The Savé has excellent buffalo hunting. Tons of buffalo and very good quality. Which Savé block will you be on and who is your PH?

I did this almost exact itinerary last year and it was easy. We overnighted at City Lodge and Bruce from Gracy Travel handled the gun logistics. Five nights at the Victoria Falls Hotel and they kept my rifles in the hotel vault. We then drove to Bulawayo where I met up with Alan Vincent and we...

The Bass Pro pants are very good for hunting. I have several pairs that I take on safari. Lightweight, quiet, comfortable and they breath well. You can spend a lot more but these are great value and last.

If/when I build another house, I’ll most likely go with 14 foot walls. I definitely won’t go higher than that.

Here is what it looks like with 13’ walls, track lighting, clear cedar ceiling and simple vinyl wall covering in light gray which highlights the animals well. And it’s all supported by 3/4” plywood on 2x6 studs.

This is a good article, balanced for a change. Now I really want to see the documentary.

As much as I’d love to see a Tiger in the wild, there is absolutely no way in hell that there are any Tigers anywhere in Alaska. And if there ever were to be any, they’d never be huntable. The anti’s would have a huge new business opportunity in perpetually litigating Tiger protection...

I had a worse experience with Wyatt than any of you. I hunted in Tanzania in 2023, including taking a leopard, for which I retained SSI to handle the Cites permit. The permit was never coming through and every time I spoke with Wyatt he had a different excuse for why USFWS wasn’t issuing my...

If you have time, consider doing a drift boat fishing trip on the Kenai River, out of Coopers Landing. A buddy and I did a half day float before heading to Illiamna to hunt caribou and it was stellar. All catch & release on the most beautiful rainbows you’ll ever see in your life. We caught...

I think anyone flying through JNB with luggage that zips shut will always be a target. The zipper is always the problem, doesn’t matter how it’s locked. I’m flying through JNB on my way to Beira later this year. Luggage is a bit complicated as our Mozambique charter company only wants...

Congratulations, you had a heck of a good hunt! That Sitatunga is excellent, as is the Red Lechwe. Safe travels homeward…

Those are great boots, I wore that kind of boot for over 30 years while hunting turkeys and around the marsh. Not my size or they’d be sold.

This is a really great package, I don’t recall seeing such good animals all included on a package deal. Fair price too! I hope someone takes advantage of this.

That’s not what I’m finding on American’s website. For SFO-JNB it’s 115,000 miles for economy. SFO-LUN is 80,000 miles for economy. Qatar has not been allowing AAdvantage miles for biz class for a while now as far as I’m aware. I’d love to be wrong so please advise if I’m missing something.

Congratulations, Russell! It was enjoyable following along on other media during the safari, you guys enjoyed a great hunt despite conditions. The lion Tom saw was spectacular. Thanks for the Heads Up about Airlink. Flying them from Beira to Jo’burg in a few months, so glad to know this...
