Anyone flying out of Atlanta to Joberg July 16th? My blonde and I are headed out then. Coming back the 25th. If you are, let’s raise a glass or three while we’re waiting. Got the .375 Ruger grooving along and looking forward to it. Hunting with Phillip Bronkhorst.
 
Thank you sir!
 
What is your #1 trophy you are looking to take?
 
Kudu and black wildebeest. Did not get a chance at either my first trip.
 
Good luck and shoot straight! Anxious to hear about your hunt, my wife bought us a hunt with Phillip in August of 2025.
 
Phillip is not cheap but he is a super guy. He’s donated a lot of hunts over the years and gets repeat clients. He and a couple of his guys have stayed with us 3 times over the past few years. I’ve really enjoyed visiting with them and picking their brains on stuff.
 
He donated a hunt to our state SCI chapter. That’s were we met his guys.
In your opinion what animal is a must hunt in his main area? I’m definitely going to hunt a tsessebe and blue wildebeest, 2 animals I haven’t hunted before but the biggest goal for the trip is to get my daughter and son in law to Africa, hopefully they will fall in love with it as my wife has.
 
I'm guessing it would be kudu. Supposedly, they have some really big ones there. Eddie, his bro-in-law, said they had spotted one he thought would push 60". I thought it was really interesting when he was telling me how hard it is to judge them as there are so many variables.

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?
