Outstanding report, waiting for more

That’s a very interesting chart. On my second day of hunting in Mozambiques Coutada 10, which no way can be considered not wild, my Ph stopped the truck and said “ let’s go for a walk, there is a great sable that lives here along with a bull with one horn” twenty minutes later we found them...

You should’ve talked to the owner about the cow wildebeest, I definitely see how it can happen though. Wildebeest, hartebeest and gemsbok can all be difficult to sex for even some really experienced hunters but aPH should not make that mistake but if they do they should own up to it.

That’s a beautiful wildebeest, to my eye they are the most attractive of the wildebeest.

??? If you’re talking about the wildebeest/crocodile scene, the wildebeest jumping is actually a “kings” wildebeest, one of the designer blue wildebeest and the two swimming are “regular” blue wildebeest. But to your point if the artist was trying to duplicate the wildebeest migration of Kenya...

The guy that wrote this is Dr Frank Hibben, freaking spell check.

Under the African Sun by Dr Frank Hobbes. Read it before and it’s a pretty good read , mostly about East Africa with a little Botswana thrown in.

This is a great thread!, nothing much to add. Other than one of my trackers in Mozambique wanted the horns off of a reedbuck to give to someone in his village. Wish I would’ve asked a few more questions but he was being a little secretive about it.

That was a very enjoyable watch. Absolutely nothing wrong with that hunt.

If you want wild lechwe that rules out Mozambique but brings the Caprivi in Namibia, Okavango in Botswana and Zambia into the mix.

Nice carp

Great report and a fantastic hunt. One of my favorite write ups in a while outside of any write ups that deal with the outfits I’ve hunted with. They bring back memories and you good sir have created a dream hunt for me!

Was the suppressor provision left in?

For those interested, Wik has started posting Oscars hunt on their Facebook page today. I’m not on face book but you can glance at it for about 30 seconds before you get blocked. Apologies if already covered but curiosity has me wondering about taxidermy plans?

I’m with @DieJager , full body incorporating it in with the bongo. At the foot of a pedestal or full body of the bongo, I don’t know Bruce’s plan for the bongo though.

I don’t remember the exact year (maybe 2012) but when I was researching my first guided western big game hunt Colorado was high on my list but they had just passed a couple of very restrictive gun laws. At least in my opinion. This weighed heavily on my decision to not spend my money in Colorado...

The thing that really stands out to me about the Supreme Court, it’s so damned predictable how the three liberals will vote. There are two or three conservative members that are fairly predictable even looking through my conservative glasses the three that so often become the swing votes...

About 5 years ago one of our H2A workers got a DUI, they didn’t deport him but he received all of the fines and punishment a citizen would receive. When he applied to come back the next year he was denied entry back into the US.

Congratulations! Good luck on the rest of your hunt

There is definitely some great artwork and artists there! What really caught my eye was the spots on most of the bobcats. Beautiful!

Wish I had the money! It would’ve been a great stable mate for my MRC .416 Rigby.

Evidently Trump has brokered some type of deal with Congo and Rwanda.

Congratulations, Oscar Your report brought back great memories, chasing Wik up and down those hills, stuffing myself with that delicious warthog sausage and all of the rest! I also really like the shape of both kudu! Unlike most I prefer the more narrow bulls. To go with your scabby old buff...

That was my thinking as well , one goat per two adult male lions don’t think so. I was thinking caracal or jackals. There is a very comprehensive book on the lions by someone else named Patterson with no relation to Col Patterson. He used a lot of the Chicago Field Museums research in his book.

They are , 9:30 central Saturday night and next Wednesday night at 6:30

Love to see some pictures

This is assuming she’s smart enough to realize it wasn’t a compliment!

Hasn’t everyone seen one? Especially after a few pink gin&tonics!

Took the time to watch this last night. It was pretty decent except for one dig at “rich trophy hunters” when they said in the late 90’s early 1900’s the English moved the Maasai out of their homeland to make room for wealthy trophy hunters. Not really much new information though.

SCI has a list of species that are eligible for their Tiny Ten award

That’s what I thought also, I got distracted before I could read the article and accidentally deleted it, I’ll see if I can find it this morning.

My favorite thing about a suppressor is the ability to stay on target a more accurately call my shot due to the reduced recoil. I shot a waterbuck bull at 287 yds and was able to follow the vapor trail to impact on his shoulder.

Great secondary growth your klippie! Nice bushbuck as well, I can never get enough bushbuck. Did the 6.5 blow up on the little antelope?

Love it, especially the grizzled look of the grysbok!

Great ram!! That beach brigs back doe great memories

But of course the anti’s have some more tricks up their sleeves. At least I would bet they do.

I just received an update from SCI and the bear season is on.

I bet that’s a conversation starter!

Great old bull, you reminded me what it was like to chase Wik up and down those mountains! My legs started aching and my lungs started gasping just thinking about it.

Great old waterbuck!

Waiting anxiously! The tiny ten has grown on me over the years.

Good start.

This guy also wants to arrest Netanyahu if he comes to New York. This would be interesting since he wants to replace the police with social workers. I would almost pay money to see how that would go over with the Israeli equivalent of the US Secret Service or Mossad!

Expecting a good story and pictures!!!

Congratulations, y’all had a great hunt! A lot of people here have hunted with G4A, my wife and I were there in 2018. Ready to go back!

Back in 2014 I did a 10 day buffalo package in the delta for around $13,000, included day rates, hunting license, rifle import and buffalo trophy fee. Had a mandatory 4 plainsgame add on. I brought home buffalo, sable, nyala, warthog, bushbuck and shot Lichtenstein hartebeest and reedbuck on...

Food for thought; Florida and New York City have populations of +- 20 million. Florida has about half of the budget of New York City. I realize it’s not an easy or may not even be right to compare budgets of a state and city.

The big swamps and flood plain is the reason I long to go back. Late in the season the swamps aren’t that bad and the amount of game you can see at one time is mind boggling. The first place we stopped to glass we saw 10 different species of game. Truly amazing! I shot my bull at about 60yds on...

She needs to read up on her Mexican history, I believe Mexico gained their independence from Spain around 1821 or so, that makes the US 45 years older than Mexico.
