Nice, congrats !
You bet. Knowing I would only take one lion in my life and knowing I could not import I wanted to do something special. I took great pictures with my nice Cannon Rebel Camera. I then selected the best one and googled artists that could produce an oil on canvass painting from a picture. I chose a 48 by 48 size and paid $400 for an absolutely incredible painting perfect in every way. I then paid $1800 to have it professionally mounted with distressed olive wood

Looks awesome, better is every time you look at it those lifetime memories will return front and center. Lets not forget how many times you get to re-tell the story every time someone sees it and asks.
Well done.

Preparing for the adventure of a lifetime. Looking forward to my 2026 Africa hunt with Van Wijk Safaris in South Africa.
What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.
This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.
We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
