    Boat Based Mountain Goat Hunt

    Did one of these hunts years ago with Bruce Parker in SE Alaska in November. During this time, the coats are awesome, they are rutting and down low because of the snow accumulation. When I say low, I am talking only 100-300 yards from the beach.

    Things to Consider for the Cost of your Safari?!?!

    Spouse tax...holy cow..that hilarious....how true! Could you imagine if we all actually told our wives the true and total costs? We would probably all be more broke than we already are due to this obsession.

    Crocodile Hunting Special Mozambique

    I wish you never posted this offer. I have been to Africa 2X in a year but looks like 2015 could be 3X. Could you send me a contract that lists all terms, costs, additional animal trophy fees along with reference information from a couple of American hunters that hunted with you specifically...

    AGENT: WARNING About Northwoods Adventures

    Buyer must always beware. However, I find it ( as a lifetime SCI member) unconscionable that they would actually charge you $500.00 to do an inquiry into a dispute with one of its advertisers. Something advertised in the SCI mag or newsletter adds credibility that you are dealing with a...

    Any info on Newfounldland moose hunting

    Definitely lots of Moose and yes, a 40 would be a good one and a 50 amazing but not unheard of. Your best bet is to go around the first week of October when the calling is working best. Make sure you go into a fly in camp where the remoteness keeps the hunter pressure low. Anything near any...

    Scope for M70 .416 Rem

    Both make great glass and will last a lifetime. The Swarovski will have better light gathering at dawn and dusk. However, this is not very important as you would never be shooting a buffalo at first light as you would be looking for spoor and tracking and would almost always be on your way...

    Opinion on Nikon optics

    Nikon glass is pretty clear and reasonable in cost. You pay the extra money on the high end stuff because of the high quality light transmission at first and last light.

    CZ 550 vs Winchester model 70 (416 Rigby)

    I have only owned one CZ but it would not feed and would jam. I sent it Back and they made it right. Their warranty anD CS is really good. However, why do they keep allowing rifles to leave their factory that don't work? They obviously have a quality control problem. You would think they...

    Serval hunts

    Serval is typically only a target of opportunity with better chances at night. If you truly want to target it, you must hunt them with dogs in the agricultural areas of the Free State. I booked through Wade Derby at Crosshair Consulting with Kei River Safaris.

    What is the worst rifle you have ever owned?

    CZ American 22 hornet. This gun was pretty accurate but would not feed properly with several factory type rounds. It jammed every time I cycled the bolt after the first shot. This happened on day one! You would think they would have some sort of quality control and testing before CZ would...

    Tripod in Africa

    I would take my own sticks if possible. My experience in Africa has been that their sticks go from good to really bad. Plus, practicing with your own setup give you a great deal of familiarity that can really make a huge difference in your confidence level and correct shot placement. I use a...

    Muntjac and Chinese Water Deer hunt wanted in 2014

    Try Mark Howard, stalking in England. His outfit is superb! A little known fact is that Roe, Munty and Cwd is very inexpensive over there and extremely successful. It is very possible to get into very high metal class, especially the CWD.

    SOUTH AFRICA: Need Reference on Blaauwkrantz Safaris

    These guys have great hunting for small antelopes, kudu and bushbuck. I had a very successful hunt with them. One thing that you should know is that there lodge is right off a highway and you hear trucks barreling down each night...takes away from the true African experience
