What are the more important features that you look for in a hunting lodge?

What about additional activities available to you on your safari?
An option to play golf, go fishing (deep sea), mountain biking, some shopping at the local stores (maybe more for the ladies) a trip to the beach a day excursion to a local wildlife reserve for photography, sky diving, bungee jumping or maybe even a local museum or exhibition of some sorts, seeing local schools and development programs. Do you consider these types of options or is it simply "Iam going to Africa to hunt, so hunt is what i'll do!"

Kind regards
Jono

I know for some folks, these extra activities are must haves, to make a complete trip.

Myself, well, I am reminded of a line from the John Wayne movie "The Quiet Man". "When I drink water, I drink water. When I drink whiskey, I drink whiskey".

The only two ways I would choose a non-hunting activity are: 1. I am out of trophy fee money, or 2. My wife makes me! :)

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
