Zimmermann Ltd. was the largest dermoplasty workshop on the African continent. Not much has been reported about him, nor is there much information available. I have done some research, and I do not want this man to be forgotten. Here is his story: Paul Zimmermann The story of the German...

for A+ B . C could be different Found it in MSs book"fear no death"

@dgr416 What you're describing is really disheartening. I always thought you had such strict laws against trespassing and poaching there... Does that mean you have to get on a plane for at least half an hour to get away from the nearest road? Foxi

I happened to be flipping through one of MS's books, “Death at My Feet,” again this afternoon. In it, he wrote about a buffalo that took 18 shots (.577 and .416 Weatherby Mag). Kevin, I wouldn't make too much of it—things like that just happen sometimes. Who wants to die, after all?

Kevin. Thanks for this interesting report. I'm especially glad to hear that the Hornady products performed quite well. They do get a lot of flak here on the forum. Were those the bonded bullets or the older ones? Best regards Foxi

I shot this leopard with my Pulsar as a pic. For observing great. For hunting different. In Germany only for foxes and boars allowed at nighttime.

Top I love the .223

:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:# Wheels, Hunt anything You are right. I had tomatoes on my eyes :ROFLMAO:

What name is written above KDS? I can't make it out in the photo. It was usually the name of the PH. And a half animal ist hanging there left.

Hello everyone, I am currently reading—once again—the magnificent book by Frank Dufresne, *No Room for Bears*. It is a work I read with great enthusiasm back in my youth. In it, the author described just how endangered brown bears and grizzlies were, due to insufficient conservation measures and...

I think I may not have expressed myself clearly you know, the English language is for a stranger not so easy. Googel Translater helps a lot,but sometime you have to belive what Google writes. And the finer points often get completely lost. @Adam Stevens thank you very much for the tip with...

wow. 2 Brownbears for free.You are joking,or? Have you ever done it and in which area is that ?

Altidude S., You're not hijacking anything. On the contrary, I appreciate your views. Although I would like to politely disagree. Buff 1 no Buff 2-the mine, yes Buff A -ok Buff B na ja,ok Buff C - I would never do that. We have to find out, if they attack. The survivor must marry the widow. ;)

Insults: the subtle difference. I have to share a story that happened to my friend in court: My friend converts vehicles into fire trucks and ambulances for a living. He had a customer who was interested in a high-end fire truck costing a few hundred thousand euros. Plans were drawn up, quotes...

They did a nice job with it. It has a black ebony handle, so now I have a fly swatter like an ancient African dignitary. A lovely keepsake. My wife, however, said I could finally start dusting the house with it—so trophies can actually be good for something for once :unsure:

Altitude S. I can see the cavity, and the brain is inside it. If I shoot him there, he’ll fall like a stone. According to Mark Sullivan, a shot to the nose usually doesn’t do anything. In his videos, he only has one—but it’s very spectacular—that actually works (he always use fullmetall...

when i kick you in your good things you lay on the ground for two days. Call it what you will -its an assault. American humor is definitely a more delicate flower Insults are a criminal offense here, whether they're directed at a politician or just at me. Whatever. But you definitely won't go...

Hi folks, my trophy arrived safely at my home early this morning—excellently packaged—17 months after the animal was taken and following €3,000 in repatriation costs (all-inclusive). You really ought to check out the taxidermy company's website. It’s called Splitting Image (RSA). They are true...

@Killingtime "if your Bavarian I assume you are German or Austrian.. some of the things people have been jailed in Germany for saying is appalling and that trend seems to extend to many places in Western Europe now." I’d like to know more about that. Where I’m from, we tend to let certain...

Whatever one may think of transgender people, to call incitement to violence “free speech” is a bit of a stretch.

You truly have a wonderful, subtle British sense of humor. Very astonishing for an American. :A Outta: Bravo. But not everyone is a Cicero :)

oh you Americans.... My dear friend, what you are posting there is the mindset of an American backwoodsman.I understand you—I am a backwoodsman myself, a Bavarian one—but I have traveled far more extensively than you have, particularly to England.It is simply nonsense; and here, I would like to...

no.Here you can say all and preaching also..Even he. Speakers’ Corner is a gathering place at the northeastern end of Hyde Park in London, right next to Marble Arch. Under a parliamentary resolution dated June 27, 1872 (the Royal Parks and Gardens Regulation Act), anyone may give a speech on...

But TT, isn't it the case that, as an Alaska resident, you can get cheap permits at least for caribou and moose? Simple and straightforward? Or do we in Europe still have a picture in our minds of how things were 30 years ago? In the Yukon, however, moose permits cost $20 CAD for residents And...

it's not just you guys. Our metropolitan areas no longer belong to us. In fact, we've already lost. Sic transit...

Charles Akeley ??

cool pic(y)

Wheels, do you know more about Eric Balson ? Do you have a pic of him ? Decades ago I red a notice that he shot the biggest buffalo of a long search in Tanzania. People finally wanted to know just how heavy those mighty buffalo really were. Out of what were likely thousands, the largest one was...

Wow. Fenced ? Breeded ?

"Thats Africa Safari " Valie Enslin, told me this for a few weeks. Ask him for the scource, he is a member of AH.

they banned it. 2028 its over.

Wolfgang Schenck, the former chief taxidermist at Zimmermann (the largest taxidermy firm in East Africa ) wrote in his book that, as a resident, he could hunt without any problems in the blocks designated by the government where a professional hunter (PH) was staying with their clients. The...

good old times,but its an illusion.Fewer people than today could afford these prices The average houshold income in 1975 in USA it was total $ 11.800.- !!!!! You dont get a free roaming buff for that today. I had a friend who has hunted in CAR 1955. On his license stood 20 buffaloes and four...

@Phoenix Bill. I'm not complaining. Not at all. But the fact is, Trump stopped the financial aid a long time ago. I even used AI to check the data. Since Trump came to power, the US is no longer an ally of Europe. He threatens us even more than Putin. And Putin, we really don't like him. Now...

But Europe is paying for your weapons. You aren't.

Seen a documentary about London on this topic. Every night, about 120,000 “lines” of cocaine are consumed there. At least. This was determined through wastewater testing.

what have you shot with ? This bullet is a splinter granade.My shotplacement is mostly behind the shoulderblade. When it hits a bigger bone,oh God It performs very well, but hardly any other bullet flies as accurately as this one in my Blaser K95 in .308 What has been your experience with it...

With all your experience, you surely know what you need to do for that, don't you? Actually, everything's fine. You just wanted to show us your toys, didn't you? Great collection. Post some photos . We'd all be interested. But .400 and up is probably the better choice. I'd prefer the .450 "Let...

That makes sense. I'm afraid I've downloaded it too many times. I won't do that anymore. Four or five times, and that's it. Thanks

on the left side is Lettow

@deewayne . never heared of this. Don't know so it is avaliable in Europe. Thank you

Hello reloader. Your collective wisdom is needed. I use a double rifle, o/u, in .458 caliber and reload my own cartridges. Now I'm being told I should only resize belt cases up to the belt, not beyond. Apparently, that weakens the case. How do you resize your cases? If I don't resize all the...

Yes, I guess I exaggerated, a bit ;). But don't forget that the US's annual interest payments exceed its military budget. Without debt repayment!!! I'm convinced that the petrodollar won't dominate the world on its own in the next 10 years, and then you'll be in serious trouble. Of course...

Here’s the headline from a major German left-liberal-left newspaper, the Süddeutsche. "300,000 companies have overpaid tariffs by 166 billion USD and are entitled to a refund." If that’s true, you’re broke. We already are. Welcome to the club :rolleyes:

Believe me, that’s not true at all. Even Meloni in Italy is pulling her support. And this woman is certainly not suspected of being a socialist. But some guys have a messianic faith in DT here, just like my parents did in the Führer back in the day.

Pondoro is, in my opinion, quite right in many of his comments. The fact is: an Arab/Muslim/Palestinian life is valued far less than a Jewish life in the Western world. This is a point one could certainly consider in a quiet moment. The tragic civilian casualties on both sides certainly play a...

outstanding adventure. What a polar bear. Can you tell us how many bears this community can harvest per year ? Regards from Europe

Wundebare Geschichte . Danke fürs Mitnehmen.

Yes, you can use it to slash. That's usually it's good for. But what do I need a knife for hunting? For killing For skinning For butchering After almost 48 years of active hunting and countless butchering of my game, I'd like to offer this observation: Regarding killing: It happens...
