Mozambique Pictures

[Pheroze]

I love the terrain, great picture. The area seems very dry. Is this a typical winter scene?

Pheroze, this is on top of an iselberg mountain, not much grows on them, down below pretty green.

buffybr , last report 3 leopards hitting baits.

GREAT!!! That's the best news that I've had since last week when I got back my Passport with the Mozambique Visa. I'm ready!!

Look at that picture, it doesn't look like I need to pack my rain suit.

Looks that you have a fine operation going there Simon.....beautiful country..

I have wanted to hunt Moz since reading Jose Pardals book about (elephant) hunting there from the early sixties up to 1975..

One day..

@Pondoro , it has taken me a few years to be able to produce these safaris, elephant and sable I am 100% sure of but on leopard, always a great chess game. I am busy playing the chess game with my ph's from 2750km away, but I have full faith in them.

 

[siml]

Thanks for the vote of good faith.

 

[Pondoro]

You are velcome.....what kind of elephant trophies can be expected down there..?

 

[siml]

70 plus is what we aim for, I have seen 90-100 pounders, one 90 pounder plus charged me with a bow hunter, stood 5 yards from me in a mock charge, bow hunter couldn't take the shot.

 

[Pondoro]

Those are awesome trophies...

 

[siml]

We only hunt 3 elephant a year.

[siml]

Speaks for itself.

 

[Pondoro]

I'm ready to rock. I'll crank the poundage up when I land in Moz and we can go for a rematch!

Brickburn,,,,,,Solomons will win..

 

[Bsums]

Thats some really nice ivory! Whats the chances we'll every get it past USFW again?

 

[enysse]

NOT VERY GOOD, Bsums.....we would have to have a whole change of order in Washington DC.
