With all the travel caveats in place, the last hoop to jump through was to get a PCR test in order to fly this week to South Africa. After a restless night, my results came in this morning (PCR Negative)! I can breathe and make my final preparations for my flight this Friday.

I will be hunting with @KMG Hunting Safaris. We plan to fish and go to a game reserve as well. I will post a report upon my return.
 
Cool brother ! But I gotta ask bc maybe I've been misunderstanding, but I thought the PCR test to be within X hrs of entering the other country, not just leaving the country of origin. Am I wrong on that ?

What's the "list" ?
 
I'm excited for you. Enjoy yourself.
 
@buck wild ,

Everything I understand for SA it is 72 hours before your departure from the US.

Going for Vaalie, cape kudu, and cape bushbuck
 
Congrats, and good luck! Looking forward to seeing pictures and reading your report. :)

I can't wait to see the reports - hunting and travel.
Best of luck!
 
You’re heading to a great place and will have an awesome trip...wish I was going! Have fun!
 
Well, like every time I get back, I am wishing I was still there and planning the next one!

I will start a report in the coming days, I had a great time with Marius and enjoyed seeing a new part of South Africa (Eastern Cape) that I had not previously visited!
 
Looking forward to your report!

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris
