You left out Montreal. Years ago, when Quebec was trying to leave Canada, the word was everything east of Quebec would have to join the USA as they did not have economy to stand on their own. Now, Trump takes a shot at little Fidel and Canada is in an uproar over being called the 51st state...

The latest gossip I heard was Houston 2028, until then Atlanta

You mean like the UK? The UK seems to have done fine outside of the EU. Of course, they too have an immigration problem, like Germany, Sweden, etc. All my European friends can't stand the crap that comes out of Brussels.

No inside information, but if you look at the 990's of DSC, HSC and even SCI they are not actually flush with cash. I suspect, DSC will have to stay in Atlanta (for the big show) next year and maybe the next and next before they would have the free cash for a buyout and to find adequate space...

I will be passing on that opportunity. Too afraid that Legacy might only be for a few years. Either me or DSC could be dead.

That's what I heard too, along with a price increase for booth space.

Flexner report in 1910 closing down more then half of the medical school in the USA and "encouraging" to affiliate with a University did not help either.

I just received my copy of "Lone Star Outdoor News." DSC has a one page ad for their new "Summer Expo & Gala,' July 17-19 in Grapevine. I wonder how many of the overseas outfitters are going to give up a week in the middle of their hunting season, to fly back to the USA for a show?

Need for more Physicians? It's cost prohibitive. Here's the cost for the one of newest medical school in Texas. Dell Medical School at the University of Texas at Austin The cost of this medical school increased from $334.5 million to $436.4 million. The project included a medical office...

All of central and South Texas thought it might be true. Johnson locked down the report for 100 years as he said it could start a war. He brought a lot of the he killed Kennedy on himself by doing that.

If I was starting out, knowing what I know now. I would purchase a switch barrel rifle that will accept at least a 375H&H barrel.

With that kind of time, you could easily make a day trip to most places in the west and southwest parts of Germany. ICE trains are fast and easy, but do need a seat reservation.

I’ve used TripCase and TripIt. Unless you use TripIt Pro, it does not have the flight updates.

Not yet, maybe later this year. https://travel-europe.europa.eu/etias_en The UK is already in effect.

What carrier is flying from LHR to Windhoek?

Lots of companies offering two or three day Serengeti and Crater tours from Arusha or JRO.

In 1999 I had the chance to shoot some at my bosses friends ranch as they were a pest, but I did not go. My boss shot 20 at a total cost of two tanks of gasoline. Now, a single one can start at $6500.

Now he needs to change Fort Hood back to Fort Hood.

That depends on your time of arrival into JNB. My BA flight when they were just starting the bio-metric crap, it took about three hours to make it thru the line. My Qatar flight, which arrives first, I went thru the line faster then the VIP folks and beat them to the SAPS office...

My list: North America: B&C Elk B&C Pronghorn Rocky Mountain or Desert Bighorn New Zealand: Tahr Africa: Grant's Thomson's Lessor Kudu Gerenuk Rowland Ward Buffalo Nyala - only if I have to make another trip to try again for a RW Buffalo, if not successful this year. Europe: Alpine Ibex

I think most prefer Emirates & Qatar as : (1) early morning arrival at JNB, no overnighting in Jo'burg (2) Better food (3) Better FA service. (4) The lounges in Dubai and Doha are the best you will find anywhere. Of course most are flying Business. ECO is ECO. Direct/Fastest is best when in...

No, but I had a similar problem as you as no stud centered where my Kudu was mounted. I tried several drywall hangers but there was too much forward weight. I bought a plaque and mount the plaque to the studs and then a bolt into the plaque. It looks like a plaque mount from a distance, but...

You lost me on that. Yes his Ph.D. Is from a foreign (Hungry) university. Not sure, if that’s a Research degree or not. Most European Ph.D.'s are research and not up to American Standards Ph.D. Jill had an Ed.D.

That's a lot of water in your pond.

San Antonio maybe sold out but the Hill Country chapter is not yet. Dinner is in Kerrville near main James Avery. Boerne (78006) and Fair Oaks (78015) zip codes fall into both San Antonio and Hill Country chapters marketing zips codes. I’ve been to San Antonio several times, it’s never been...

Well not exactly, Obama had been elected before, twice!

Unfortunately, what you are proposing is just not possible in Tanzania. The government licenses and fee are expensive. For example, a lessor kudu requires a [emoji638][emoji637] day license premium. That’s an extra...

When I was in Croatia, my guide had a Hikmicro scope that had built in video. Quite impressive, but looks like bother available in the USA.

Quite a few of us that live in Fair Oaks and Boerne. San Antonio SCI and SCI Hill Country have dinners coming up. Along with South Texas DSC.

Welcome fellow Texan. Where in Texas are you located?

Correct. City Lodge or Intercontinental are the easiest.

@buck wild that is an impressive spread.

I've heard that that Emirates, might be behind the Gaza deal.

I am going to update my prior response. I use two credits cards regularly and one in reserve for emergency. My two main cards are (1) Chase BA Visa - no foreign fees and (2) Amex Platinum Card -no foreign fees. If you transfer the points to a foreign carrier frequent flyer program, you will...

I think when you look at the percentage of known terrorists entering the USA, most enter from Canada - 86%. In 2022, 380 terror suspects were stopped at a U.S. land border crossing, and 82% of them came from Canada. In 2023, 564 terror suspects were stopped at a U.S. land border crossing...

My two cents. When I was first starting to look at an Elk hunt, all the outfitters in Montana told me I needed a 300WinMag, so I bought one (it's still new in box). I called a New Mexico outfitter and he said my 308Win was more than enough, and he was right, dead elk. In fact, it also killed...

I listened to that. (1) 40% of the membership is from Texas, that's a lot of Texas foot traffic. (2) I did not hear the reason San Antonio or Houston was dismissed. The 800K SF that DSC uses also includes two food courts. San Antonio has 1.5 million SF and 500K continuous SF Space. The food...

Correct, they were too white.

That is a beautiful gun.

My mounted over my TV. Ceiling is ten feet.

Just north of SA too. There are SCI and DSC dinners coming up very soon. Great way to met fellow hunters that travel internationally and want to travel.

He's full of Sh*t. I am sure my brethren will certainly give it the college try, but no cigar for all of Mexico and Central America.

Normally, but I would say DSC. It’s the first show, you will have first shot at hunt dates. Unfortunately, DSC show for a variety of reasons might no longer be the best show to attend, particularly with the distance you are traveling. Of course if the show was back in Dallas, that direct flight...

Sorry, no news. But it's doubtful that DSC "bought out" their contract for next year, maybe 2026 and beyond. However, it's hard to get convention dates as those are booked years out. I think the outfitters and others will be back next year, the weather played a major factor in attendance...

I would suggest both sides of the falls. A overnight trip to Chobe in Botswana, so you can see the elephants in the evening cross the river. Helicopter of the falls.

Worked so well with their neighbor Zimbabwe, they have to duplicate it.

@Philip Glass, you are correct, considering SCI/TTHA next year has booked "F" which will give them the same footprint that DSC used in KBH. I am afraid that DSC decision to head to Atlanta for 5 years will be the death knoll for DSC. 2030 will be interesting with DSC and SCI/TTHA both booked...

I inherited a M77 tang safety in 270. First shot always on, second and there after not so much. They have a trigger part recall, I have the replacement trigger part that I will have installed. But the real problem with those guns are the barrels. Not sure who made them, but fairly worthless when...

I heard that. And that Barry is banging Jennifer Aniston, which she denies.
