    Hats on safari

    I’m no Hemingway but I bought that hat six months ago as motivation to shoot my buff on my recent trip. As you can see the hat did its job.

    275 Rigby Takedown

    I hate you cause I 'aint you! Very beautiful rifle and I for reasons I cant explain love takedown firearms. Similar to my love of Targa roof vehicles they are the best. Great part of a collection.

    Dallas Safari Club Convention Summary

    I know nothing about HSC but the Atlanta move to the Gentile southern gentlemen hunter does not seem to translate to African Hunter. I was disappointed with the weather and I know DSC could not control that. It just seems to make more sense to move back to Texas. That said I do intend to go...

    United playing musical flights

    I fly in 43 days and do have Jennifer working in it but just want a sanity check. I did buy my flights earliest as I could and because of that my BOS-EWR leg has moved a few time but checked today for excitement and now United wants me to go BOS-IAD-EWR-JNB. Again having Jennifer working on...

    Let’s be honest….accuracy off the sticks

    Based on advice here and other sites I have been practicing off of sticks. I am getting decent and my PH has liked my photos over whats app. The shoots below are at 200 yards off of the tripod sticks in the second picture. Practice getting on the sticks and multiple shots. Overall about 1.5 MOA...
