Just joined up after finding you guys online. Planning my first trip to Africa for plains game hunting and I've already found a ton of helpful information on this site.
World's most popular community & resource for hunting in Africa since 2007

Welcome, sure glad to have you here. One thing I have learned to take to South Africa is a power bank. I keep it plugged in at all times, then when I come back in from hunting and you are without power, you can still charge your electronics! I believe SA is still on Level 6 load shedding, meaning they are out of power 6 hours a day.

Welcome!
Who are you going with and what questions do you still have?
I did a ton of research on the site and found nothing but helpful experienced people who genuinely followed the "no such thing as stupid questions" approach.
Read a lot and ask a lot of questions. It will greatly increase your enjoyment and greatly reduce your "if only I had known" moments.

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!
