Hi I can vouch for them. Solid outfitter.

Lots of good suggestions. My 2c There is a huge difference between a cow weighing 200kg dressed and a bull 500kg dressed. There are little more fulfilling hunts than shooting the big blue bulls on foot. It is not easy and usually requires a lot of stalking, and is not a given on a 5day hunt...

Good looking pipe!
