The town do the road from me had a company that made sport bags , rifle cases etc. I took the hide to them and asked if they could make a case out of it. They had never done that before and gave me a real good price. I think it was harder than they thought because they didn’t do it again?

I think you have a great idea with the Nyala I had mine shoulder mounted but I had the back skin tanned. Had a bench that it fit over and it looks great. Red Hartebeest rifle case.

He won by 1.5%? Don’t think that is a landslide!

I won a hunt like this years back. Since it is probably how the company gets customers. You sign up to win a hunt and there might be ten winners depending on how many hunts they sold at the show? Ask for someone local that won in a previous year and talk to them. I met a local that hunted with...

Talked to THABA. Family run Mother Son when I talked to them. Had a Package #4 Buffalo up to 40” good looking Bosses, they said self sustaining area. Less than $9000.

I went today. Quite a few African hunting companies. Seems to have more campers, four wheelers etc then in the past. New Zealand has several. Didn’t look at any of the fishing.

I have a Dr appointment Friday morning but I will probably drive down to Denver after that. Fun to talk to the people I hunted with in Africa. Looking for a mule deer hunt?

Well not from Africa but here I am after clearing customs with the two trophies I got in New Zealand in the duffel bag on the top of the luggage cart in the airport:)

I had my warthog skull bronzed. Brought some trinkets back also. Had rifle scaber made

Here is kind of a related story. A woman from I think California was mule deer hunting In western Wyoming with a guide and she shot at a good mule deer on their way down a hill to look the guide spots a monster buck to the side he lines the lady up and she shoots at that time the record mule...

When I started archery in Wyoming the club there was a NFAA and my bow fell into Bow Hunter Free Style (BHFS). I wasn’t the best around with guys that shot 300’s and 60 x’s at most tournaments. I did shoot some 300’s and the best x count I had was 52 when on the second to last target I put two...

First big game animal hunted with my father in law a long time ago outside Moorcroft WY.

I had mine bleached and used a wall mount. I had the hide tanned there and found a place here to have a rifle case made for it.

Hi Grew up in Scobey, I have hunted with Motsomi also. You should have a great Safari!! What is on your hunting list? Tom

How about trophies from other places on the planet. My best trophy, might never get something this big. New Zealand South Island

This was Skadi she was a rescue 12 years ago she wouldn’t find a downed bird but she could pull out a deer for you:)

WOW!!

I have done two safaris and just had dip and ship done of most of the skulls. I only had to bleach one skull. I used the wall mounts that you can get at your sporting goods store. One I made my own plaque so I could include the arrows used with one of the skulls. As long as you don’t have any...

Sorry the photo you showed I thought the front seats were business class. What I was referring to are the seats in Premium select. They are the section at the top of your photo clip. We flew back from Australia in that section and it sure made the 15 hours more pleasant.

The comfort + are recliners so your legs will be on the foot rests. I would say you might want to be back a row so you would have the handy room under the seat in front of you. TV and table come out of the arm rests.

On my last safari I had one hide a red Hartebeest done there since everyone said it would be less expensive. The rest of the four trophies were just dip and ship. It took more than a year to get things back to the states. It was all about the tanned skin they said there was an electric rationing...

I would go for a Chess knight token as a pedestal!!

TESLA Is this a close contact to your hunting company.

Could you change 1 x Kudu 1 x Nyala To 1 X bushbuck instead of the Nyala Tom

Hi I don’t have a left handed 375 Ruger but I do have a 375 Ruger that I got to go back to Africa for a Cap Buffalo. I also got a Leapold 1-5 for it. i haven’t made it back to Africa and I have shot some 300 grain through it. When I found some 275 grain shells I went from a zero at 100 to one...

Hi Of the above photos how many of them would fall into the expectations 5-8 kg category?

I wanted to get my wife to Africa to see what I did but she wouldn’t go on a hunt so I got my first PH who is now on his own to give us a Photo Safari since I knew he was into photography. That was January 2020 for that May-June and it didn’t happened. We pushed it to 2021 still no travel. We...

I would put in a vote for the 300 WM that is what I took on my rifle Safari and it did great. I agree with Aaron N. I now also have a 375 Ruger but only have shot paper with it.

It might be a better photo if wasn’t shot with a wide angle lense. Any other photos

Muskox I was 20-200 in one eye 20-300 in the other. I had LASIK surgery on both eyes 23 years ago. The next next morning I had 20-19 vision in both eyes. I could see a Canadian Honker in the valley below the friends house we went to. At 69 my vision is still 20-20 the only problem is as I got...

Great story of the hunt but if this was 2018 you must have some trophies in the trophy room by now! Any photos of the end results?

And lastly, as an added bonus, I am interested in finding some Norma 300 win mag brass (and even .30 cal Swift A Frames). I have these 300 Win Mag. They are are all once shot since I don’t reload. One of the Barns boxes has 12 the rest are full.(312 total) mare you still looking?

Might not be correct but most of the photos where the faces are blurred out are when the Safari company is posting the photo. They probably feel they need to have permission to post a photo of a client???

Do the book they are great to pull out and look at with all the text telling the story of the trip. here are my two from 2012 and 2014! Tom

In January 2020 at the Denver Sports show I talked to Roche of Roche Safari since he was my PH on my first Safari in 2012 about doing a photo Safari with him. We booked a time in April that year. Then the Covid pandemic blew up and that was changed to 2021. We still couldn’t do it then pushed...

Hi Tiger I put these in a thread about trophy rooms before. But here are a couple photos of my room it is 16’ on this end. the room has a 6’ bump out behind the bar. The room is 28’ long but to the end of the bar is 23’. I take a lot of photos so that space could be more trophies. A couple...

My last trip I had four trophies one a red Hartebeest that I had the hide tanned there. The rest was just dip and shipped. With a bunch of excuses like the electricity was being rationed Etc it took nine months to get the tanning done then a month and a half to get it shipped. For me the tanning...

Hi Nomad Didn’t read this whole thread. Did you find one yet? I have a good story and a Ruger M77 Hawkeye Guide Rifle is n 375 Ruger. Went to SA in 2014 and thought I had to go back for a Cape Buffalo. Put the money into the above rifle and then got Leupold to make me a custom VX-3 1.5 X 5 X 20...

Here is my story. My father in-law came to Wyoming to hunt for a Pronghorn. Since I wasn’t a hunter I got a local license so maybe one of them could get a second trophy. When I was introduced to my fathers friend (local Game Warden) I didn’t say anything about having one of them shooting a...

I am not the best photoshopper and this is a real bad job of copying a photo over another photo. If he didn’t go on SNL would he be getting attacked for this?

We have a plan for April 22 and if the company we are working with isn’t vaccinated we will not go to SA.

My Avatar is a photo of what will be my best trophy. A Red Stag from NZ 11-13 454 7/8. My name I have used since I was in WY. We shot NFAA there and my group was Bow Hunter Free Style. In a target shoot a top score was 300. I shot several tie breaker was X count. Best was 60 my best was 52...

Sounds good haven’t been in that area saw moose in my area and 28. Thought I could help. Have a great hunt!!! Tom

I hunt up by Red Feather area 7 what area did you get a tag in? Tom

I talked to the different places at our local sports show(Denver). Stopped in for several years before finally making the plunge. Picked from their packages with my main trophy(kudu).

I have 4 boxes and another 13. Don’t reload but looks like I may need to take it up:( Tom

Got the Elk tag for area 007.
