SOUTH AFRICA: Mountains & Valleys

thanks for the invite Bruce- all I can say is that if I actually lived over there I'd be flat broke. Of course you have to come to the this side to hunt whitetail deer, elk bighorn sheep .... who am I kidding !! ;) I'd rather be in Africa !!
Seriously, for those that might know- what are the rules for living over there for 4-5 months of the year? Work restrictions ? I could see myself spending some more time over there in my retirement based on whether I could actually work some while there.
 
Nice report and pics, what an adventure. Congrats!

Good stuff... not 100% sure of the work/ residents permit laws but will get somebody to find out... I am not i RSA at the moment and probably only back there early next year, pre- my Feb hunt in Zim.

After I repaired the tips and rebuilt the bases- right at 60" on right and 59" on left !!!
 
Can't say I'm big into the "book" but I don't often kill a top 20 either :) Just confirmed through a Master SCI scorer and submitted my paperwork to SCI: #12 Southern Mountain Reedbuck. 16 6/8.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
