As a new... well just becoming an active member to AfricaHunting.com I wanted to share my first impressions of our blog. Many times in life and over a long career in management I’ve come to seek out opinions of those sans the “rose colored glasses” to help remind me of the “why” an organization has value to its members/ share holders/ constituents. So for what it’s worth, and despite “preaching to the choir” here is mine.
First, I quickly developed a stong reverence for AHs long and well documented history, which goes a long way in answering repetitive questions so common on other blogs. I enjoy the members dedication to the subject matter, and the way in which members/Adm respecting one another’s view points, while not trying to create a bloody “safe space” to shield difference of opinions! And most importantly the literal “Who’s who” of memberships representing today’s most influential African PHs, dark continent Hunter naturalists, and subject matter experts who freely share their experiences and expertise to the general members!
BIG Congratulations for a job well done, keep up the good work, I look forward to learning from our amazing members on a subject near and dear to my heart! I’m also excited to contribute, and share my varied experience in hunting, optics, and dangerous game rifles, God bless
Cheers!
J.Fortuna
 
One of the best introductions ever... suck up... LOL
 
Hi Julius, welcome to AH !
 
Welcome to AH!
 
Welcome to AH sir!
 
Welcome aboard!

If I might just add to that, the moderators for this forum seem to really be on top of their game. I think it's a very big reason this forum is so popular with it's members.

I know I know @35bore, suck up. ;) But it's true in my book

Again welcome aboard and please share your stories.
 
Julius, thanks for starting to participate! The more people with differing experiences, the more valid the site becomes for me, IMO. Looking forward to more of your experiences.
 
Giday Julius and welcome to the A H forums
 
And welcome to you as well JoanneUnderwood!
 
Welcome! And I agree with your assessment. I have learned a great deal from AH starting several years ago when I was doing online research for my 2018 hunt in South Africa. I found valuable advise on rifles, hunting gear, how to work with my PH, etc.

@JoanneUnderwood I don't think many of us care if you're talented or smart enough to write a long introduction, as long as you post your pictures! (I thought I'd may as well be the first to say it! LOL)
I'm teasing you....... :A Wink: I'm sure you'll have some valuable input on here too! Looking forward to hearing what you have to say!

Spain, i booked through a consultant, i book almost everything through him now and he's done me right. his contact 724 986 7206 if interested and he will have more info to share,
I hunted elephant with Luke Samaris in 2005. It was my fourth safari and I tell you he is a fine gentleman the best. I got the opportunity to meet Patty Curtis, although never hunted with him but enjoyed our conversation around our tent in the Selous. Very sad for a tough guy to leave this world the way he did. Let’s pray the murderers are caught. I hope to see Luke in Nashville.
