My point wasn’t about the Middle East and their history, it was more to point out the flaws in the current mentality of war fighting. If we acknowledge sanctuary areas and places our troops can’t pursue, if we create restrictive fire areas because we’re afraid of collateral damage and civilian...

Grenada wasn’t exactly a war, it was more a military conflict.

The US hasn’t fought a war to win since 1945. If the handcuffs were removed; Karen sitting on her couch watching the news or the spineless government official who’s never dodged a punch let along bullets and bombs didn’t get to have an opinion I feel you’re looking at completely different results.

Vita Dart is a dart that contains nutrients but doesn’t tranquillize or immobilize the animal. Essentially what was happening was there were Outfitters who were darting the same Rhinos over and over without reason to generate revenue. The idea being that only a licensed veterinarian (has the...

You’re 100% correct and it’s crossed my mind as well. Sometime I wish I had more vacation days

If it’s a 3rd Party UPS/FedEx location they aren’t allowed to take in firearms. It has something to do with the storage of them throughout the day until pick-up. You can lie to them or just drop it off, but know if the gun gets lost or damaged they will use your drop off location as a way to get...

Didn’t take it as such was just trying to add some clarity because of some earlier comments about PH quality. I believe they Zambian trained PH’s need a higher percentage of approvals from other Zambian PH’s than Zim requires.

From talking to a couple of outfitters, I believe part of that is by design from PGOAZ. They don’t necessarily want to keep the business small and competition out, they want to make sure their PH’s and Outfitters are quality.

Congratulations on a great hunt and memories that will last your daughter a lifetime. I agree with @Sabre prices in Africa are climbing significantly from Pre-COVID to present. I’m sure some of this is inflation, but some of it is also supply in demand and South Africa learning what costs are...

I agree and disagree. I understand the cycles, and seasons of hunting/marketing/holidays and take that into consideration. I know there are a lot of tire kickers. It’s a frustration of mine because my personal opinion is time is one of the only finite things in the world. We can’t get it back...

If that’s a new gun and not on consignment, Tony isn’t going to come off that much regardless of the offer

Like several others on AH serving in the military did a number on my hearing. My entire career, enlistment to retirement was spent during GWOT. Lots of bangs and booms, and you can’t exactly call a timeout to put in ear plugs. I understand exactly what you’re going through, I got hearing aids...

Take an uber or Heathrow Express into the city. Go light on the carry-on so you don’t have much to clear security on the way back in, or carry around in London. I budgeted 3 hours to clear security upon re-entry and we needed less than an hour. I’d budget for 2 hours if doing it again. The...

Here’s of few of the scenarios I can think of on “How” 1) Outfitter learns during the hunt and at the conclusion hits you with a giant bill (day rates, and full trophy fees) on top of what you paid to DU and demands it paid prior to you departing. Can he refuse to drop you off at the airport...

I’ve hunted with Chris, and know him very well. For New Mexico and Landowner Tags he’s a great option. He also outfits in Southern Colorado but my preference there would be @Scott CWO Another option in New Mexico is Jeff Lester of Hunt Hard Outfitters. He guides in the Gila Units so expect a...
