New lady hunter from the PNW!

Greetings all! I’m new to the site and to Africa hunting in general- my husband has been talking about going back to SA since his trip in 2016 so I’ve suggested a return for our 20th anniversary in 2021. And, being that I do not do well just sitting around and he’s my best friend, I’m going to be a hunter and not just an observer!!
So- Im here to listen, learn and ask questions. Glad to be here and excited to plan this adventure!
Good day Victoria D, a warm welcome to this site, I am sure you will enjoy it and that you will find your best fit solution for your anniversary.
Have a great day

Welcome! I grew up and hunted not far from Springfield.
 
Welcome to AH Victoria - Good luck on getting a trip together for 2021!
 
Welcome to AH
 
Welcome to the AH community. I look forward to your post and perspectives. What a fabulous way to celebrate your upcoming 20 years! Congrats!
 
Welcome to the family and the forum @Victoria D, you are in the right place! Nothing like AH for information and getting people on their way to Africa.

Whenever your ready we would be happy to help you with your planning.
 
Welcome to AH Victoria! Glad you found us and joined our community. Enjoy the site and have fun planning!
 
Welcome Victoria
Lovely to see a lady on this site.
 
Welcome! Glad to have you aboard. You'll find this is a great community of shared knowledge, and mutual respect.

If you have advice or ideas on encouraging more women to get involved in hunting, we'd be glad to hear. I'm working to get my wife more interested, and have a toddler daughter I hope and pray becomes an outdoorswoman.
 
Welcome to AH. You will have the time of your life without a doubt. Lots to see and do and 7 days will fly by that why I always do 10 days . Lots to think about for sure just be sure to ask lots of questions if your not sure. We only charge Observer fee for Spouses that want to hunt too. PM Sent

Welcome to AH.
What a wonderful way to spend an anniversary. My wife is a non hunter but my 15 year old son hunts. Even tho my wife is a non hunter she fell in love with Namibia, it's people and the animals. You being a hunter will probably love it even more.
One word of warning that all will agree with is once you have been bitten by the African bug that sit you will want to return. It's an unavoidable side effect.

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!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
