another thumbs up for Swift dip. I have used swift dip for my most recent safari--great communications and waiting on Dennis to communicate he is ready to start...

DO you have a good African taxidermist in your area? (Ie, within a day's drive?)
If so, get them sent home and mount them there. Simply too much variation in African work in my opinion.

I see this an old thread that has been revived. My two cents ( probably one cent) is to bring them home period. I realize by now your hunt is over and I am curious as to what your decision was.

Yes, bring them home. If something goes wrong, you have a fighting chance to get them fixed. Fat chance if you deal with Highveld Taxidermist. Their solution to their sh*tty work was for me to ship the mounts to them and pay the shipping & return.

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?
I am possibly going to book with him soon.

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
