It is always nice to see a kid get lucky. Pretty much ruins them for life though because they think they should all come easy! ha.
Anyway best of luck on the KUDU. They are gorgeous animals.

Just curious. What's a free hunt to Africa cost these days?

Wow, congratulations. Hope you guys have a great trip. What a great father/son experience.

The trip is valued at 7500.00 I will need to get us airfare and pay for a few more animals.Covers lodging,food and guide for two people plus a credit towards animals we would like to hunt.The lodge looks amazing and some great trophy's live on this place.The hunt is with hartzview safaris in south africa.Hope to have some great pic's when we get back in aug to post for all to see.This should be so much fun as my son is just getting hooked on the outdoors.I hope my son will get his first animal with his bow when there to.

Congrat's Bill! Me and my wife will be there in July as well. If you haven't already, I would get your airfare asap as prices are going up.
Unfortunately, we are going at the most expensive time!
Good luck and have a great time with your son!
