Nyakasanga is a great place! Have fun!

Sorry for your loss and prayers for you and your family.

250/day plus editing fees is what I’m paying. Much cheaper than taxidermy if you are past that point in your hunting career.

Nice rifle, where are you hunting in Mozambique?

Congrats on a great hunt!

Ditto on this set up! With that said Mark Biggerstaff has a great deal on the Z8i 1x8 which would be a great option as well.

Happy Easter fellas!!!

T&P to you and your family

When some of the PH’s in Africa wake up, it will be interesting to know the answer regarding the mark up of trophy fees. It has been my understanding that most of the profit is indeed in those day rates.

If you post the trophy fees and charter costs then people could get a better idea of the all in expense on this hunt.

Which sling do you guys like the best from there? The leather or cotton?

Mark hand delivered a pair of NL pure 10x32 to me at DSC. I’ve made a few purchases from Mark. He always makes the buying process easy.

Great to see you over here as well.

I got lucky on my first safari and found a last minute off 3 months in advance in a prime area. My second safari was booked a year in advance and the outfitter had his concession My first safari was in 2022 and booked 3 months in advance through CMS. They had an opening come available in...

Langerman and Paul Stone Safaris are partners in Niassa.

I’m a lefty and bought a right handed double, that being said I’ve hunted with a right handled rifle all of my life so I don’t know the difference. I chose to get the right handed version because there is a much better resale market.

Heck of a hunt Scott! Congrats on the great Lion.

Go to DSC and meet everyone in person since it is your first safari. It’s only 3 weeks away. You will be spending a lot of time with your PH so make sure they are someone that you like.

I might go to Namibia and hunt with Drikus Swanepoel. He has taken some monster ele in his concession the last couple of years.

DSC is the only one I have attended because I live in Dallas. With that said, I think Nashville would definitely be a more fun atmosphere. Dallas is very laid back.

I ran into a situation just this year where a PH sold me a lion and leopard hunt for July in the Luangwa Valley. 30 days before I was to leave I received a Whats App message that there was an issue and my hunt would need to be postponed. Then the PH thinks it would be a good idea to send me...

I wouldn’t consider Nyakasanga a place with a lot of plains game. I would however consider the plains game to be of high quality.

Qatar from DFW, but use a travel service. It’s well worth the extra money when traveling with a gun.

Coutada 9 in Mozambique is supposedly as good as it gets for big pigs.

As are the hunting concessions that border Mana Pools

Done

Maven is a direct to consumer brand that offers a very high end product at a very reasonable price.

Haha I was willing to let you have it. I had put in a max bid yesterday and you almost hit it. If you want it I’ll let you have it. I just didn’t want a good deal to go by the way side.

Absolutely, a new stock will most likely go on first.

I think you guys did start a bidding war I could have gotten it much cheaper

Just bought another scope and binoculars from Mark. Very good guy to work with.

Zambia July 15th-August 5th: Lion and leopard

For those that don’t live in the mountains a treadmill at 8 incline will provide an adequate challenge.

Great video, thanks for sharing.

I sent Trophy Shippers an email 7 days ago without a response. That’s good enough for me to realize they won’t be getting my business. That is terrible for someone in the service industry that is trying to make the process easy for clients or potential clients.

It’s a minimal expense in comparison to everything else associated with a hunt. Plus a tip of any amount helps any PH, owner or not tremendously. Remember these guys have several months of downtime each year where they aren’t generating revenue.

I used Henry on my way back home from Zim at the end of August. I had a layoff in Joberg and someone from his staff met me as I deboarded and assisted with the process. I highly recommend his services.

Thanks for the recommendations. I appreciate all of the help.

Lion, leopard, buff and plains game.

Hello all, I am looking for a free range full bag safari for my 40th bday next year in either Zambia or Tanzania. Having a wide variety of plains game such as sable and roan are important. Recommendations from people that has personal experience in these areas with top notch operation would be...

One more vote for CMS. I’ll be hunting with them the second half of August.
