SOUTH AFRICA: Paw Print Safaris & Me Hunt 2016

Can tell this report is going to be very detailed!:LOL:

Congrats on your first day Charlie.(y)

Wait to your hear the details of Matador Senior Peiter Erasmus and the deadly Blesbuck. Has nothing to do with nap time being over but it was funny to watch!

Ok you have my attention! Look forward to the details on this!
 
Sounds like another "plains game gone wild" story. Geez the Giraffe haven't even seen Bill yet and all hell is already breaking loose... :Arghh::Arghh::Arghh:
 
Lee when are you guys leaving?
 
Tues... 4 days. Will get to see Charlie for a few days and the 48 animals that he is on pace to harvest :-)
 
Wow what a great start. Way to go Charlie. Nice animals so far. Bruce
 
Two nice trophies down, how many to go? Sorry your planned hunt for "spots" fell threw. Oh well, there is always next year.
 
Awesome sable Charlie! I love those old bulls with heavy bases. Looking forward to hearing the rest of your report!
 
Man that's awesome day one and you got your sable! Very cool and congratulations!!! You definitely deserve a good hunt!

Well today broke the pace. Anything I aimed at I missed big time. In fact, you could say that if I had been inside a barn today I could not have hit the roof. Well tomorrow is another day.

I did some of that too Charlie! You ain't the only one...

You'll get'em tomorrow, remember a clean miss is better than a bad hit on a non recovered animal anyday of the week. Been there, done that.
 
We all have days like that! Relax tonight and go get em tomorrow!
 
A good Kentucky Bourbon by the fire at Flintbeck Lodge and I am now relaxed and ready for bed!
 
Good luck tomorrow. New day with new opportunities!
 
Good luck Charlie
 
Nice sable Charlie

We will call this one the five mile zebra because that's how far we had to track him! Mind you now I was way behind Pieter and the tracker Max! The left front leg was shattered yet this thing kept going but finally lay down in a field of tall grass. Pieter and I stalked up to him when he jumped up and ran some more with bit he of us shooting at him. He lay down again and I put a shot through his neck to put and end to it.
Tomorrow we will be hard at it again.
 
You look tired Charlie? Lol. When I hunted zebra in Namibia they gave us hell! Always on the move. Truly a worthy adversary. Congrats.

HI all, here is a Short update on our America trip, I currently in Houston and have 2 more meetings here before movings North toward Oklahoma, Missouri and Iowa, and from there I will head to Colorado and Idaho,I have been met with great hospitality and friendship, and have met several new and old clients and we are going to book the rest of 2025 season quick and have several dates booked for 2026!
That's a wrap, on our first hunt of this years season.

Hunting conditions are a bit tougher in South Africa during the month of February, but can be just as rewarding if done right.
