Known Hunting Accomplishments?
THE GRAND SLAM
Spain’s Grand Slam of Spanish Ibex is a well known accomplishment. We are getting this in the new reserve Cuatro Colinas.

THE BIG 5
Africa’s Big 5 is another well known hunting accomplishment. We currently have 2 out of the 5 in game.

What other hunting accomplishments are pursued out their in the hunting world? I’m curious to hear/read about it.

The entire prospect of that North American Super Slam is insane and I love it.

That's one of those things where it will take a lifetime to do. There's only ten or eleven people who've done it. And it would cost a small fortune in travel fees, license fees, etc. Not to mention the costs of guides if you go that route.

And the whole fact that some of these animals are so difficult to hunt that you may never actually get one.

There is a fantastic book written by one man who has done it. It's a bit pricy, but very well written and super interesting. Absolutely recommend it.
