    It has only gotten worse. The things supposedly “smart” people believe to justify the Energy Transition…. Building vast solar and wind fields in South America, that will drive water based electrolysis, to produce green H2. Then finding a fatal source of CO2 to combine it and produce green...

    Fair enough, and I hope I can convince you that my personal persuasions on politics are far closer to yours than you would think. The Biden administration has definitely been detrimental to the energy industry in the US, among many other fields where it has acted like a 5 year old. And also my...

    I do not understand this point. The whole reason of the existence of futures markets is specifically to drive long term investments and bring price stability. "Because the farmer was able to sell 50% of his expected production for next year on the futures market, he was able to purchase today an...

    Hmm... I was contemplating if I should respond to such a superficial remark. But here goes, for what its worth.

    One final rodeo, bolt-action or double rifle for my last big bore thumper?

    @Northern Shooter So first things first, this idea that you will buy “one last one” is ridiculous. This is an addiction. There will be more of them. It never stops. Now that is out of the way, the biggest caliber you currently own is in the 45’s. So I would suggest .470NE (just because of...

    470 NE non solid for elephant?

    This is not optional, you must use a solid. I’m guessing any standup ph whom you ask to use softs, of any form, on elephant, will cancel your safari immediately.

    Hats on safari

    I have a Tilley Airflo, keeps the top of my ears and my neck out of the overhead sun when trying to walk down elephant or eland. Crushable, washable, a bit more breathable than most, and covering all that is necessary. Heavy duty cotton resists most thorns and the cord inside allows you to put...

    Latvia recommendations…

    In September i’d look at red stag there. Should coincide with the rut. Moose is also possible, but know they will likely not be of the size like in other locations. Roebuck I like to hunt in spring/summer.
