    Credit Card Surcharges in South Africa

    Many of the outfitters I talk to that allow a credit card for the balance say upfront if that is what is used for the final balance there will be a 3% addl charge. I have never seen higher than that but Im sure there is. The rate someone is charge has a lot to do with the credit score of the...

    Safari boots and brands !!!

    I enjoy having different boots and have quite a few depending on where I am hunting. The weather, is it rock or sand, support for miles a day or xtra quiet for stalks etc. It all plays a part weather its the mud in Maine or the red beach sand of South Africa...

    SA Bound Tomorrow!

    You know how it is a couple weeks before you leave, that's all you can think about! Trying to harvest as much as we can in the garden, doing a bunch of canning, getting as much done at the office in preparation, you know all the fun stuff. Until then we are living thru you!

    SOUTH AFRICA: African Barefoot Safaris 2024

    I have never hunted with Reon, this will be our first trip with them. We are going to two places we have never hunted with before. instead of going twice this year, we decided to stay longer and transfer to another place. With the cost of plane tickets, it seems to work out much better.

    I should be in Africa right now!

    Although it certainly is not fun having to cancel a trip, I am sure it is a lot harder for the outfitter that heard this one month before the hunt especially if you were the only one scheduled that week or month. Its got to be tough when you make the majority or all of your income in 4-6 months.

    Africa turned my Wife into a Hunter

    Exactly. Its also like how you felt hunting 40 years ago when it was still new. She gets excited about going and that is all she talks about. She even now watches hunting shows without me putting them on.

    Africa Bound With a Bow

    I am sure you will have a great trip, and your set up will work fine. I use an SKB case. Been going over for more than 30 years and have never had an issue. If you are putting your arrows in the same case as your bow, do not leave any field points in them. They will remove the arrows and field...

    Potentially stupid question

    It is not actually suede, its called a rough out and is a lot more durable than suede. Suede is a scored leather of the hair side. A rough out is the side with no hair. I have a few pairs of rough out boots, they are great.

    What's the most Mambas you have seen on a safari?

    And the best Mamba Bowhunting video is from our very own Pat while he was hunting at Dries. Don't poke the bear! or the Black Mamba.

    What's the most Mambas you have seen on a safari?

    I have seen quite a few, but I think the most on one 10 day safari was about 6. I have had them in the blind, come in the blind thru the window, at the waterhole, in the tree while on stand, just outside in the road, and on the ground while stalking. We also found a dead giraffe once at the base...

    Best Time of Year

    My favorite months are July August and September. Go ahead and mount the 47. I have a bud that mounts his animals, and if ever he gets a bigger one, he has the horns fitted to the mount and the old horns fitted to the new skull mount.

    I believe you need to be a member to access the page. In todays world I think that reason has more to do with Privacy. It saddens me that most photos never get posted or hunters have to hide their faces and accomplishments. It's another reason to support SCI. I think the majority of animals...
