Baboon – Gudfinnur Kristjansson

Another one of those “the opportunity just presented itself”. I had no plans to hunt a Baboon but as we were out stalking one day, we spotted a large male Baboon in a cliff face about 100meter up. Well we slowly stalked closer to the cliff and the Baboon just watched us and stayed in place. Then when my PH thought we couldn’t get any closer he told me to get the sights on the Baboon. As I was probably shooting 70 degrees upwards, it was not easy to get into position but then crosshairs settled on the Baboon, the trigger got squeezed and the Baboon had its last fall.
