Live and hunt in BC Canada. Usually costal bear in the spring, and deer/elk in the Kootenay's in the fall. I am an avid outdoorsman, and I take pride in trying to control as much of the process as possible when I hunt.
-I make the ammunition
-I shoot the game
-I gut/skin the game with a knife I made
-I do my own butchery with butchery knives I made
-I do my own sausage making
-I BBQ it in a stone BBQ I made
-I server it to my friends sitting around a table I made, on a patio I made and on and on...
I am here on the forum to learn more about hunting in Africa, as I am a novice there. But I am a pretty good guy to talk to about deer/elk hunting in the mountains, or about competitive shooting/marksmanship
