So the family has officially made the call to go on Safari in 2026 Summer...joining the forum to research...

Welcome to the forum.
 
Welcome,

Get ready for information overload.
 
:S Welcome:
 
So I've been excited to do this trip for years and it's a bucket list thing for me. Dad and I grew up reading and talking all things related to African hunting. Now dad's 85 and won't be able to go with us but the boys and I are gonna do it. Cannot wait. More to come but hello!!!!

Welcome to AH! Please let me know if I can answer any questions for you about @JKO HUNTING SAFARIS.
 
Good luck and welcome to the fold.

Please do keep us posted and tell us more about where you are going and what are you hunting.

As well as your means of taking.
Northeast South Africa. Plains game. I’m wanting a nice warthog amongst other things. Boys both want a wildebeest. We are bringing two rifles. .308 and a 300 win mag unless I buy a 375 first.
 
Welcome from Indianapolis, Indiana - the racing capital of the world! ️
 
Welcome. You’re in the right place.

It's a darn shame that your dad can't go along, but age comes with a cost. My suggestion is that whoever isn't on the rifle should be taking photos and/or video of the safari. Not just hunting, but camp, travel, etc. Then do a good editing job and put it on the television where your dad can watch as if he had been there.
 
I would not be surprised if a moderately used large caliber double rifle comes up for sale here soon. Watch for it. No one should go to Africa without a $20K gun. Just not done. :D

Kidding aside, lots of helpful info here. Don't hesitate to ask. Welcome aboard.
 
Good day! Welcome to AH. Enjoy your research!
