Hello everyone, I'm Jake and I'm quite obviously new here.

I am an avid hunter of whitetail deer here in NC, though I have dreamed of hunting the Dark Continent ever since I was old enough to read Craig Boddington's articles in the various magazines my father got. I'm hoping to plan my first plains game hunt in South Africa in 2019.

I look forward to conversing with you all and learning a lot!

Welcome to a great forum! Enjoy the experience and hunts of others.
 
Welcome to AH, Jake!
 
Thanks all! Didn't expect there to be so many Tar Heels here!
 
Welcome! Enjoy the planning and anticipation of the future Africa hunt! It's half the fun!
 
Welcome to AH sir! My wife is from NC as well.
 
Welcome aboard Jake! I just hope you are a true Tar Heel, and don't support that other university down the road from Chapel Hill!

Grew up a Carolina fan and went to school at Appalachian State. No love for any of the other schools in our great state!

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...
Behind the scenes of taking that perfect picture.....

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris
