Depending on where I'm at, what I'm doing, and what's handiest, available, or offered. High test only: (regular, no diet or flavored) Hot Days: Sweet plain Ice Tea home made or Arizona, Power Ade/Gator Ade, Deer Park Spring Water, Coke, Mtn Dew, and Pepsi and pretty much in that order. Cold...

I know what you mean. And I haven't seen my taxidermy and shipping bills yet.:A Wacko::E Excited::E Nail Biter::S Eek:

Good question to ask your outfitter when vetting.

There is quite a bit of difference between drinking coffee or any other non alcoholic beverage and/or eating and using a cell phone while driving. People drinking non alcoholic beverages and/or eating are not...: 1. ....distracted trying to read a label the very second they put their vehicle...

It depends on the choosen photo. In the photos I usually select, the PH(s) and/or tracker(s) and/or skinner(s) are in the photo with me. The people in the photo adds more perspective to the size of the animal. Plus having others in the photo is a reminder of who, when, where, and how that animal...

Yeap....I had to look....she is wearing sunglasses. Oh, her grip on the racket. I think her grip might be a bit too firm and her T-shirt is a size too big. I'll take two for the team by volunteering to help her out of her T-shirt and shrink it using the hot water setting, while supporting her...

:unsure:....I'll play nice nice in discibing a fateful typical night in the military so I don't get ran off the forum for obscenity.:ROFLMAO: There is a funny story behind my comment. My experience; I was just there when the situation occurred....I can neither confirm nor deny that...

Finishing up today. So far this week. Roughly 300+ rounds of 30-06 and 50+ rounds of 22 Hornet.

I can agree on why you hate package hunts, only because have ran into a very few outfitters that don’t want to work with their clients especially when special permits and licenses have to be purchased in advance. However, these outfitters are crossed off my list early in my vetting stage should...

I like the buffets. 1 restaurant [country], multiple varieties of food [locations, outfitters and species] at an affordable price [more bang for the buck/bull/ram, culls with the savings on airfare and seat class]. Since most hunts are scheduled 1 to 3 years in advance. There's time to look...

Not a beauty nor a beast. Just a simple work horse truck gun. T/C Encore Pro Hunter in 30-06. The sun shield on the scope is so I don't misplace and does make for some conversation. It was gun cleaning time after some sighting in at the range. The other rifle is my Mossberg Patriot in 30-06

That firing pin blowing out, found on the shooting table, could definitely had made your Hunt from Hell a lot worse. This outfitter is now suspect in my book. Hope you can get things settled to a mutual satisfaction and that you advise us on the forum who your outfitter/PH was.

Long over due. A shout out to Emma, Michael and the rest of the crew at Gracy Travel for assisting in making my flight itinerary and the services Gracy Travel provided on my most recent trip to South Africa. Gracy Travel is a definite "will use again" travel agency. Again my utmost Thank you...

Glad your Eye is okay and things didn't really go sideways with more serious injuries when your rifle blew up. That's unusual for an RSA outfitter or PH not to have multiple concessions to hunt. Just curious: Did the outfitter or PH give you any reason why they didn't want to hunt a different...
