…tomorrow, 18 Aug, 19 year-old son and I are heading out for our first safari, 18 months in the works.
Matwetwe Safaris, SA, 10 days PG, and whatever Africa has to offer us.
I am so looking forward to (and not!) sitting my ass down on that 30A seat, ‘cause then, nothing else matters but getting there.
What an awesome forum, I don’t think we could be more well-prepared, thanks to everyone.
I’m a bit of a writer, so, stay tuned…
 
Excellent! looking forward to following along
 
Enjoy that seat, its worth it once you land
 
Good luck and safe travels. Will be looking forward to a report when you return.
 
Wonderful you can take such an adventure with your son!! What's your number one trophy you are looking to take?
 
In pecking order: kudu, gemsbok, impala, blesbuck, warthog and a day of bird hunting.
Then, perhaps a zebra and whatever else SA might offer us.
More interested in the whole safari experience, w/my son, than a big pile of dead critters…
 
That is a great list of animals for any hunter going to Africa!! I was super fortunate to hunt Africa with my Dad 3 times, I will always cherish those memories, as will you and your son. Congratulations again to you and your son!!
 
Safe travels.
Have Fun.
 
Safe travels and enjoy every minute.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
Remember I will be at the ISE show in Denver Colorado for 8-12 January, and after the show I will be available for meetings anywhere in the USA I will traveling around to meet with old and new clients, let me know and we will set up a meeting!
Beautiful Aardwolf for our Spanish client and good friend Alberto
