Hello, new member but I've lurked for awhile. I'm finally starting to get more serious about an eventual Africa hunt although I imagine it will still be several years off, and decided to actually make an account.
I'm currently living in Kentucky, generally use an old Savage .270 as my main hunting rifle for whitetail, but also enjoy quail, dove and small game hunting with a 12 gauge O/U. I've been moving into more longbow hunting (mostly small game right now) as well as looking into a spear boar hunt with a historic hunting group I'm a member of.
Eventually the goal is for a .375 HH for plains game and possible cape buffalo hunt. Long term goal I'd like to look into a .470 double rifle but that won't probably be until the little ones are grown up some.
Nice to meet you all.
 
Welcome to DCrowe! Enjoy exploring the site.
 
Welcome to the dark side, best hunting site going
 
Welcome to AH DCrowe!
 
DCrowe, welcome to the AH forum. Glad you decided to join. Lots of info and help on here to get you to Africa. Enjoy!
 
Welcome aboard DCrowe. Sounds like you've definitely got the "itch." Stick around here long enough and we'll help you scratch it. We all began with a dream or thought of hunting Africa "some day." In the meantime join in the conversation when you can, and learn from what others have and or are experiencing.
 
Welcome aboard!
 
Giday DCrowe and welcome to the A H forums
 
Always more entertainment on the posting side. Welcome to AH.
 
Welcome and greetings from the Bluegrass.

Welcome to AH!

I have to admit the first thing I thought of when I saw "DCrowe" from Kentucky was the character Dewey Crowe from the TV series "Justified" which took place in Harlan County. :)

My brother-in-law who I hope to talk into going to Africa with me lives in Boone County in NKy.
 
Welcome to AH!

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
