Greetings everyone. This is my first attempt at a post, outside of my intro/greeting...so I hope this is going into the correct thread. Please excuse the new guy if I mangle protocol. Still learning the site!

Anyhoo...I will be attending the Dixie Deer Classic in NC this weekend. I was a little surprised, and excited, in reviewing the vendor list to find several outfitters from Africa. So, thought I'd list them for anyone else attending....and, see if anyone on this forum may have any feedback/experience/knowledge regarding them. They are as follows:

Amanita Safaris
Bigwater Safaris
Likhulu Safaris
Lindile Safaris
Safari Afrika
Somerby Safaris
Warthog Safaris

I'm new here, but I haven't noticed any of these as sponsors or contributors yet. I'll visit them at the show....just asking for any comments from this very experienced membership!

Thanks!
 
Enjoy the show! Where are you in NC? Not going to make it myself this year, but looking at going next year. I dont think any of the outfitters on this list are members here but could be wrong.
 
@TByrd, you ask the same question I have.....it would seem that you could "verify and qualify" them somehow other than just their sales talk at the show. I've searched this forum some and don't see them. Thought I might go to Africa a couple of years ago and listened to the vendors at the show...all good salesmen but going to hunt there can't be as seamless as they make it sound......

Somerby is mentioned a good bit. Try the search function or a Google search including both H and Somerby.

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
