    Alligator hunt

    Called the guide today to ask questions . Already have a bad feeling . Guide was short and didn’t want to answer questions . I asked about method of take . He says we walk around looking for gators then you shoot. I stated I thought it was snag and shoot . He says we can do that too . That way...

    Alligator hunt

    I need to call the outfitter when I have a block of time . Looks like hook then shoot. As for size It is based on increments . Not sure if I’ll do it again so I’m starting to lean towards the 9-10 ft range . I will do it for garments and not a rug been looking at the horn back and belly skins...

    Ethics of posing for videos with dying animal

    I wouldn’t hunt with that outfitter. Our only job is hunters is to kill the animal quickly and cleanly with the least amount of suffering possible the hunters is a piece of trash too.

    SOUTH AFRICA: Koringkoopie Safaris

    If I would have even considering giving this outfitter benefit of a doubt there is no way I would now . These bogus reports the new members spamming good reviews . I’m glad I found this sight and will happily plan through Sponsers with credibility and positive history

    Big pod death grip

    Bought a big pod death grip and it stated its non maring . It scraped the heck out of my wood stock. First recommendations to stop it from occurring ? Would a rag in the grip work. Second what’s recommended for making the stock look nice again . It’s a hunting gun but it’s okay to be pretty too :)

    Shark diving

    Any one add cage diving to see great whites visiting South Africa ? I reached out to some operators to start planning my trip before some things came up.

    Questions about the Golden Wildebeest

    In my opinion it is a blue wildebeest. Also in real life it is a blue . I see no issue entering it. That’s like having a separate category for a white bison . It’s still a bison

    Who else subscribes to Field & Stream magazine?

    It’s not that we need them but that the desire to hunt them causes spreads . I read the article yesterday and reached out to a high fence guy I know to see what he’s thinking . At the end of the day you cannot wipe out the animal and have people hunting them. Too much money in that

    Pig/hog damage to crops

    Hunter I’m going to correct something here . If humans ate sodium nitrate like this we would die as well. It’s not necessarily about being able to process it. It’s about the amount of the toxin take in. Eleven blue men discusses the effects of nitrite poisoning in humans . Amazon is trying to...
