Hello From Virginia

[Pat McP]

Good Morning all. I've been glued to this forum ever since I decided to take a trip to South Africa this up coming October. There will be six of us going on the trip, my parents, my wife and my two brothers with my wife and mom not hunting, however I think I might be able to convince my wife to at least go on a hunt with us and maybe just maybe harvest one animal.

We already have the tripped booked with Stompiesland and are starting everything to prepare. I will probably be developing the rifle loads for everyone so that is my next project on the docket. Feel free to add advicebut I plan to dive pretty deep into some of these threads and forums.

It really is crazy. I spent 2 hours readying just hunting reports yesterday. It's almost as good as hanging out by a camp fire.

Welcome Pat - Congrats on booking your trip!

Pat McP, welcome to the AH forum! Remember, Africa is like potato chips, ie you can’t eat just one chip, nor can you go to Africa just one time!

I know, now that I got my wife to okay this trip (still kinda amazed she is going) I'm trying to get a Cape Buffalo hunt in the 5-yr plan. My wife went from begrudgingly coming on this trip to watching Cape Buffalo hunts with me on YouTube.

Welcome aboard Pat McP. There is a lot of information available to you by using the "search" function. Has anyone mentioned "shooting sticks" to you yet? By far the vast majority of folks on AH are those that you would enjoy sharing a campfire and a beer with. If there are questions that you can't find answers to, just ask and we'll either answer them or tell you where to look.
