ZIMBABWE: Elephant Hunt From 20 Years Ago...And I Wouldn't Try That Again!

I certainly would do tuskless again or any other ele tracking hunt. They are still my favorite species and still leave me without words after taking one. I don't high five or fist pump or good heavens, crawl up on the carcass and take photos. I just stand there quietly for awhile out of respect to taking something with as many trips around the sun as me.
 
Great adventure! Thanks for posting. I remember being in Zimbabwe when the inflation was out of control.
 
Great story! I know Charles Helm, but haven’t talked to him in quite some time. He’s a good guy.

I lost track of Charles. Tell him I said hello if you see him.
 
Thanks for sharing this story of what got you hooked on Africa and Elephant hunting
 
Thanks for sharing your adventure at first I thought the lever gun would be a 45/70 and at least your pipe had a bigger hole.
 
Nice! I just posted a link to this exact story the other day in the .50 Alaskan thread :D

Time to search through every case to find that DVD

Reza Call me any time you want to talk about Elephant. hunting and CMS.
I've hunted two Elephant with CMS.
In 13 African safari's and an equal number of North American hunts, BUZZ is the best guide I have ever hunted with.
