First safari booked!

Spend at much time at the range as possible especially considering all of that upcoming overtime for work.
I plan on it. Won't have the same rifle but close to it, so it should be ok.
 
Does anybody know if I can have my recurve bow packed in my luggage or does it have to be in a case of it's own?

Pretty generic, listing "archery".

I assume your bow breaks down. Baggage allowance on SAA international flights is pretty generous. I get 3 free checked bags on an economy flight from Lagos to Joburg. Usually only travel with one checked bag and one carry on. I've learn to pack an extra duffle bag, just in case you buy a few things while in RSA.
 
Enjoy the hunt!
 
350 hrs OT wow !
Always take more than you need , if possible .
Temptation is to great to shoot more than you paid for when there .
Never come home with any regrets .
You never know what life will throw at you ??
Have a great trip and come home broke tired and happy .
Cheers Dory .

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
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
