SOUTH AFRICA: Hippopotamus Hunt With Pawprint Safaris 2017

I really like the story and how you kept us going little by little. Sounds like a hell of an adventure and memories to be made. Congrats on it.

Thank you sir. I had a good hunt and I'm looking forward to the next one!
 
Charlie if you had a twin pipe buddy that hippo would have had it. I've always said that's why we all go hunting it's the chance of it either going to plan or not. That's what keeps me on my toes anyhow
 
Great read Charlie - thanks for taking us hunting with you!

I'd take your hunt any day, over a quick trip to the pond to pop a hippo.

I especially liked watching you running from that angry bull!
 
What a great story sir, thank you so much for sharing, oh and making me laugh. Reading about you running away from the p*ssed off Hipo, sounds hysterical after the fact, but I am sure it was all business during that time. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Too bad you couldn't connect, but that is why they call it hunting and not shooting. There is always next time. Good luck to ya, and hope you can make it sooner rather than later. (y)(y)

Thank you both. Hunting is a great joy in my life and sometimes the biggest joy is trying after you fail. There is always next year.
 
Yes sir, you are absolutely right with your statement.
 
Another option for the next trip.
 
Good one Wayne!
 
I've always wanted to hunt hippo on dry ground, now I want to hunt hippo in an urban environment! Lol. MOUT Safari for all the ex-grunts out there.

@norfolk shooter the two pipe option would have been great but @edward hasn't sent me the double yet.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock

Hello there. I’ve been wanting to introduce myself personally & chat with you about hunting Nilgai. Give me a call sometime…

I saw you were looking for some Swift A-Frames for your 9.3. I just bought a bulk supply of them in the 285g. version. If Toby's are gone, I could let 100 go for $200 shipped you are interested.
Thanks,
Gary
