Congratulations! Great report, thank you both for sharing!!
 
Awesome read, very happy that you had a great trip and that Mathew helped to make your trip a memorable and successful one .. thank you both for coming out and hunting with us , we certainly aim to please and trust you’ll be back one day ..
 
Thanks so much for your report. As many have already mentioned the back and forth format was appreciated! What was your favorite part of the trip other than the actual taking of the elephant? What was your least favorite part? Is there anything you would have done differently? Thanks again. In Wisconsin from the shores of Lake Michigan, Brian
 
Great report!! 1st rule of travel to Africa. Everyone carry’s there own black pen!!! Lol
 
Excellent report. Congratulations on a fulfilling one of your life goals.
 
No matter how much you beg, no one will let you scoop up a baby goat to take back to camp to bottle feed. (There were plenty of little baby goats but they said no to all of them)

The trick is to pick the goat up when it walks into your tent. ;)

Oh my goodness!!!! I was not that lucky. Only a lizard came into my tent! I tried persuading Matthew. His wife wants a baby goat as well. I offered to bottle feed and love the baby goat until it was time to leave at which time he could then take the baby goat to his wife. It was win-win in my mind. :D
How lucky you are you got to play with one! :)

Thanks, Ed!

I am working on uploading pics and the video. The first week we were home, I worked 6 days that week so I am just a little behind. :E No Expression:
One of us will post the link to them all once I get them done. (y)
 
Oh my goodness! I laughed, I chortled, I loved your story. @Just Gina , I loved your previous report, but you really outdid yourself this time!! So funny. You are unapologetically you and not afraid to let the world know. Michael, excellent writing as well. My hat is off to you for a wonderful report and adventure. Most of all for putting up with your lovely wife. Thank you both for filling my evening with laughter.
:E Rofl: Glad you enjoyed the report! Michael is a really great sport, that's for sure! I do not get to see him much at home so, I only get to pester him on Sunday mornings if I am not at work however, I do wait to pester him until he has slept in. :)
 
I may grow old, but I refuse to grow up. I wouldn't trade the 'pestering' - playing, for anything in the world. Even when I get grumpy- that beautiful smile with the prettiest dimples in the world, cheer me up right quick. @Just Gina -thank you for making my dreams come true!

Still got Elephant bulls moving through and visiting the crops albeit the crops don’t look too great in some parts this year ... but at least the bulls are moving ..
 
Congrats, thanks for the hunt report!

Congrats on your experience !

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
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
