Hi Guys,

All the way from Australia, I am looking to do my first African hunt early next year.

I'll no doubt be reading a lot here and asking heaps of questions!

Thanks for having me!
 
Welcome to AH Shifty!
 
Shifty, welcome to the AH forum! Lots of you Aussies on here with good info.
For your upcoming Africa adventure I’d recommend starting your research by clicking on “safari planning guide” at the top of the page. I found it very helpful. Good luck!

Hello Shifty,

Khomas Highland Hunting Safaris of Namibia, welcomes you to the greatest forum on earth.

Best Regards,
Velo Dog.
 
Welcome aboard Shifty. Seems like this site is garnering more and more Aussies every day. Please tell us a little more about yourself as a hunter. Things like what have you hunted in the past, what kind and caliber rifles you own, do you reload. Where do you live and hunt in Oz? What are you planning to hunt in Africa? Where will you be hunting, who are you booked with?

Hi Guys,
I’m down in Melbourne at the bottom of Australia in the state of Victoria.

I mainly hunt Red Fox, Sambar and Fallow deer.
As for the rifles; I am a Winchester 70 and Sako 85 man and have .222, .22-250, .243, .7mm08, .30-06, .9.3x62

I have just sent off my deposit to hunt with KMG Hunting Safaris for April 2023, Marius has been very helpful indeed.

Looking forward to learning a lot and meeting new people!

Cheers,
Shifty
 
G'day Shifty,
Good to see more Aussies here.

Hope you hunt a ripper Warthog, Warthogs are cool.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
