Just finished it this morning. A endless assortment good short experiences. Would have loved to spend nights around a fire with the author. I especially enjoyed the chapter on hunting experiences in the Sudan. He had a Robin Hurt story or two that were especially fun. Thanks again for the...

I’m still eyeballing the hole in that gemsboks face. . .

I was thinking chiggars and ticks-glad you clarified to mosquitos. What they lack in size (except in Alaska) they make up for in numbers

I liked your creativity and loved the original title!

Many of you have lever guns in your collections. I also have one but I should have two. Another gun dad gave me was an old nothing special marlin in 30-30. I killed my first deer with that little rifle. Then I had a friend who fell in love with it and I was young and foolish and broke at the...

Nice rifle Rare Breed! Thanks to the op For their patience. I appreciate the scammer input as well. I loved the rifle, just too many in the safe as it is

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Most hunters can’t tell the difference anyhow on the animals you listed. The ph might have management goals they want to fill as well, which is partly why cull hunts are so interesting. I just watched a YouTube video where they shot an OLD gemsbuck cow...

Best of Luck to you! Have a great trip, like the others I look forward to your report with lots of pictures

This is my dad’s old Remington 700 adl in .30-06. Around early 2000 dad loaned it to one of his grandkids for a deer hunt. The kid brought it back and left it leaning against the wall and the entertainment system. I happened to visit one Sunday evening and saw it. Picked it up and opened the...

Welcome to the site-I would chase kudu on every trip! Good luck with your planning and preparation

Welcome sir-I have always wanted to visit the hill country of Texas. Africa is a magical place, more variety than you can imagine and all fascinating. Enjoy the research for your first safari, it’s a big part of the excitement. Don’t get hung up on a few inches of horn-all the kudu are...

Enjoyed the story and video. Any chance you could show us the game your friend took?

This thread went exactly how I expected it to. . . Contact your ph, find out what he recommends, then send us a report and pictures of the animals you take. It is very likely they will all have n entry hole and an exit hole so please wash the blood off before the pix. Best of luck OP

Form and function- My dads old setup-it lovingly stays on my wall

Reminds me of when we were in Las Vegas there was an apparently homeless man in front of Margueritaville with a hand written sign-“need money for strippers and blow.” :LOL:

Definitely suitable but choose your bullet wisely. It is always a good idea to get the ph you chose to recommend or confirm-practice shooting off sticks!

Part of that generation creep you are talking about is the change brought about by lifestyle and living conditions. (Economics?) Many kids today don’t even have lawns to mow. My mower is a push style, no power assist and we have a big lawn. I was lucky to grow up on a farm. We raised and...

The guy dressed in black in that electric car video has worse Luck than Pierre!

Every one of my kids have been different and hunt or shoot for different reasons. I have guided just enough to believe most kids get to hunt too early-they don’t appreciate the challenge and they don’t understand about irreversibly taking a life. This morning my son who just turned 10 got...

Amazon, eBay and Abe’s all have it, but very Limited (in the US). Blackbeards is also an interesting read. I have hunted with G4A several times, enjoyed your recent report.

I found afew copies of this around but they are rare and price reflects that. I think I’ll ask for a copy for Father’s Day. . .

I am also headed to SA in 2025 although lot my first time but I can share in your planning and anticipation. Lots of information to sort through and stories and pix to keep your excitement high. Glad you joined!

Wow that is a really cool find!

It might be your title-it seems to me as though you are wanting to buy some. Maybe try a “for sale” title and see if that changes the interest level. Or maybe I don’t read good

Good Morning Chris, welcome to AH.com

I have a pair of Ariat round toe that I wear for concerts and rodeos, other appropriate occasions. Have worn them for casual horse rides but my wife that gave them to me gets mad when I do. I wear kennetrek service boots at work. They are great but bottom heavy. I just bought a pair of their...

Definitely e mail Barnes-IF they have data they are good to share it

Welcome back. I’ve missed you

The creedmoor, prc, saum, the wby and the noslers-faster, faster , farther, farther! And now they come pre threaded for a suppressor! I like what was said about the practical calibers since 1930-very much agree even tho I have fallen into the traps more than once

I chose the .375 wby over the rum specifically so I could load my own for precision OR just use .375 h&h in a pinch. This cape eland with hand loaded 235 tsx. The .375’s are a wonderful family if your find a good one.

I’ve eaten a 4h pig or two, and that is a darn fine way to get started-In life and in this story! Please continue sir. . .

Welcome from Utah. I look forward to a report on your hunt when you get home-

according to Dr. Kevin Robertson “SCI recognizes five subspecies of greater kudu in its record books.” One of those subspecies is the cape kudu- When I saw your photo I immediately thought, not lesser kudu but very Likely cape kudu.

Going to break in his 7x57 Mauser with some core lokt ammo, gonna take some north forks to Africa. . . would like to see it with a scope-I’m getting older too, open sights aren’t the same as they used to be :ROFLMAO:

What dates did you get?

Perfect shot 2 hardcover is over 100 pages longer than perfect shot 1. Some of it is word for word verbatim. 2 covers multiple additional species such as a full chapter on roan and a chapter by Peter Flack covering bongo just to point out two as examples. Also many more high quality and...

I don’t have any complaints about 3.5’s from a 12 gauge, steel or otherwise. I had a 10 gauge BPS a long time ago and it was expensive to feed and heavy to boot. I use a different set up for turkeys but still can’t justify a 10’guage for that either. If I had that side by side I would...

Love your long and detailed reports. Excited for this adventure! Glad you made it home safe, I was not aware that Ethiopia was so tempestuous these days

My 2018 east cape bull My brother's bull from that year on its way off the mountain

East cape bull from 2022.

Sent you a pm as well samson7x

Pc3-I sent you a pm

Yes these are cape kudu and their property holdings aptly described as “kudu heaven.” Drop Wik a pm or WhatsApp and when he isn’t out with clients he will return a message. Worth a look at their website as well

It’s called “Forensic Files” in the states. Showing that her teeth had indeed been through a wood chipper was sure evidence that she was dead, even without a complete corpse. I believe it was the first murder conviction without a dead body in Connecticut.-Helle Crafts was her name
