17 Days until lift off....

[buddy48]

Well, I am going on my first hunt in South Africa in 17 days. Man am I nervous. Not so much about the hunting but about being prepared for the hunt itself. What will I forget that I need, have me and my son practiced enough, am I in good enough shape to enjoy the hunt, will one of us get sick......the list goes on and on. My mind races at times thinking about everything. Gotta just let all that go, hope for the best and enjoy ourselves.

Thanks to this website and all of y'all i'm a whole lot better prepared than I would have been.

Enjoy!

You will likely way overpack. Remember boots, binos, and rifle and all will be good.

Who are you flying? I'm headed over on the 7th.

Almost had someone to talk to on the flight.

Man are you going to have fun!

With your son as your hunting partner, you can't go wrong!

as royal said ...plus some clothes as well hopefully . you will definitely take too much "stuff" with you that will never be needed, so relax and stop worrying about imagined things and concentrate on the great time you and your son will have

Relax and enjoy it. I know, easier said than done. Try to sleep some on the 15 hour ATL-JNB flight. The Joburg airport is actually quite nice and fairly efficient to get in and out of. You and your son will have a great time and memories for a lifetime.
