I’m just back from Zimbabwe and put many miles on my boots. About a year ago, I bought a pair of MACV 1 from Go Ruck. I wore then in preparation for my hunt. At first was not sure how they would hold up in Zim. They are lightweight and are not insulated or waterproof. After 130 plus...
Yes, it has been very dry. Dalton said 100% crop lost this year. We tracked through a couple of the fields and you can see that any plants that did germinate had been eaten to the ground.
Just received a Whatsapp from Dalton and both of my tusk are almost the same weight - 33 pounds apiece. Now the fun of dealing with USFW to get them to Missouri.
I’m bad about taking pictures of the camp but I did get a few. Attached are pictures of the dining area, the bar (in the middle of very bad drought water can be up to the bar) the chalet and a picture coming into camp in an area normally under water.
Thank you. I’m still not sure it has sunk in. I’m hoping to get the weights in the next couple of days. Dalton said it can a week or more before they can get them out of the skull.
Bull Elephant hunt with Dalton and York Safaris July 1-10, 2024.
Hunt: 10 day hunt in the Omay for Bull Elephant. My recommendations are to book this as a 12 day hunt and be in the best physical and mental shape you can be in. This was my first elephant hunt and I thought I was in great...
All I can say is what an awesome and humbling experience it was for me to hunt and take a Bull elephant. Also, to see all the villagers show up for a couple pounds of meat - truly a very emotional moment for me. I can’t say enough good about Dalton and York and their operation. I also want to...
Jenni and I have commissioned her to do sable bulls at a pan. Jenni had a picture she took during our trip and think it will make for an awesome painting. Hope to get it when we are in SA this October.
Congratulations on your second leopard. I’m debating with myself about hunting another leopard. I hope to have my first back from the taxidermist by the end of the year.
I try and get into the gym by 0615 everyday. I found I don’t generally get work calls that early. Plus, I enjoy having my day started with the hardest thing (physically) I’ll most likely do. I have noticed that my shooting has improved greatly with the cardio and weight training. Holding A...
KanatI Taxidermy in PA is doing just the two horns for me on a pedestal that will sit at the end of my bar. $600 compared to 3K plush for a shoulder replica. Just a thought. The great thing is if you have the measurements and pics you can do have something done at anytime.
Also, I did not...
My first trip was in 2003 and I was 35. At that time thought I’d be paying for that trip for the rest of my life. Headed to Zim in July to hopefully get my elephant and complete my Big 5. You can never go just once. Enjoy your Safari.
