    The spirits, the witches, African Tokoloshe, superstitions, experiences and the tales

    I've felt the same at "Bloody Lane" at Antietam. I found out later, I passed through the same time of day the battle was in that location.

    NAMIBIA: First Safari Lessons Learned

    I read your experience with great interest as my only African hunt was such a mess I didn't even want to try to (post) explain a hunt report. I may be the only person on this forum who came back from Africa and isn't sure I want to return. I'm glad your trip overall was a success!! Best of...

    Elk at 688 yards with a 243

    That has always been my opinion. Sure we see videos and hear stories where the animal (any species) was recovered... How many hundreds (thousands?) of animals die a slow painful death or walk away wounded. With the shooter saying, "I must have missed."

    How Long Did it Take for Your SCI Record Book Entries to Appear?

    Where did you get the measurements taken? One of my guides (before I left) said I may have some SCI and/or Rowland Ward animals.

    Neighbors

    I was thinking large (2' diameter or larger) decorative boulders too. Yes initially expensive, but hopefully just a one time cost. You're going to have to trim grass around a fence or shrubs too, why not end up with a more permanent (lower maintenance) solution. You can even space the boulders...

    Suunto Traverse Alpha Foliage NIB

    After a few wilderness hunts I purchased a Suunto Traverse Alpha in foliage GPS watch (2019) I didn't like the way it set on my wrist so it was never used. I have the box and everything it came with. It was about $600 new. After some internet searches, I'm only asking $220. --200 for the watch...

    Cartridges you just hate

    I have read through every post and love the different reasons given for each persons cartridge "hate" After 22 days I decided to throw in my .02 First let me say I have spent some time with the 6.5 manbun. It is good for what it was designed for, a long range paper puncher. Like what has been...

    Let’s be honest….accuracy off the sticks

    I missed 2 times on same less than 100 yd animal. Didn't pick up a rifle for over a year it had got in my head so bad. Ended up taking an NRA sponsored long range shooting course shooting 6.5 cm to finally get my confidence back. Hopefully you can resolve this quicker than I did.
