On my first safari, in Zimbabwe, I took 16 trophy animals and 5 or 6 bait animals. Highlights were a 58 lb elephant, a big tom leopard, 2 buffalo that were both over 41", a 45" sable, 54" kudu and 31" waterbuck. That hunt was 24 of the very best days of my life, and still stands as the finest hunting trip I've ever enjoyed. We were not focused on inches, but things panned out very well and I came home with some splendid animals.
 
9 in 10 days of hunting however only 2 were trophys. The rest were culls.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
