    A great gift for a great dad

    There are lots of custom makers to choose from. With that budget you can get some incredible knives.

    Good African Safari Shirt?

    Sounds like me. I have worn Roundhouse overalls for around 13 years except when FRs have been required. I wear old t shirts for work and they get pretty thread bare before I replace them. Long story short, I have overall shaped tan lines on my back haha

    Good African Safari Shirt?

    Gotcha. Just wondered because I’m very certain that’s not a tsetse area which is what the OP is concerned about. Also, if someone is hunting in tsetse areas then they’re probably not too concerned about buying more expensive hunting clothes

    Best watch in the 1000$ range?

    CasiOak! Something to tide me over until I’ve saved up for a mechanical watch that is more robust and rugged than my Longines for every day and work wear.

    That would neat if it could be done but the cost to do so might nullify any savings on the rifle. It may make more sense to find a different rifle that is already set up in accordance with your tastes

    I think that’s a reasonable price here in the states but, like others, I’m not sure about Belgium. I would imagine it could be had for less there. Personally, they’re not for me but it seems everyone who has personal experience with them likes them. If I wanted it I think I would offer them...

    Something I just learned about using my own cell phone in South Africa

    I’m glad it worked for you. I have AT&T and the rate for international use is $10 per day. It was absolutely useless in Namibia last year. I didn’t get a SIM card there so I relied on WiFi and WhatsApp for communication

    Part of it is pretty close to that and I wouldn’t be surprised if I walked past a snake or two. Hard to look for snakes when you’re swatting mosquitoes!

    Hats on safari

    I agree completely: it’s all subjective. To me, these criticisms are no different than it would be to criticize someone for taking a full bag in Tanzania or searching for a hundred pounder in Botswana or a black rhino in Namibia, among other costly pursuits. I for one hope those who can will...

    Hats on safari

    It boggles my mind that someone can take pride in buying absolute garbage and then criticize others for buying something of quality. I think it speaks to certain people’s deep-seated insecurities about their respective tax brackets.

    I’ve only been one time so far and I wore a baseball cap. Next time and any time I go after that I will definitely be wearing a brimmed hat of some sort.

    Some of the huge operators probably do. Probably depends on the state or area. And the fauna

    Snakes!

    It is a little striking isn’t it? If I were of a certain political persuasion I would submit it to an art gallery and make prints of it. Might be a good seller. It definitely could be interpreted in a certain way, especially to the uninformed
