I took the advice of the "Hunt Doctors" Stephen I. Merlin M.D. & Paul A.J.Plante M.D. who wrote an article for
"SAFARI The Journal of Big Game Hunting"Official Publication of Safari Club International. In the article they discussed acclimating yourself to the time zone in which you will be hunting by actually mimicking the time difference and your sleep patterns for several days before you leave on your trip.
In other words, for a few days before you leave, put yourself on RSA time.
I understand that not everyone may be able to do this because of family obligations,work,time constraints etc. I was lucky enough to be able to try it and it did work for me. I was able to sleep well there from day one onward(although a bit jet lagged for a day) and was up "bright eyed and bushy tailed"
I am physically allergic to simple drugs like aspirin and penicillin so I tend to shy away from the use of drugs so, I welcomed the Hunt Doctors advice and was happy it seemed to work for me.
Have a GREAT TRIP BILLC & SON ! Can't wait to hear all about it.
