So sorry to hear of Dave,s passing. I have some Crocs that I will be using in Namibia this year along with Cleavers. I only delt with Dave once but he was a gentleman and so helpful. Markcz

I use 180,s Nosler Partitions for Africa. Here in the UK I use 165 grn Sierra Gamekings for Fallow, Sika and Reds. Markcz

I have been on 3 driven Moose and Boar hunts in Estonia. The ethos is just the same as in Finland, all the hunts are local chaps and the whole community gets involved it is 99% meat and the rest trophy. On our last 2 day hunt there we had 8 moose and 11 boar. Super organised and very...

if I win the lottery I will buy this beauty! Markcz

Took this chap last weekend. 150 yrds 243 win. The bullet lodged just under the skin on the opposite shoulder. Markcz

Thank you all for your input and advise. I dont think it is going to be possible for the obvious reason of the distance. It just means that I will have to revisit Namibia at at a later date. Markcz

Probably a long shot but does anyone know who would do hippo hunts in Namibia? We are all hunting with Khomas but one guy wants a Hippo so if it could within a sensible distance of them it would be good. Markcz

We once did a 200 bird pheasant shoot in Poland, It took the second drive to work out that all the birds were brought out in cages and literally thrown from the cages. Appalling. Mark CZ

I love your rifles, cant beat a CZ.

The Lords have talked out the proposed legislation to ban bringing home trophies from hunts. This is great news for the animals of Africa but I suspect the next government will try to resurrect it. MarkCZ

It would have to be 10 days spike camp in Namibia with my son. Kudu, Eland and Oryx. Rifle would be my CZ550 in 30-06 with 180 grain Nosler partitions. 2 bottles of my favourite malt whisky MarkCZ

I have just received my 2 pack of Cleaver broadheads. I ordered them on 30th August and they dropped on my door step today. That is U.S. to U.K. in 10 days Great service from Dave Bittles and wait for this he included a pack of "Crocs" gratis, I will certainly be using them next June in Namibia...

Here in the UK, avoid like the plague British Airways . Markcz

No I am not, I have never heard of them. But then being in the UK we have limited archery knowledge. I will stick with what I have thanks. Markcz

I think I am good to go. finally after much question and answers from all you guys on here this will be my arrow for Namibia. Easton FMJ 30 inch, blazer vanes, 85 grain Ethics inserts with collars . Broadheads will be 125 grain Magnus Stingers and Crimson Talon Cleaver. The Stingers shoot...

Hi mate, SD is the "Stalking Directory" here in the UK. A forum and there are some very helpful and experienced folks on it but there are also some argumentative and ill informed so and so,s. Markcz

By the way , welcome to a great forum/web site. It has been a great help to me especiely if you move to the dark side (bow hunting) Also no where near as many dick heads as SD. Markcz

Hi James, I replied to your post on the SD. Your rifles etc. go on the plane at Heathrow and you wont see them till you get to Windhoek. Enjoy. Markcz

Thank you for that. I have just found a UK supplier stocking them. Markcz

I cant find an email address for this company, can you help please? i hope they will ship to the UK. Markcz

I now have Ethics outserts 85 grain looks good. I have 125 grain magnus Stingers but I like what I hear about the Montec,s . What is best 2 blade or three.? Markcz

Hi, well done nice animals. Can I ask what was your set up, Bow poundage, arrows, Broadheads etc. Many thanks, MarkCZ

Could you advisee what collars I will need for this set up. Thanks Markcz

Thanks chaps. MarkCZ

I am currently building my arrows for next years trip to Namibia. I have Easton FMJ shafts, 50 grian inserts and 125 grain broadheads. this will give me arrow weight of 535 grains. My question is should I use a broadhead collar and should I go with 75 grain inserts? I and shooting 65 lb bow...

What a great write up. You had a ball. I have followed your journey with great interest as Myself and 7 pals are hunting there this time next year. I am bow hunting the others rifle. So looking forward to it and from what you say I think we have the right place. thanks for all your posts. Markcz

Not England but I found this photo in my laptop. Argyll Scotland, close to Dunoon. The toughest stalking I have ever done. Almost mountain climb.

Was that taken in Sussex?

That,s what I used. No problem Markcz

Make sure you leave some animals for us , we are booked in for June 2024. Are any of your party bow hunting? Markcz

A quick question. How many arrows would one take for 10 days hunting 7 animals. Thanks. Markcz

160 kg boar. Taken in Estonia with my CZ550 30-06, 165 grn Sierra Gameking. This was shot at 200mtrs it was going at a brisk trot. Markcz

Hello guys, it has now been decided that we will hunt with Khomas. I have had conversation with Philip and he can certainly accommodate all our needs. I just need to round em all up now. It was a close call between Eintrach and Khomas but you have to pick one. Thanks for all your input it is...

Yes one and the same

Hello chaps, As the title reads. We are looking for a low fenced outfitter that can cater for 8 guys 2 of whom will be bow hunters. It would need to offer both trophy and management animals. We are going in June next year. Thanks in advanced, Markcz

I have a Kimber in 243, it is a tack driver. I love it. Light to carry and very well balanced. MarkCZ

I can only relate to my own experiences so here goes. I have only hunted one Eland and seen one other Eland hunted. My Eland fell to a 180 grn Partition from a 30-06 and my friends fell to a 160 grn (not sure of make) from a 7-08. his animal dropped after 10 yrds, mine a bit further so I would...

who was it made for and when? Markcz

I have hunted both SA and Namibia. I hunted SA first and very much enjoyed it. Then I went to Namibia, I doubt I will hunt SA again. Paper work for firearms for SA is total ball ache can take hours resulting in missing connecting flights, having to bribe people to do their jobs is not a good...
