Thank you! I have learned more about Africa hunting in the last 6 months then I ever thought I would. I am pretty excited and glad to be part of the group. I will be sure to post a ton of pics and will try not to bore everyone with my write up, haha.

Good luck. I go on my first one in June and I passed carried away 6 months ago. Lol. I know what you mean, I want one of everything. It started out as a lion/buff hunt. With a kudu and zebra for the kids. We've added springbuck and bushbuck to the hit list and God knows what else once we get there.

Gizmo just wait till you get there and see sooooo many animals. The temptation to keep shooting is great sir. Keep adding to the list as you never know when you can go back.

I think the best thing I saw here was pick one or two target species and if the tracker/ph get excited over an animal, shoot it and worry about the bill later.

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!
