Enjoy the planning, its half the fun!
I'm there right now 11days to go every day is like a week long.
A Winchester model 70 .375 H&H, I know it's big for plains game but it's the only bolt gun I need to buy for Africa and it will work just fine. Topped with a Zeiss Conquest 2x10 and Zeiss Terra Ed binos. Let the debate begin!
Oh I know there is and quite frankly I am reveling in it! Now I just need to put in that extra overtime...
I hope you are right, and wrong. Thanks!
Good Luck and good hunting! hope it goes by quickly to get there and slowly once you are there!
Well I was thinking to go after Nyala on the second trip. Of course I'm taking enough cash to pay for it if a record book one walks in front of me.
Take extra money because you will see other animals you will want bad. Like a nice Waterbuck/Zebra/Red Hartebeest/Blesbuck/Springbuck then there is the Steenbok, Diker and such. You will want to bring some porcupine quills home. I brought mine in my luggage wrapped in cardboard.
Take hard candy for the help. They really like that. Take clothes you can leave for the help also--T-shirts, pants, socks, shoes and such.
Take good binos for yourself and a rangefinder if it is spot and stalk hunting.
Did I mention to take extra money for more animals and things to bring home
As to the extras, I'll talk to the marketing guys at work, I'm sure I could load an extra bag of stuff if I wanted to. I have good binos, and if I need a rangefinder it's farther than I want to shoot. Thanks!
Thanks! I'm not even looking for anything huge, just a good hunt.
Great set up, and it is a little known fact that the .375 H&H was spec'ed out by our lord JC himself. He put everything smaller on this earth for shooting rodents, vermin and Taliban and such. From field mice to Cape Buffalo, you are in good hands with a .375 by your side.
