A BIG SHOOT
GOOD BAG BY ALL BLACKS Special to Press Association. . (Received 6th July, 12.45 p.m.) KIMBERLEY, sth July. Yesterday the New Zealanders took part in a buck shoot on an estate about 27 miles from Bloemfontcin. Many old local hunters said that tho shoot was one of the finest they had ever attended. About 70 took part, and a bag of 54 was secured, including buck, springbok, blesbok, and wildebeeste, all beasts shot by the All Blacks. A real South African picnic meal, with typical dishes, was enjoyed by the party at a picturesque spot at the foot of a kopje sheltered by tall rocks and shaded by trees. During the meal wildebeeste appeared not far away, and many of the party left their lunch to stalk the animals. Members of the team regard the shoot as easily the best experience they have had since they reached South Africa. ' " .' .
