    Hunting Trophy Export From Namibia

    The foundation for high quality taxidermy is a high quality tan properly neutralized and a good shaving job. Most of the better commercial tannery's in the US have a turn around time of 4-8 months unless paying rush order pricing. I am currently running about 9- 11 months out on customer ready...

    Dangerous Game Follow Up - Client and Professional Hunter roles?

    I talked to several Ph's prior to my buffalo hunt and it was obvious that one was terrified of buffalo and two others said they would only shoot if someone was in immediate danger. I went with one of the later and had a great hunt with a PH who respected buffalo but wasn't eager to shoot my buffalo.

    African summer hunts?

    Have bowhunted SA and Namibia 5 times in Oct. and it was very good, hot in Namibia once, 112 F but hunting was great. Going on a night baited predator hunt in Mid April this year and will see how it is then. I've never been in the green season and wanted to see the difference.

    An observation on African bowhunting

    My 2 cent, between my wife and I we have taken approximately 60 plus african game animals from steenbok to cape buffalo with our bows and I also think that there is some truth to the toughness being mythical. The only animals that seemed tough were shot poorly, three critters that seemed to be...

    Bear Baiting..............banning

    As a P&y measurer I have kept track of bear ages and it on average takes a bear a minimum of 8 years to squeeze it to the record book. By the time a bear is 8 he has had a lot of life experience and is hard to fool on a bait to get him to come in daylight hours.
