    Read this Elephant Charge

    Well, my 2 cents. I would hope the PH and I had been watching the bull, and he given me the go or no go based on ivory, age, can do better, all the stuff you discuss before moving in close. At this point, if he was determined a shooter, I am cutting lose. If we had determined to pass, I am ready...

    on a lighter note...

    All time favorite sayings, used quite often by me to the point of overuse: How you hanging? Like a hair in a biscuit. Hotter than a four balled Tomcat on a tin roof. Slicker than snot on a door knob. If it ain’t spiders, it’s piss ants.

    Seeing all these pics and familiar places is making me relive every day of my safari with Kemp Safaris last year. What an awesome time and a just fabulous outfit with beautiful properties and game. You can not beat Kemp if you are wanting an extraordinary couple of weeks night hunting!

    Canvas Is King

    One of the few things that I actually am excited about at the end of a safari is returning to my own bed. So I relate to what @RedLeg stated. No camping unless hunting or fishing.

    Just had some friends fly internationally out of the US. They found out a few days before the flight they had to have Covid test prior to arriving in country, I think it was Barbados. No problem. They went and got rapid test, all were negative. Day before flight, find out country will not accept...

    Some things can never be bettered?

    I remember as a young man the surplus “Jeep in a crate” were advertised for sale in the back of Popular Mechanics Magazine. Man I wish I had possessed the means and foresight to order a bakers dozen! LOL

    Dr. Howard's Safari Room

    As I’ve read this, and other “recent” articles you posted from the past(my childhood), it pains me to see how far we have come. What a time it was when you could pick up any periodical in a Doctor’s office, at another’s home, or off the magazine rack and find an article about hunting abroad, or...

    Would you like a Cigar?

    Sorrry to hear that as I have really put this one on my repeat hit list. If I find a similar experience I will let you know. Hopefully, it was just an anomaly in the ones your cigar store got, and not the standard.

    COVID-19 Coronavirus UPDATES, BANS, CLOSURES, ADVISORY, etc.

    All threads or posts that stay active for a long period of time seem to go through a metamorphosis. Normally ending up with a bunch of memes or jokes, an off topic argument, or somebody getting butt hurt. Just an observation.

    Dennis, thanks for the post. Just one simple question, and not trying to be a smart ass at all. Can you just post your preferred method of communication for those of us who are still your valued customers? Is it a phone call, email, PM, USPS? Certain times or days of the week? In all...

    That is a HUGE assumption that any one of these rioters has the faintest idea why the Berlin Wall was built in the first place , nor why tearing it down was an even more of a historical event.

    Von Gruff Knives

    Christmas in July. I just received my Von Gruff knives here in Tennessee. After handling them like a new born baby, complete with oohs and aahs from the Mrs, the chef knife has taken its rightful place in the front of the kitchen knife drawer, while the skinner has already found its way onto my...

    ZAMBIA: Zambezi Valley Hunt In Zambia With Shamwari Safaris

    So glad someone is hunting. With the travel bans and no new hunt reports, I have almost bought 12 new guns, built a trophy room, bought reloading equipment for calibers I don’t even own, and sent back all my mounts to be remounted. And that is just since Friday.[emoji23]

    on a lighter note...

    I remember sitting next to my father in church. When my anxious legs would start vibrating the pew, his hand turned into a pair of flesh ripping vice-grips. Not sure which was harder. To stop fidgeting or not scream out in pain. I think I might have opted for the spatula!

    Would you like a Cigar?

    Yikes. Only thing worse is 92 with about 100% humidity. I am soaked from the yard work. Got the big ass fan trying to cool me down before an afternoon Archetype.

    Would you like a Cigar?

    Pretty much set on the firearms. Would need another gun safe if I got one more. Closets full. But I am in the mood for a double, so I’ll put you down for blame and one box if it comes to fruition. [emoji23]

    Would you like a Cigar?

    So it just got too far to walk to the dead room(ie trophy room) where my humidors are, so the boxes just keep hanging out on the table heading out to the porch. Bad form I know. You’ll notice a good supply of My Father, and my newest acquisitions, Avo Syncro, and a box of Archetypes. Let the...

    Airline Choices

    Highly, highly recommend the Business Class Phillip. It is worth every dollar, and jet lag is a thing of the past. In fact I used to try and get back from Africa on a Friday to have time to regroup and adjust. Now I just spend more time in Africa and get back whatever day works best, and still...

    Would you like a Cigar?

    T-9 and T-52 are both great smokes. A little pricey, but Drew Estates was proving they could do more than just infused cigars, and I think they knocked the Liga Privada line out of the park!

    Would you like a Cigar?

    I have had to branch out on my list of online vendors as the holes in specific cigar lines are more numerous than holes in Swiss cheese. That being said, this thread has been a wealth of information for new cigars to try, and new places to buy. Thanks to all who have posted your fav’s and where...
