Africa was more than I could imagine
Atlanta to Jburg is a beast
Get bulkhead seats or at the very least isle and upgrade if possible
If not 3 glasses of wine
VIP service meet and greet with gun service just makes the experience EASY
My PH, tracker, skinner-driver were the BEST
Africa is changing rapidly
Thorns have stickers on them..................................
Camp mates can make the difference between amazing and awful. (mine were amazing)
Do not over pack..................you don't need a knife except to clean your nails.
Good shoes without hard soles
 
A hunt report to follow I hope!
 
Congratulations bud. Look forward to hearing all about. How was the bulkhead/delta comfort?
 
I have to give kudos to the PH s who submit themselves to that journey yearly with zig zag flights all over the place here stand all day at shows. Not easy work.
 
Look forward to the who, where, and what!
 
A few more things that come to mind

you cannot stalk as quietly as the PH and trackers
leave the candy behind, the camp staff left me candy on my bed
forget cigarettes they can buy them cheaper than you
be kind to everyone
Camp staff makes amazing food------different but amazing
use a rifle that you can shoot well and premium bullets
300 WM with 180 grain Norma ammo e tips produced 1 shot DRT kills
Take more money and pictures
leave trophies unless they are very important to you
Hyena is difficult to hunt
Listen to your PH they know what they are doing
Experience everything you can sleep at home or on the plane
plan on extra time at airports international flights take time
Again VIP meet and greet is awesome
pictures and details to follow when I get my life back in order
 
So when is your next trip?? All of us hear know that it's inevitable.........................
 
I love the flight from Atlanta to RSA, it's a easy flight. It was just crazy expensive this year.

Be careful of this Wolfen guy. 2 messages. Both trying to sell something. He PM'ed me trying to sell something and he PM'ed my friend on here trying to sell something. Fishy.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.
