Wow, time has flown, I am down to 37 days before I leave. Life is busy & I'm sure the time will fly by. Got pretty much everything I need I hope. Trying to shoot as much as I can, but life & weather keep getting in the way. At least it seems spring has finally sprung here... the 4' of snow is starting to melt.

Ahh.. to be seeing the stars over Africa for the first time.
 
Oh yeah? Well i leave in exactly 36 days so nanny nanny boo boo! Hahahaha

Im headed for bulawayo. Whats your end destination?
 
It is great to see everyone starting to get excited as their date of departure comes screaming or crawling at them.

Good luck. Post those reports and pictures.

Good luck on your trip and may you take all your game with one shot! I am pretty jealous of some of you as I wont be going again for another year or two. Oh well. I have been there 6 times so I guess I shouldnt bitch too loud.:rolleyes:

Good grief, my June 11th Africa trip is seeming like forever away now with so many going in April and May...but I have a red stag hunt in New Zealand in April to go to first, so that will help cut the time I suppose.... ;)
 
My departure July 2nd is even longer to....
92 days till I board the plane. 94 days till I start my first hunting day.

Looking forward to read all the reports from people going before me :)
 
41 days for my son and I. We are headed to KZN in the RAS for our first safari. It will be a PG hunt. Man, are we stoked!

Good luck to all who are headed that direction!
 
I leave July 12th. Seattle to JFK. JFK to South Africa. I overnight at Africa Sky guesthouse on the 14th and then on to the KZN.

Nugget here. A guide gave me the nickname as I looked similar to Nugent at the time. Hunting for over 50 years yet I am new to hunting in another country and its inherent game species. I plan to do archery. I have not yet ruled out the long iron as a tag-along for a stalk. I am still deciding on a short list of game. Not a marksman but better than average with powder and string.

Hey, I noticed that you were at the SSAA Eagle Park range... where about in Australia are you?

Take care bud

may I suggest Intaba Safaris in the East Cape by Port Elizabeth, Eugene is a great guy, 2 of us will be there April 6th to April 14th. he does cull hunts(that's what I am doing) and if you go to his web site he is and offering daily fees of 200.00 and good cull prices. Thanks Jim
Everyone always thinks about the worst thing that can happen, maybe ask yourself what's the best outcome that could happen?
