Caprivi is a great place to do a proper elephtant hunt, have a great experience, see lots of elephant, and be apart of giving lots of much needed meat to local comunities. Did a 14 ele hunt there in 2016 would love to go back.

My lord what a bull!! True dream bull, congrats to all involved.

Low quality photos but high quality memories

On that first Safari I took both a Mountain Reedbuck and a Common Reedbuck. We used the same tactics for both of these reedbuck and that was to setup and glass. We glassed some valleys for the Common and were glassing some ridges for the Mountian both hunts reminded me of hunting Mule deer in...

The Southern Impala was my second African antelope I was lucky to take on the first safari. I don’t remember how this hunt all unfolded or how many I might have missed beforehand but what I do know is that it’s made a Safari hard to not take the opportunity to take one of these amazing antelope...

Thanks Bruce I grealty appreciate the comment.

That is awesome! Congrats to both of you on that deal, I think in this day in age with people saying we shouldnt be driven by things has took this goal setting away from the younger generation for parents and kids. I like hearing stories like this.

While hunting our Blesbok we never struggled to find them as on these cattle farms they were everywhere however I struggled in making it happen on many opportunities. This was my first big game hunt I had no real-life experience of getting on the animal and making it happen, so a few good...

Thank you Sue!

I’m dying with the dating reference!!

Awesome I’ll be checking this out today!

After the caracal was loaded, we were back off to camp to finish a light breakfast then go to the range to shoot the camp rifles as ours had not arrived with us in Africa. Now I’m not going to lie and say I remember the exact calibers these camp rifles were, but I believe the one I ended up...

I'm a bit young being born in the 90's to have all the cool stories like you all above abut dreaming of a Weatherby but I really enjoyed reading all your comments. I'm not a huge caliber nut and haven’t had any desire to dig into the latest and greatest rounds I’ve learned a lot about them...

Nothing like the anticipation of an upcoming Safari. That sounds like a great family trip to me! Good luck and can’t wait to see pics and read some stories upon your return. Cheers, Mckenzie a guy from Wyoming.

Congrats on being bitten by the most addictive bug you will ever be bitten by... The African bug. I'm another Wyoming guy who has become an addict of Africa. Been in love with the country for nearly 20 years and will hit 20 safaris this year. It truly is the greatest hunting destination on...

We had just began to sit down for breakfast that first morning and I’m not even sure if the full group was at the table yet from sorting what gear had arrived out from the missing bags, long days of travel, and late night we had just had but I was just about to indulge in a bowl of cornflakes...

Glad you liked that episode with Dylan, I had so much fun talking with him. That is so awesome that you took your boys over to experience it I am sure they had a blast and learned so much more. I think out of traveling the world I have far out learned what they teach you in school about just...

about to add another story to it! thanks for the support!

haha Thanks appreciate the supportive comment.

cant wait to see the report once you return!

just getting caught up on this. Really enjoying it. What a beautiful Meneliks you took, they are one of my favorite bushbuck species. As for the miss hap on the Hog I feel for you it’s tough but again that’s why we call it hunting mistakes are made in the heat of the moment. Forest hogs are...

Sorry for your loss Toby!

Nice post, I think its great for people to see the cost of things as in a form of bill someone just got. I just did a Safari cost break down video on youtube and used pricing from Bager and Splitting imagne for my refrences they do a top shelf job and are great to workwith.

Thanks for the comment, I will be adding to this thread to get this story told over the next few days!

Congrats!!

nice old bull, its crazy to see the effects of poaching even on the private land and game farms in South Africa.

Cape would seem corect depenidng on where you were at. If the Outfittter said not greatern than yes would be Cape Kudu. Lesser kudu are only hunted in Tanzania and Ethiopia.

Congrats!

Whatba beauty of a bull!

We had arrived very late into Port Elizabeth and upon arriving we come to find that all our rifles and a bag each are still in Atlanta. Luckily, we had enough bags to have clothing to hunt in. (This was when we packed the kitchen sink and didn’t know how a Safari camp worked. Will talk about...

It all started in 2006 I believe it was March or even February and I was at a log home show with my parents in Idaho. Now I was 10 years old and did enjoy seeing some of the cool log home booths but again being 10 I’d imagine I was getting bored until I ran across a booth of a South African...

Beauty of a lesser Ethiopia or TNZ? I took one in Ethiopia in 2012 would like to hunt one in TNZ

Great way to start the safari bug off right there! couldnt disagree with that statement, if kudu are on license and available I will always have one on my list as well. Thanks for sharing!

Great bull love the ivory tips, thanks for sharing!

So cool thanks for sharing!!

Flights are booked and the excitement level is at a 10! Super excited to be spending a good bit of time later this year on my favorite continent. I will be traveling from (KNZ) KwaZulu Natal to the Northern Cape and then up to Limpopo with lots of bouncing around in each area. I will be...
