I was wondering how many on here have completed any of the African Slams?
Such as the Spiral Horn Slam, Big 7, Tiny 10, etc.
Any advice or tips?
I am starting on the Spiral Horn Slam next May with the 4 available species in SA (bushbuck, eland, kudu and nyala), and will work towards a sitatunga on my next trip. Not sure when or where in the cards I will be able to do bongo and mountain nyala, but it is a dream!
Susan will be going after the Springbok Slam in May (Common, black, white and copper). Recently read about a gold springbok being harvested. Got to check this out more.
Not sure if there is a lechwe slam (red, black and kafue and nile) but am thinking on the next trip to try this in Zambia, or at least the first three. Just not yet sure on where to go for the Nile subspecies, having only just learned that they exist.
