This is cattle country. Most of the area we hunted on was huge cattle ranches of 40-60,000 hectares (100,000 acres and more)

I shot a baboon off of the left side of this boulder mass at the top of a kopje or hill. I shot off shooting sticks at a range of 280 yards. The baboon dropped to the shot.

Martin, Matt and I head up the hill to find the baboon. We found a good blood trail, but ran out of light before we found the carcass.
