    Who Is The Next Hemingway, Ruark?

    When I was an impressionable teenager in the mid-late 1970's here in Texas I had one conduit that set the hook in me...it was a very young Peterson's Hunting magazine. The articles were all pretty much a mix of Jack O'Connor reprints, a few reprints from Elmer Keith, a very very young Captain...

    Philip Glass on TIA

    It appears Andy just uploaded this episode to YouTube a few hours ago. I'm watching it now and enjoying it immensely. Great shots by you on both the Hyena and the Buff. York seems like a great guy to hunt with...very affable but hard working.

    What Watch do you wear when you hunt?

    Yep, I've got the Pepsi bezel as well. What is amazing is how much more that watch is worth than when I bought it....something not mentioned much in this thread. It is currently worth 400% more than what I paid for it. I did not buy it as an investment and was somewhat shocked (in a good...

    San Francisco Bay Halibut

    This is dead on the money. If I'm in a good seafood restaurant and Alaskan Halibut is on the menu that's what I'm ordering every time!

    Hello All From West Texas

    I am laughing out loud about Jeff Howes teaching you to drink beer....that surprises me not at all! Jeff was always a lot of fun and a damn good golfer. If remember correctly, he was the Budweiser student rep his Junior year. I also laughed at Boud is Boud....yes! That is great to hear...

    Hello All From West Texas

    I went to the University of Texas in the early to mid 1980's and half my fraternity were Midland guys...a mix of Midland High and Midland Lee grads. The Midland Lee guys who were a year behind me had won the 5A State Championship their seniors years. My step Dad and Mom grew up in Houston...

    Hello All From West Texas

    Welcome to the forum. Where are you out in West Texas? I'm in Houston but my Mom and Step Dad lived out in Van Horn for 40 years before he passed a couple of years ago. He shared hunting rights on zillions of acres of ranches out there with the owners and was the largest outfitter for mule...

    Namibia or elsewhere? 2024

    I heartily second the recommendation of Jan Oelofse Hunting Safaris in Namibia. Jan was an absolute legend in Africa and an icon in Namibia. He was the guy who managed all the animals, including doing the stunts, for John Wayne's iconic movie in Africa, Hatari. Your wife would have a...

    Cross wildebeest off the list?

    Agree with the forum, definitely keep the Blue Wildebeest on your list. If anything, I would look to potentially add a Kudu and/or a Zebra to your list. If you have to drop something for cost purposes then drop the Blesbuck. I am sitting here in my living room admiring my Gemsbuck, Blue...
