My wife Janet, great friends Wendell and Tammy Anderson and I returned from a Safari @Limcroma Safaris earlier this month with nothing but high praise for Hannes's entire operation. From the top down they are first class, any praise that can be given has already been heaped onto this group in spades by so many, and we would especially like to thank Dan Leahy, their US rep, he is truly johnny on the spot when you have a question or concern, as well every staff member at Sable Valley camp had the same attitude!

A great example is less than 2 weeks before our trip, which was to conclude with a few days at Victoria Falls, we found out that the airline we were booked on for the RT from Joburg to Vic Falls went belly up with little chance for any refund, but Hannes and his staff found alternate flights in the nick of time, and we were able to spend 3 incredible days at one of the most stunningly beautiful places on this planet.....if you have not been there it is worth every effort, IMO.

Another highlight was meeting a wonderful couple in camp from Springfield, IL- Gary, aka "Ike" and Jolene Eichelberger and hope to spend some time with them in the near future.

Yes, the hunting was fantastic, my PH, Mr. Franco, was even better, chalk up another new friend for life!

I will post a few pix when I finally show up at my office next Monday, the WIFI at our rural ranch is worse than the good old dial up days :-)

Thanks again Limcroma!

… cool, I’ve never seen a double broken Kudu bull! What a Warrior + gotta respect the recurve & feather fletching gear.

Hi Ladykiller, did you take your Cape Town trip before or after your safari? We are heading back next year and want to spend a few days there and are trying to decide on heading there first then camp or afterwards.... any input would be appreciated
 
Congrats and thanks for sharing!

Thank you for the wonderful report Mr. Gary!

It was a pleasure having you all in camp. We are already looking forward to next year's visit!

Thanks, Ladykiller, sounds like something Janet and will be trying to fit in as wine is definitely in her vocabulary!

Hannes, you are more than welcome, and as we told Dan we only spoke the truth, you have quite an operation, we are looking forward to next year as well!!

Here's a photo of Tony receiving that Shaw & Hunter award at the 1970 annual EAPHA Dinner Dance. Tony Dyer, then EAPHA President and Princess (Sunny) von Auersperg presented it. I also attended the event.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ
