90 days and counting! Time to start packing!
 
Good deal. Sure your excited. You shooting your 416? What else is on the hit list?

No taking the new 375 H&H Mag this trip. Roan and night critters fro Pieter's Sunset to Sunrise hunt. Taking what the bush gives me!
 
@CAustin dont forget to stand your ground if it all turns south! Should be an awesome hunt cant wait to see the pics and read the report. How are you thinking about having the trophy done??
 
Have no fear @norfolk shooter, the river horse will go down! I'm not apt to pull a billc exit stage left move. Besides with Pieter around one has a sense of confidence about things.
 
I need to know what happened with Mr Capwell and the giraffe!
 
Maybe best not ask:whistle:
 
You hunting on land at night Charlie?

Pieter has planned a day hunt when you can judge the trophy best and get a big male. To much risk at night on taking a female since you can't always judge the hippo.

As for my massive huge trophy male bull giraffe well lets just say I see him every day after taking him. The true story is classified info and only told once a year in a paw print camp
 
Should be exciting. One good thing about my night hunt with Marius, if for some reason we shoot a female I'm not responsible for the trophy fee.
 
@CAustin How much longer left now buddy??
 
CAustin I can't wait to hear how that 375 does on those night critters just to find out if I need to get some special light loads made.

I guess you're getting things packed and re packed now? I'm getting excited and it's still 6 months out for me! :(
 
Charlie,

Be careful on the hippo hunt and avoid any that have swallowed a chainsaw......:)

 
That's some funny sh*t right there!
 
I don't get why women can't see the humor in farts

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
