Permethrin will last on your clothes for at least a month, thru many washings. Treat your clothes before you leave and bring deet or another topical for your skin. last year in SA I remember having my pants covered in pepper ticks but they were all dead. Did not get a bite.
Hunting water might depend on the circumstance. A river or large body would be different then a pan or small watering hole. I had hunted with an outfitter in Namibia that would not allow hunting watering holes. His thoughts were that since this is an arid country and water could be far and few...
Your view point is possibly based on an anti religious viewpoint, nothing wrong with that. Many (myself included) believe that abortion is the taking of a human life. You seem have negative viewpoint of anything related to faith in god. What is right and true does not change regardless of politics.
AH is a wonderful opportunity for like minded individuals who have both a hunting and conservation approach towards hunting and ethical practices. I like many have a disdain for both politics and politicians. There are many forums that allow for political debate, this would seem to be an area...
Your comment “EVs are here to stay and the future” is what I took exception to. I think this technology has its limits. Burning fossil fuels to make power for this ‘green experiment“ is ludicrous, if the idea is to reduce CO2. EVs would not even exist on an affordable scale if not for government...
How wonderful that you can predict the future. Many other ideas and attempts at replacing the internal combustion engine have come and gone. Maybe one day this will be true, with current technology the EVs are the most polluting and unreliable vehicles on the road. The term “pipe dream” comes to...
Tsetse flies are a precious gift, with out them africa is overrun with livestock. If you can stand the blood loss then you are in wild country. A true wild buffalo hunt requires that these insects be present and if you are willing to tolerate these vampires then you walk the steps of history...
If your baggage has a double zipper use a TSA lock to secure. My Cabelas duffle had this. Since RSA now requires a hard bottom duffle, I bought one from Boyt Harness. This can also have the zipper locked with 2 TSA locks.
Red lead was what we painted the aft end of the ship with after a missle launch burned all the paint off. It was rust proof, I am convinced you could paint salt water with it. California was able to ruin any product that once contained lead and the only way to be guaranteed lead is actually in...
Some before and after pictures of a deers life ending on a high note. Myself and the dog did not participate in the ingredients of the finished product other then eating this smoked culinary delight. Cold smoked and 6 weeks of hanging and turning into a most righteous stick of animal heaven...
WTNR, most people, on this forum would disagree with your ideology, that will not change regardless of how you present your point of view. So obviously you joined this forum for the same reasons that most of us have. I read your response regarding “ your credentials “ as we are all hunters and...
Made ham salad last weekend, country ham, pickles, onions, garlic, celery through the grinder , mayonnaise, mustard, salt and pepper. A most righteousness spread. My wife very much enjoyed it.
Cooking a steak well done is a mental disorder, if you like to eat a steak this way you should seek professional help, there are probably many other things wrong with your life.
I had a similar tasting product in Namibia, “Beefy Bovaril” a salty brown paste that was put on toast. A non-vegetarian version of this Australian wonder spread. Being made from animal parts had an appeal. Without the shedding of blood there is no proper meal.
A 416 Rigby!, we each had 416 Rugers that killed buffalo, now I must also buy a Rigby. I shall show his to my I am sure she will understand. Congrats, do you have a picture.
A speedy and complete recovery Dr. Ray, my father passed away from melanoma and I had one removed 3 years ago. A mole I had all my life turned bad. I get checked twice a year. Thanks for bringing this up.
Welcome, my last trip to Zimbabwe I used 525 DGX on Buffalo and had the beast drop with the first shot. I leaned to far forward and also shed some blood. A marvelous day.

I’ve never had a bad meal in Africa (except buffalo stomach). Which I was advised not to try. Zebra and any antelope is always good eating. But Eland is the finest meat I have ever tried, seasoned and rare it is fantastic. This June I will be hunting in RSA at Kwalata with @Doug3006 he has...
An amazing hunt and a well written account. Very much enjoyed the tale and felt as if I was there with your writing style. I had the pleasure of hunting buffalo and plains game with Allan in the Zambezi valley in 2021.
Myself and @Doug3006 were at the range practicing for our upcoming trip to RSA in June. We had a friend join us who wanted to sight in a red dot he had recently mounted on his turkey gun. He was trying to pattern his shotgun shooting 3.5 12 gauge turkey loads. We had heard about twenty shots...
That is so absolutely untrue. Everyone knows that sometimes older Kudu are propped up with sticks and that sometimes it looks like they have been dead a few days. All the 60”+ Kudus ( one so far) that I have found were that way.
