Mark told me a story about how the kudu got the blaze on his face. Apparently the old time Zulus tell the story and it's been retold for a long time....a very long time.

When God made the kudu out of clay, as he did with all the animals, he held the kudu by the muzzle and then blew the breath of life into it.  Where gods fingers were left a white blaze.  

A touching story and one I'm glad he shared.

Congrats, Chief! It looks like you had a great time. I am heading over in a couple weeks for my first African adventure and can't wait.

This has been a great read.  I really like the "in progress" reports... sort of like reading a man's journal.  Thanks for sharing!

This was the first time I have had the opportunity to read this. Excellent story and I would think that others would appreciate reading about your trip.

Unless I missed it, how about some equipment spec: bow, arrow weight, broadhead...Thanks
