ZIMBABWE: Nyamazana Elephant Hunt - Happy Birthday To Me!

Congrats dude!
 
Royal27,

I agree with others who have said, "Outstanding"!
And congratulations.
Likewise I agree with you in that, trinkets can be taken away or disappear for any one of a number of reasons.
But, the creeps cannot take our memories away.
You are an excellent Scribe and as always, I thoroughly enjoyed your posts here from your latest safari.
Thank you for posting it all.

Kind regards,
Velo Dog.
 
Thanks Paul!

It was an honor for sure, and I hope to do it again someday. The lack of trinkets has been interesting. It's allowed me to tell the story of why I hunt whenever the "did you keep the tusks?" questions are asked. This is a story I wouldn't have had the opportunity to tell had my answer to the tusk question been a simple "yes."
 
Congratulations on a wonderful experience.
Well done! Thanks for sharing it with us.

Excellent interaction with Hollywood's brain wash victims out there.
Many people here, including myself salute you for it.
Also, Happy Birthday !

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
