Which Grand Slam are you speaking of jeepkid?

I would love a Bighorn sheep but it is way out of my price range.

Jim Shockey is the only one I've seen shoot a Bongo. Looks like a pretty difficult hunt.

Yep, one of the hardest hunts there is. I know a guy that got one and it took him 6 safaris before he did at $40K a pop. To say bongo are difficult is an understatement. If you hit a stretch with no rain then it is nearly impossible.

I have a friend that has a full bodied Bongo that he took in his African Game room. They are beautiful animals. I don't know where he took it but from what I have read, they live in the nastiest jungles in Africa where you only see small pieces of their body if you do see one.

Not really a single hunt, but I recall reading an article of a guy who got, or was attempting to get a deer in all fifty states(or maybe just 49?) I've tried to find that article recently and couldn't. But I think it would be a fun lifetime hunting goal. And would give a Hunter a chance to see and hunt all over without breaking the bank as badly as some of these other hunts.

I recall that article also, but I have no idea where I saw it at! Deer in all 50/49 States (or 57 like our President thinks) would be a blast!

Are you thinking of this guy?
