Welcome aboard Joey, and thanks for your service. I'm currently 76, why is that important, well prior to the internet and forums like this I thought hunting Africa was a RICH MAN'S GAME. If you were married and had kids to put through college hunting there wasn't an option for those of us with working man's salaries. On the other hand if you were single, African hunts were more plausible. It wasn't till after I discovered the fact that hunting Africa was no more expensive (for an Easterner that is) than a guided Elk hunt that I took the possibility seriously. If you really want to go, do a good job researching a suitable hunt and start saving your money. Go as soon as you can, because once you do, you'll find a way to go back.

Welcome!
I’ve been traveling all over the African continent since my early 30’s.. but didn’t actually hunt Africa (first hunt was PG) until my mid 40’s..

Joey, welcome to the AH forum! Again thanks for your service.
I made my first trip at 69 young years. Now booked for number 5 and starting out my granddaughter at 13.

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!
