Hello all,

I've lurked for a while and decided to sign up. I'm looking forward to learning, seeing other folks hunts and getting ideas for new adventures. My wife and I hunt Upland birds over our 3 setters throughout New England every fall and have hunted in Namibia, South Africa and Romania. I also love casting flies.

Yes, there are still hunters in Massachusetts!
 
Welcome to AH! Been on the turnpike across Mass from the west border to Boston, very pretty country. If you get a chance please share some of your hunting stories.
 
Hello and welcome!
 
Welcome to AH.
I 2nd Phil's sentiments.
 
Welcome Atticus! Love to see some pictures and read a report of your Africa hunts!
I have an old GSP I've hunted behind for most of the upland birds out west...Huns, 2 types of sharptails, prairie chickens, bobwhites, scalies, pheasants, dusky grouse, ptarmigan, chukars, and probably some others my white hair can't recall right now. Hunting behind a dog is a grand sport whether you pull the trigger or not!
Best
 
Atticus, glad you joined us. I too would enjoy reading about your previous hunts and seeing your trophies. What kind of rifle do you own? What caliber? Do you reload. Did your wife hunt in Africa as well?
 
Welcome, as the others have said, would like to hear the stories.
 
Welcome to AH Atticus! Looking forward to having you on the board!
 
Welcome. Good to see a fellow New England hunter.
 
Welcome to AH sir. I had every confidence that there would still be hunters in the land of the Red Socks!
 
Welcome to AH!
 
Welcome to AH!
 
Happy to have you. Welcome.
 
Thanks for the warm welcome all. I'll try to post some photos of past trips when I get pix onto a new hosting site.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...
Behind the scenes of taking that perfect picture.....

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris
