Growing up in Arizona was the perfect setting to learn to hunt. My father has taught me everything I know about the sport and has made it very enjoyable for me. I learned to shoot with dads help when I was two and went on my first hunt when I was eight for Javelina. It was absolutely awesome . Since then I have traveled around the world with my family getting to see many different places and the animals native to those countries. I really like to hunt with a handgun. I find it to be accurate and easy and it is much nicer to my shoulder. The Zebra is my favorite animal that I have taken. I have two and they are just magnificent. I would love to one day take a Hippo. A dangerous hunt but a beautiful critter.

Whitepine, Michigan
Handgun - SCI #9
He was very smart old boy - would not come into any openings, even though it was rut time. He finally made a mistake at 112 yards, shot him through the heart.
East Cape, South Africa
Handgun SCI #1, Overall #4
Käthe won the Handgun Hunter of the year with Safari Club International because he is huge. Also, she got him because she told the guide how to do it!
East Cape, South Africa
Handgun SCI #1
They had watched him for years, would not let anyone shoot him! As we were driving by, Käthe bailed out the offhand side and crawled to a small hill to shoot.
Arizona
Overall #14
#3 largest self guided
#3 taken in Arizona
Natal, South Africa
Handgun 152 Yards
Käthe used a loaner guide, since dad had the regular one with him. He had me shoot the wrong Zebra - this one had a bright red nose that the owner wanted to keep!
Natal, South Africa
Handgun
The guide was looking on one side of the tree and Käthe on the other -she shot the wrong one again! They wanted to breed-in his very unusual spotted hide.
Carrington, North Dakota
Crossbow
We did not understand the anatomy. It took 5 arrows and 5 hours to drop him. His body was smaller than dad's, but his horns were larger!
East Cape, South Africa
Handgun - SCI #1
A violent rain storm blew in just as I was getting ready to shoot him at 179 yards. Hit him in the heart, he turned around and I hit him in the heart again!
East Cape, South Africa
Handgun 184 Yards
This was a relatively close shot for this specie - they usually run when they see you at a 1/2 mile!
Miles City, Montana
Handgun
This was her first handgun animal. She was 13 years old. He was so stinky that she did not want to get close to take a picture.
Arizona
Handgun
Perfect heart shot, but he still came after her when she shot. Leon jumped in front of her and lion diverted.
