Most Overrated Hunt and Most Underrated Hunt

Funny I am not much of a dog man but I love stalking whitetail deer. To each their own.


Most underrated in a lot of areas is run and gun turkey hunting.

Most overrated in my opinion is chasing anything with dogs. I like to see animals behaving naturally (as in not chased).

Run and Gun on turkey??

Please do an OP to explain that.

I have hunted turkey in a variety of ways, even by chance, aka dumb luck, walked into them, walked under them while roosting and flushed them trying to slip in on deer.
 
Absolutely. They are extremely challenging in a wild environment. Typical farm sable are born and raised in fairly small enclosures like stock animals before sale and release. They are habituated to humans from their earliest days. Typical small operations purchase three or four bulls. It is why we often see a specific bull advertised available for X dollars. I tend to assume he has a name as well.
Now I don’t care who you are that’s funny!!!!!!!!!!
 
Most overrated are DG hunts in RSA. Listening to those guys at shows one would think they would be the thrill of a lifetime instead of just shooting farm animals.

Most underrated are night hunts for dry land hippo and elephant in full moon. Though not for the faint of heart.

Took a pic the next day of the shot, it was a charge at 15 meters (not the one we were after), .500 MDM did the job.

Why do you say so?
I am asking because after the buffalo hunt in Caprivi, I could see myself hunting buffalo sometime in the future in South Africa.

I just saw Budsgunshop.com has both the guide gun and the African for $1150. FWIW - I bought both and decided to use the Guide gun - I restocked it in a Bell and Carlson stock and I added the Alaska arms floor plate to add a round. I wanted the shorter barrel as I will use a suppressor. I wont go lower than $1100, but I will ship it and no sales tax.

Let me know if you are interested
