Hello from Vermont

Welcome to AH, Gary!
 
Hello Gary, welcome to the forum!
 
Welcome!

And Bob is dead on. Africa is not as far out of reach as some think. Making the dream become a reality can certainly be done. Don't give up on it if you really want it. :)

Welcome Gary! Peruse the deals section and you may find that a trip to Africa could be closer than you thought.

If you study up and shop hard for flights, use the gear you have, maybe nice pictures, some skulls and skinns rather than all out taxidermy and you could make it happen. Even consider the off season.... don't be afraid to open a dialog to find out what is possible.

There are some really great outfitters on here who like to make things happen!
 
Welcome Gary. I hope you enjoy the site.
 
Welcome Gary!

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)
