First I wanted to thank everyone one on this site for all the help. I have learned more than I ever imagined from yalls experience.

I graduated college this past Friday and will be going to Namibia with my father, brother in law, and my old pledge brother to celebrate. I am lucky to have a family that supports my dream of always wanting to hunt Africa.

Philips operation at @KHOMAS HIGHLAND HUNTING SAFARIS seemed to be just what I was looking for - As hunting big low fence cattle ranches in South/West Texas is what I do.

We will be flying to Dallas from San Antonio and then jumping on a long Qatar flight to Doha tomorrow at 11:50pm or so. Thanks to Jennifer @TRAVEL EXPRESS for all the help.

Kudu and mountain zebra are all I can think about. I am brining my Ruger #1 in 30-06 and I am confident with this rifle. CDS dial is true and might be helpful up in the Namib Highlands.

Not sure if I will wait to get back and then post more, but I may just have to share some pictures while I’m in Namib! Stay tuned!

Hello dchum,

Congratulations on your graduation from college.

I bid you safe and happy travels plus, safe and happy hunting.

Your choice of rifle and caliber are both excellent.

I look forward to your hunt report and pictures.

Best Regards,
Velo Dog.
 
Looking forward to the report as this place has been on my Top 5 for awhile.
 
Looking forward to the full report @dchum !! Safe travels friends.
 
What an awesome celebration for graduating college. Best of luck on your trip and definitely post a hunt report.
 
Enjoy your safari!
 
Viva amigo
can’t wait for the full report and LDP’s

feliz Caza
 
Congrats on the graduation. What a feeling that alone is. Best of luck with your future plans. As for the hunt - best of luck and have safe travels. Look forward to hearing all about it at a later date.
 
Your a lucky man! I’d go back and hunt with Phillip every year if I had time. Amazing country and wildlife. Hennings take care of their clients. That’s big boy country and will test your marksmanship. Zebra shoulders are like concrete. Kudu bulls can hide like you can’t imagine! Grub and facilities are perfect. Phil usually has one or two other groups in camp. Always an international experience there. I’ve hunted with Phil two hunts that equaled a whole month including leopard. Your about to have the time of your life...
 
Congrats and you are in good hands with Philip and company

Quite a few years ago my son and I took our first safari to Africa in Namibia in the same general area you will be hunting. Kudu and mountain zebra were also our primary targets. Can't wait to hear about your experience.

Out of all the different color variations of Impala the black Impala just stands out with its beautiful pitch black hide.

Impala is one of the animals you will see all over Africa.
You can see them in herds of a 100 plus together.

This excellent ram was taken with one of our previous client this past season.
