Very nice. I didn’t know they would carve the skulls like that. Really like the carved warthog.

I am no longer good in the sun/ heat. I had what I thought was the perfect wide brim, breathable hat, but left the dang thing at security at JNB. I have not been able to find any current production hats like it, but I think tag had something I might settle for. In the heat I got by with a mesh...

Man I hope an offer like this is still available when I get my s together. Hope to see some trip reports!

Prayers for Michael and his family. Praying for full and speedy recovery ❤️‍

Wide for the foreseeable future!

Your right about Kenmore not being a good spot for this meet up, but in case anyone is interested, you can sort of use sticks on the member side. Shots are limited to 100 yards if you stand on the platform or you can position yourself in between the built in benchrest for a very unnaturally...

I had a friend that (moved away) always spoke highly of that range. Never been there myself. What is the yardage there? I am a member at Kenmore, but 300 yard max and (understandably) very safety conscious. Think 375 h&h is about the upper limit.

I live near Seattle, so not a lot of great range options up this way. A get together sometime sound like a nice idea though.

I could not see myself making an initial shot with 375 H&H, at game, that far, but yes, I suspect I would have confidence, so long as conditions were reasonable. Glass is clear enough and reticle simplifies both close range and longer shots. I have read and participated in similar discussions...

Very fine set up, in both form and function! My first safari was next-door to where your headed in MOZ, (shot a red duiker near and had lunch with Jaco's crew in his camp). So, I have an idea what you are in for. Very excited for you. Like you spent decades thinking about it before something...

These are what I wore in the Marine Corps. Available on Amazon.. These are what I assume we were talking about when referring to boot garters/bands, no?

I have only been on one safari, but I wore boot bands the entire time. On my trip, I found Moz. to be Just like all the other dry, brushy places I have been. I brought a pair of safari gaiters, as suggested by outfitter, but ended up giving them to one of my trackers who was using old socks for...

I don't think I'm finding the shoe you're talking about... Closest thing I have come across so far are these.
