Hello from TX

Welcome to AH Rhoyland4!
 
Welcome to AH, fellow Texan! I know Boerne well. You'll find tons of info here and lots of great people to answer questions and provide inspiration.

If you'd like to meet in person with a number of African outfitters / ranch owners to ask questions and potentially plan a trip, I recommend that you attend the Texas Trophy Hunters Association Hunter's Extravaganza show in San Antonio August 15-17, 2025. There are usually 10-15 African outfits at those August shows, and that's how I researched and booked my first safari (though it was at the DFW show). Shows like that are one of the few opportunities we have to engage face-to-face with the people you could be hunting with in Africa, plus you might meet some of their clients, too, and hear about their experiences.

Planning a safari is a journey in and of itself, so enjoy it!
 
Welcome to AH! We look forward to you sharing your stories!
 
Thanks everyone for the welcomes! I will start posting some questions soon. I am trying to research and not ask questions that have already been answered.
 
Africa has been in the back of my mind for years, but now I am making it a priority! I am just starting to look at a trip for 2027 for myself and my daughter who will be 17 then. I will be asking lots of questions on different forums soon. Thanks in advance for the wealth of knowledge in this group!

Welcome fellow Texan.
I grew up in Boerne/Fair Oaks area as well.
You are in the right place and on the right track!

Welcome to the forum
 
Welcome aboard. How's your planning coming along?

I am a fellow Texan as well and happy to chat if you haven't picked a destination yet. I have taken my kids all over Africa and can say it's hard to go wrong no matter what you choose to do.

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
