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.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
