Life is an adventure! You're living it with outstanding stories to tell you'll never regret. My stroke in 2020 and subsequent full recovery taught me this. Life is an adventure...live it! And you did and will continue to I'm sure. Great detailed story and pictures! Thank you very much...

After extensive research in the 90's, I purchased a 340 Wtherby Magnum in the Mark V Euro. Had Answer Products strip it down, cryogenically treat the 26" barrel and restock it in a synthetic, After installing a muzzle brake and a special recoil pad, this rifle not only had the recoil of a 270...

I agree with Inline6. Try to control your mind from buying new gear you don't need or will only use in Africa. Save that money for paying additional trophy fees for other animals you couldn't resist hunting, ie..." a Kudu". You , however, won't regret shooting a Kudu on this trip ever! Have a...

Rocket! As I work in my office, I look at my 375-pound Wild Russian Boar mount and my 48-inch-wide Water Buffalo shoulder mount and savor the adrenaline filled days and night of adventure with MG Hunting! I think.... don't forget the write-up on AfricaHunting.com. Rocket...I won't. I will...

Would appreciate any insight into JPH and his history and reputation. Your insight very much appreciated.

A pleasure to have such an audience to help me prep for our upcoming Adventure! If there is a particular tour operator, you'd recommend, please do. +Thank you ALL for your input! Cheers! Herb

I am planning a Cape Buffalo hunt for next spring. My wife a patient observer and very excited for me but...would like to end this trip to Africa with a tour of Victoria Falls. 3 days roughly if that is sufficient. Would any of you suggest one tour operator over another? We previously toured...

Almost every Buffalo hunters dream!

All very artfully exhibited. Proves the human imagination is boundless!

Sow or gelded boar a no brainer! Absolutely delicious! Well done as you know. Just a year ago today returned from a hunt with MG Hunting, Argentina. I killed an old Wild Russian Boar...Pedro reckoned 12-13 years old. At night, run with dogs. 350-400 pounds as stated to me by Pedro. And I've...

On the 340 Weatherby. It hurts to shoot. Hurt equal's flinch. BAD. I had Answer Products install a recoil reduction system on my customized 340 Bee. Synthetic stock, barrel cryogenically treated for accuracy. ETC. P.S... Mark 5 action. Deadly accurate, recoil of a 270. VERY loud. Only...

Thanks Wik! Rest on me! Herb

Wik....my wife and friends possibly coming with us asked for pictures of the lodge and accommodations. Possible? Thanks VM, Herb

Welcome! I'm a relatively new member as well AND...also looking to book a Cape Buffalo Hunt for 2025! I am a NAVY veteran. Thank you for your service. May we both enjoy the hunt of our dreams! Although mine with a 375 HxH Winchester Mod. 70 with a pre-64 action I bought almost 20 years ago...

Consider the possibilities. You're a blessed man. Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee!

Hey Rocket! Good visit with Manuel and Pedro at the Harrisburg show! Showed them pictures of the mounts. Buffalo and Boar mounts excellent! On the wall behind me as I text! Will be wearing MG Hunting chaps and knife in Africa next year! Cheers! Herb

Absolutely! Hope your stay with Red Lion comfortable! We went Sunday to Tuesday and STILL didn't see everything! Had a ball! Like a kid in a candy shoppe! Dreaming of Africa again! I spoke with Dawie as well. Seems a real possibility.

Wl do! Thanks!

Hey Rocket! Trophies delivered! On my wall as I type this! Pablo looks to have done a fine job of taxidermy. Bull and Boar as I remembered them! A fine finish to an epic hunt experience! Story on AH to be written soon. Looking forward to seeing Manuel and Pedro at The Show in Harrisburg...

Thanks VV!

I like how you do business. Also how many AH members think highly of you. 2025 is when I can do this trip. April or October. 2, maybe three hunters and 4 observers. Wives and 1 child. Any other details appreciated. 2 of us hunting have previously hunted Africa. Thanks! Herb

Nice Buff MontanaPat! Bet The Story even better!

As previously mentioned on this thread...book at a local Inn that provides transport to and from the show. Red Lion Hotel a good place to start. Mitigates parking and getting to and from and in the venue. Problems are just solutions hiding in the bush! Thank you MontanaPat and 62flint for your...

Looks like South Africa. 2 other hunters on this trip with 4 observers. First time hunters to Africa number 3 on this trip. One with egg allergies so narrowing down the field quickly. Going in 2025. Mine is the only dangerous game animal sought after.

Nice, Dinsdale! Enough to make my 5 1/2-hour road trip worthwhile! Now for picking an Outfitter for my dream African Dangerous Game hunt! Cape Buffalo.

Absolutely BigGame! Always something to learn! Also never lacks for keeping a hunter or fisherman entertained! Have fun!

Absolutely Rocket! Hanging them on the wall today! Looking good ! Story and pics to come this coming week! Herb Johnson

Been there twice in last 4 years. I stay at the Red Lion Inn nearby. Breakfast included $129.00 plus tax. 2 queen beds. Clean, comfortable and they shuttle bus you for free to and from the show. Very pleasant Inn and easy to work with the staff. Some very fine outfitters from Africa and...

Hey Rocket! Trophies arrived by truck this morning! All arrived safe and sound. Pablo did a fine job of taxidermy on both my Boar and Water Buffalo! Also received back hide of boar with tail attached! Outstanding! Add to that the yard- long tail and 2 Rear (?) partial legs with huge hooves...

Mssrs Coetzee.... I am planning a Cape Buffalo hunt for April of 2025. 6 others in my party will also consider this but probably looking at plains game as 3 of 6 first timers. If I elect the 1x1 Cape Buffalo package at $10,000, what additional expenses can I expect with this package? Thank...

Hey Rocket! Trophy delivery scheduled for next Thursday. Should have a reply shortly thereafter! Good to hear all's well. Please tell Manuel and Pedro I'll bring 8"x10" pictures of my Wild Boar and Water Buffalo. The Water Buffalo picture has you,Pedro,the gaucho and me behind the Buffalo...
