Hi
I am Johnny Scholtz and new to this sort of thing, but I am a keen hunter and fisherman. I hope that this platform would broaden my views on hunting and may be link me up with like minded people around the world. I have hunted all over South Africa and in Mozambique and Namibia, but would like to spread my wings a bit. So that me.
 
Welcome to AH.
Plenty of hunters and fishermen in this community.

What are you thinking of hunting?
 
Well I would like to hunt every thing ha ha! No seriously, I am dreaming to meet a huge jumbo with a big bore gun in my hands in a wild place somewhere in Africa.
 
Hi spik.t
I hope I get this right , I recently visited Zambia, thats were I caught the tiger at a place called Sackeltons Lodge on the Zambezi.It's a nice country.
 
looks like a nice tiger you got there. i have only driven past down that side bringing vehicles up from walvis bay, and crossing into zambia at sesheke border post a bit up the road from there. our fishing place is right the other end of the country on the lower zambezi approx 20+ kms upriver from luangwa boma . nice to hear you had a good time .
 
That is a hell of a Tiger.
 
I just had a look at your website it is so nice to see private owners getting in to breeding and preserving game in Zambia. Here in SA it is taking a wrong turn with the people breeding all kinds of strange colours.Well its their business ,so i'll keep quiet.
 
No need to keep quiet. There are plenty of dissenting opinions on the color variant breeding programs.
 
Welcome to AH Johnny! Looking forward to having you on the site...

Hi Johnny, welcome go the forum. That's a nice Tiger fish. They are a terrific fighter that I've very much enjoyed fishing for in the Zambezi river on past hunts.

How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)
