the opposite side of her hide behind her shoulder. She dropped right there but was kicking around and trying to get up. As I approached I was afraid she was gonna jump up and run, so I shot her in the head like twice. But she still didn't die. I had to shoot her again when directly over her. I wanted to end her suffering as soon as I could. She was remarkably tough and even the heart shot she was still moving around for like 15 mins. I would load a photo of her on the game cart, but I can't figure out how to post pics.

I am here and so far I didn't see anyone in the area I am set up in yesterday or this morning. Definitely alot different than the archery hunt in December. We have heavy fog this morning with very limited visibility, hope that dissipates soon. No matter what, it is still better than being at work!

Well the good news is that I saw some Nilgai this evening, one looked like a young bull and the other was a big blue bull! The bad news is that it was long shot and I completely missed it. The adrenaline got the best of me this time, I should have waited to see if they came in closer. I sure hope I get another chance as one this weekend. Feeling pretty disappointed in myself right now.
