In memoriam - Legendary Professional Hunter Harry Selby passes away at 92

It is always sad when a pillar of the P.H. community passes. But his legacy lives on with those he mentored. Thanks, r.i.p.
 
RIP Harry, one of the last great hunters.
 
Rather than mourn his passing, I'll bet he'd prefer that we share his accomplishments in life. Headstones normally bear a name a date of birth and a date of death separated by a dash. While the dates don't count for much, it is the DASH that is the measure of a man's life. Harry, yours' will be remembered for many generations to come.
 
Last sunday I've read in "The Horn of the Hunter" and thought by myself that Mr. Selby must be more than 90 years of Age.
And then I had to discover the fact... .
My condolences for his family and surviving dependants

R.I.P.

I will pray for his family. He was a certainly a legend.
 
Truly one of the greats, and one of the few remaining links to the golden age of safari in East Africa.

Sic transit gloria mundi.

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
