G'day,

I have been lurking on this forum for a bit now, trying to absorb as many of the "lessons learned" as possible.

I get out a fair bit hunting here on the South Island of New Zealand.....lots of pest control...rabbits, goats, pigs...also deer, and legging it for chamois and tahr on occasion.

I've always wanted to do some hunting in Africa and in conjunction with me being in the region for work I now have the chance to do so as I'm flying out within the week for a plains game hunt in South Africa with Kevin Thomas Safaris.

I look forward to returning in a month and being able to write up a hunt report and some photos from a memorable trip!
 
Welcome to AH and good luck on your hunt. Looking forward to seeing some pictures.

I hope to get down to NZ one of these days. A beautiful country.:)
 
Welcome to AH! I hope you have a great hunt.
 
Welcome from South Africa...
 
Welcome to the forum. I hope your upcoming hunt is a memorable one and meets all of your expectations. Good hunting!
 
Welcome to Ah lakedaemonian! I'm glad that you decided to join, it's always great when I read that a lurker has converted. I look forward to hearing more from you about your hunt, have a great hunting safari. I know you'll enjoy Africa!

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
