Large Botswana Bull

@M70375!

Congrats on the bull- hopefully one of our members can get the pic posted for you.

As for heat exhaustion- I’ve been there and as others have stated, it will affect you from now on and you are more susceptible to it.

Much like a boxer becomes “chinny” after a bad knock out - you need to be very careful especially in the immediate future of putting your body through any heat stress …. Even a sauna could be BAD news!
 
I am getting more curious by the minute. The suspension is killing me. :ROFLMAO:

If you think the picture is to big (file size) and you have it saved on a iPhone; you can email it to yourself….before you hit send; you will be given the option of reducing the file size.

Sending in other sizes help pictures get through , open them and save further on is as usual .
 
re: the heat stroke,

the best way to avoid or minimize is to recognize it coming on and stop what you are doing, pause and cool off as best you can immediately. "pushing thru" heat stroke does not work and if you continue working, hunting etc. without a cool down period you can get terribly sick or die.

re: recovery,

i would continue to use liquid IV or something like that and start with mild exercise like walking short distances with water on hand and slowly build up your endurance. walking with someone would be a good idea at first so they can go get a vehicle if your exercise proves to be too much. i suspect you will get better in small gradual steps.

re: the elephant

congrats! when i had a problem with a video, i had @BRICKBURN help me out, he was a great help.
 
I can try the video if you’d like. And the other pics of you. Just let me know

Thanks your thoughts , are you thinking I should still be going to the doc and getting more IV treatments, I had one IV in Africa. I still feel weak and crappy especially when the sun hits me, though I think I am very slowly getting better.
I will try to get the videos posted. Thank you Sir.

Thank you Sir.
Thanks for the advice, I did a Hocatt sauna a few days ago, but I will forget that idea, I just went to Thermopolis to soak my tired legs in the mineral hots springs , but they were closed, maybe God is watching over me, and yes one of our wonderful members got the picture posted.

Thanks everyone for your help and advice.

That would be great, thanks again Jody, are you the Jody that bought John's 470?
 
That would be me. You sent me a couple videos. I’ll see if I can figure out how to post. No promises. I also have the pics of you after you went down if you want them posted let me know
 
Hey Jody, yes please post anything you can get to go, it was a great experience to be shared with all who have an interest.

Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
