I had the time of my life hunting with @GAME 4 AFRICA SAFARIS in 2023. They are a top notch outfit and I’ve already booked a trip to go back in 2027 with my wife. This is a great deal Wik.

Reading hunt reports from different areas is a great way to get a feel for an outfitter and the area that they hunt. Also listening to podcasts helped me prepare myself and make me even more excited to hunt Africa. (Ph Journals, Around the Fire, and Big Game Hunting are all good ones.) South...

Ammo was received. It was packaged well and shipped promptly. Thanks.

I’ll take it. Sending pm.

Yes it just cleared and I’m sending my final payment tonight. Finally able to get excited about them getting here. I’ll do a write up about the process when I receive them. The baboon made it take a bit longer but it was worth the wait.

Last year was Looking forward to hunting with you and the guys again in Seymour. Doves might not be as exciting to kill as a deer or turkey but hunting with a good group of guys makes up for it.

I received the books and they were all as described. They were packaged well, thanks again. I’m looking forward to reading these for the first time.

I’ll take lot 3.

I really like this pedestal. It does a good job of showing off the size difference between the antelopes you can take over there. I don’t know about your wife but I’ll be looking forward to seeing the eland and Cape buffalo next to it.

I went the first week of May last year and several species were rutting at the time. When I go back in a couple of years it’ll be beginning of June more than likely, did you notice if anything was still rutting or was it over?

I agree with Ontario Hunter, find a way to go sooner than later. Find an appropriate gun that you’re comfortable with and practice off of sticks. If you want to learn how to hunt, Africa is about the best place there is. You will be learning from a professional and will get more experience than...

Congrats on a great hunt, I enjoyed your report. I also loved hunting the eastern cape last year and can’t wait to get back. Kudu and bushbuck will probably always be on my list of animals I want to take. Kudu are majestic and bushbuck seem to really make you work for it. What were the dates...

Congratulations on your retirement, looks like you’re going to really enjoy it. Can’t wait to read about those trips and hear about the buffalo hunt with Wik.

My crate of finished taxidermy is sitting in Chicago right now with agriculture holding it up. It’s been there since Monday and still no word on it. I’ll be posting a thread detailing costs and the experience once I receive it.

I’ve found that Aguila shoots dirty but has been reliable for a cheap ammo. Sk has been the best and cci has always worked well for me.
