    What did you do with your Cape buffalo skin?

    Outstanding! @PARA45 - exactly what I am trying to avoid. I may end up having it tanned only - and decide what to do this side.

    Loving these ideas and pics! Thank you all! Love the idea of adding a belt too and a tabacco pouch - I’m not a pipe smoker- but…. Would make for an interesting conversation piece I’m also positive the misses wouldn’t say no to a little purse! Thanks for the tips of having it completed there...

    What did you do with your Cape buffalo skin?

    I’m probably getting ahead of myself, as there is no Buffalo in the salt yet, but if all goes well there will be one in July. I will definitely get a euro skull mount done (it’s my personal preference) and I’m wondering what I should do with the skin? I think the one “must do” is a Buffalo...

    Gifts for hunting party

    Correct- maybe a keepsake is a better term for what I am asking. Love the suggestion for the skinners though! On one of my previous hunts, the skinner at camp loved my havalon- so I left that with him + some spare blades. @Mekaniks- lovely knives for sure! Great suggestion!

    Who was looking for Into the Thorns book?

    After unsuccessfully trying to purchase Rare Breeds copy (I was 2nd to reply unfortunately) I managed to call the store and reserve a copy. The gentleman on the phone was a great guy too. The price is a steal for those who have been looking for a copy! Good luck!

    Rifle Import from South Africa

    I actually completed this last year for a similar rifle. Do you have a contact person in SA who currently possesses the rifle? They will be required to start the process on their side? I will PM you the details and costs I incurred as well as who was involved in the entire process.
