Heavy Rain in Namibia

Yep! My guy is Namibia sent me photos just yesterday! Looks great!
 
Spike does that rain you ree getting in Zambia mostly end up below Kariba, or a good portion above?
The kafue goes in to the zambezi below Kariba near chirundu ...but a lot goes into the zambezi ...so both...lot of rivers in zambia
Just seen @Zambezi gave very good info...
 
Thanks Zambezi. The other significant contributer to Kariba is the Sanyati. What we are noticing is that the ITCZ is coming further down, currently sitting over southern Zambia and Kariba, and as a consequence maybe less rainfall over northern Zambia and eastern Angola. So maybe less flow down the Zambezi and more locally. The question is, will Kariba still get the benefit, or more to Cahora Bassa?

Kevin we are in the north in the copper belt....in straight line not really that far from DRC border, and I promise you we are having sh-t loads of rain....put some photos contrasting here on vanguards hunting report yesterday

Imagine the delight of the animals when this happens. Great cinematography.
 
Namibia is a genuinely beautiful place. Especially when it rains!
I’ve seen pics from friends of the grass there now and it makes me want to get over there.
 
+1 on that Philip. Anyone that can post a recent pic of Namibia, and the new growth? Appreciate it...........................FWB

I've been twice to Namibia, both during the recent drought, on the way back in September to the Khomas region
Very Excited to see the transformation
 
Excellent scenery
Really beautiful
 
First time I was in Namibia the area was experiencing a long drought (2007).
Will be returning next week to within a few tens of miles of there.
I'm curious to see how much different it looks now.
 
Will be there in a couple weeks just NE of Okahandja. Been twice in Sept and so looking forward to seeing it green.

Please some photos!
 
This, in my opinion, is 2012 or 2013, then there was a lot of crake. And in 2014, they did not return from wintering in East Africa: ( , I think-because of the drought, and so far they have not recovered in number. Crake refers to the "swamp trifle" and it is usually prepared together with snipe, etc., that comes across. But it has a less pungent taste of game, like waders. And it's not as fat as a quail, and about twice as big. Usually they are prepared simply: you remove the skin with feathers (or if someone is meticulous - pluck), rub with salt and black pepper and smear with mayonnaise. And on the grate over the coals. You can sprinkle it with white wine. Another option is to marinate in something sour, but do not get hot with acid - who does what, from sour milk and wine to tomatoes with sour apples. Then fry lightly on both sides in a frying pan in butter or with slices of bacon, cover with a lid and put out.

I haven't eaten any old boots, as far as I know, although I can't be sure - there are different restaurants...

Sorry, I didn't remove the logos of our club, is this a big violation? It's not commercial.
You may get banned......haha

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
