Hippo require accurate bullet placement, brain only. Even a heart shot hippo MAY make it to the water. Then the wait and work begins.
Rhino, I assume you are going to have a lot of conversation with the owner/PH. I am sure he will give you his very strong opinion of caliber and bullet.

Croc and hippo can be added as a seperate hunt.
Something that I have posted in the past. We do not hunt tuskless.
The reason why the difference in permit cost for this area is $1,000.00. We hunt in some pretty heavy bush. If by chance the ele has the tiniest bit of ivory showing you just...

Mana pools is Magic. Liesl and myself spent over 2 months in Mana pools. Every day was a new adventure, some I would rather not relive. I would have my ashes dumped there except for the corrugated road.

Hi IVW,
You are 100% right. Legal, but no special permits being issued.
I would like to say strange things take place here.
Sometimes I think a tv series could be made about some of the going on, hosted by William Shatner.
Hi,

The area covers about 50Ks x 50Ks
Exportable trophy bulls.
Do not expect for a ele with big ivory.
We are providing reasonably priced hunts, not vacations. If the PH determines it is a representative of the area bull. You...
Tiger Fishing is best when the month has a “R” in it.
If our clients finish early we offer them Vic Falls. Since none of our clients are interested in expensive helicopter rides or bungie jumping.
One to two days is the longest any of them want to visit the falls.
Airport very gun friendly. 20...
We offer 10 day exportable bull elephant, with quality Zimbabwe PHs. Most of bulls are in the 20 to 30lb class.
If elephant hunting still exists 20 yrs from now the cost of permits will be so high it will take elephant hunting out of most peoples reach.
Hunt when you can and give up something...
I need the client ready with the rifle PH is judging trophy in the case of leopard. I do have a Leica monocular that does not have a range finder that they can use.

Shortly begore I became ill I fecifed we needed a dedicated night vision for leopard and hyena. I had to choose from a rifle that I already had.
Now for the thermal night vision I realized i had the following requirement.
1. Quality since it is how we make a living it had to wiork 100% of the...
Very interesting and I assume accurate article.
About 10 years ago a friend asked if I had a replacement for-end standard length. I was not able to find one at areasonable price. His was cracked and I was able to repair. He has passed on so I assume his son has it, I know it was very precious...
You would think that a rifle that costs as much as a 89b does they would include a owners manual. If they do include a manual it will be for a 88b.

You might give Clive Halimore a call.

For the most part Binga elephant are small in stature and ivory,20lb would be bigger than normal.
Right now we have a hunt going on and they are after a very big bull, they have not seen the teeth.

Any particular country your talking about?
In Zim to be able to take a leopard we must do the following if we have quota:
1. Apply for a special permit from ZNP. $100.00
2. Apply for a TR2
3. Obtain a ZNP game ranger @ $50.00
You would be charged at DG rate & defuct plains game hunt.

The African Hunting magazine (Zimbabwe Hunting Mag.) was a great magazine. No B.S. just good stories and info. I discarded or gave away so many, what I would give for a complete collection.

With a .22 rifle under our immediate control, we will supervise two of our trackers to shoot a few rds. at a iron gong target. This does not constitute a high stress moving target engaged in killing a PH.
I realize most of the example of incident take place in RSA. Different world from Zim...
PH decides who has a rifle. No way legal or not would I give any of my current trackers a rifle. 2 yrs prison for client 2 yrs prison for tracker.
If I was in a similar situation with a handicapped client, my learner with his own rifle would have been assigned to watch over client at all times...
Croc offer one of the toughest shots of any african game, unless you are hunting in a game pan.
You must make a perfect bullseye on your first shot every time. Please allow your PH to assist with an anchoring shot (shoulder). Do not hesitate to put a second or even third shot into its brain...
Hi Bowjijohn,
What your simulating is a long shot on a croc. If your off just a hair the croc is probably going in the water. This is going to cost the hunter after airfare, daily fee, trophy fee etc $10,000. I own a .300 WM M-70 that might pull it off, maybe.
At this time we have monster...
