    Question for the European Pig Hunters

    I was on a driven boar hunt in Czech last December. A couple of remarkably small piglets tore past at one stage. Then there were the yearlings. Come to think of it I remember some tiny ones the year previously. So yes, I reckon they are capable of breeding twice a year.

    Your best hunts/trips?

    Last year 2025 I went to Namibia with two guys who had never hunted in Africa before. The good rains of the last couple of years have led to an abundance of game on farms. I was able to arrange a management package with a PH/outfit/farmer I had hunted with a few times prior to Covid. One of...

    Ethiopian Airlines - Anxiety in Addis Abada

    Actually the camp rifles were crap ! At least Hendrick has bought 3 Steyr rifles in 30-06 as of last year. Might visit him again this year.
