Phfat
Have not hunted in about 8 years due to arthritis. Inactivity has made me fat and lazy. That's why an outfitter would need supreme patience to put up with me. Late starts, leisurely hunts, lots of good food, and an unforgettable camp experience would make me happy. Actually shooting something would be icing on the cake.

- My favorite African trophies
- Cape Buffalo, Greater Kudu, Oryx, one of those giant Elands that look as big as a moose.
- My preferred weapon(s)
- To be decided. I am leaning towards a 458 Winchester. I have watched too many buffalo shot with a .375 that just made the animal angry and consequently dangerous, and resulted in long, difficult tracking episodes.

- Bow
