    Small game bullet and shot placement

    We used a .223 Rem to take several of the small nocturnal critters (civet, genet, honey badger, springhare, etc) all the way up to springbok using a 55gr soft point, and have little to no hide damage. A 55gr Barnes TSX would probably be an even better choice.

    Eye Protection for Hunting & Shooting

    The wife and I shoot a fair bit of shotguns, primarily sporting clays, with some skeet mixed in. My wife wears prescription Rangers and I wear Pilla Panther X7, we're happy with both. Wear our primarily clay shooting, but also high volume wing shooting. Ton of lens options for each, everyone's...

    Blaser S2 470NE Safari Double Rifle

    Beautiful rifle! If it was right handed I would be all over it. Good luck with the sell.

    Backup Handgun

    I'm sure riflepermits.com can give you the exact requirements, but being a Glock 10MM fan myself, was talking with a PH in camp about this last month, and he said if it had any kind of optic, it was no big deal to get them into RSA.

    Argentina vs Africa

    They're all really nice, and have the same level of service. But San Huberto is my favorite in Cordoba for dove, and San Javier is my favorite in Santa Fe for the mixed bag hunt. We're trying Salamanca next summer, which is up north in Tucuman. You'll be pleased with any of the lodges though.

    Argentina vs Africa

    As has been mentioned, totally different "feel" at each, but the hunting at both keeps drawing us back. What started as a "once in a lifetime" trip to each, has morphed into a bit of an addiction. We just wrapped up our 3rd hunt in RSA, and have our 6th trip to Argentina scheduled for June...

    Black Bear Hunt Recommendations

    I went with NM Hunting Addiction in 2021. These guys are some incredible houndsmen and have lots of bears. https://www.facebook.com/newmexicohunting/ I'm a dog guy and love any kind of hunting which utilizes them.

    Shoulder Mounts vs. Wall Pedestal Mounts

    I much prefer wall pedestals over traditional shoulder mounts, I think they look so much more lifelike and classy.

    SOUTH AFRICA: Getting To Africa

    Great write-up! Brings back many awesome memories from my first trip. Being a fellow bird junkie, I catch myself listening for a hornbill's call anytime I'm watching an African hunting show.. haha

    Question on shoes

    On my hunts in the Limpopo of RSA I've more my Tristed X Driving Mocs, they're super comfortable and the leather/rubber soles are very quiet to walk in. https://twistedx.com/collections/driving-mocs/products/mdm0003 I've since bought some Courteney's that I've wore on quite a few dove hunts...

    Brussel Sprouts recipes

    As others have mentioned, they're great roasted. I like to cut into fourths, coat in olive oil, season with salt,pepper, garlic, roast at 425 for 20 minutes or so. Stir around half way thru. Some of the thin leaves will looked burn but that's the best ones! haha
