SOUTH AFRICA: Hippopotamus Hunt With Pawprint Safaris 2017

I really like the story and how you kept us going little by little. Sounds like a hell of an adventure and memories to be made. Congrats on it.

Thank you sir. I had a good hunt and I'm looking forward to the next one!
 
Charlie if you had a twin pipe buddy that hippo would have had it. I've always said that's why we all go hunting it's the chance of it either going to plan or not. That's what keeps me on my toes anyhow
 
Great read Charlie - thanks for taking us hunting with you!

I'd take your hunt any day, over a quick trip to the pond to pop a hippo.

I especially liked watching you running from that angry bull!
 
What a great story sir, thank you so much for sharing, oh and making me laugh. Reading about you running away from the p*ssed off Hipo, sounds hysterical after the fact, but I am sure it was all business during that time. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Too bad you couldn't connect, but that is why they call it hunting and not shooting. There is always next time. Good luck to ya, and hope you can make it sooner rather than later. (y)(y)

Thank you both. Hunting is a great joy in my life and sometimes the biggest joy is trying after you fail. There is always next year.
 
Yes sir, you are absolutely right with your statement.
 
Good one Wayne!
 
I've always wanted to hunt hippo on dry ground, now I want to hunt hippo in an urban environment! Lol. MOUT Safari for all the ex-grunts out there.

@norfolk shooter the two pipe option would have been great but @edward hasn't sent me the double yet.
 
You will probably out live me! The grind at Wally World is killing me!

Are you one of those awesome, highly skilled door greeters? [emoji51]

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction.
