I'm getting close. I depart Seattle on July 12. Jet Blue flight 264 to JFK. Then South African Airways filk 204 to Johannesberg. Anyone else on the flights?

I'll be hunting with Chamanzi Zulu Safaris near Pongola in the KZN. I haunted with them in 2009 and had a blast. I'll be after Kudu, Nyala, Bushbuck, Mtn Reedbuck, Gemsbok and Steenbok. I may take 1 or 2 more. I took the 3 Spiral horns last time. I had such a blast hunting them (Especially the Bushbuck) that I want to hunt them again.
 
I hope you have fun! Yes, bushbuck hunting is addicting :p!
 
I ve also hunted near Pongola, at the MKuze Falls PGR.

Nice Bushbucks in the area. Good luck !
 
Looking forward to your report, have a great trip!
 
Nothing like a spiral in the horns to get your blood going.

Happy planning and waiting.
 
I'm on south african flight 208 to johannesburg flying from washington/dulles. Close but no cigar:D
 
I hunted near Pongola earlier this year. I took a nice nyala and a SCI Gold reedbuck. Much different than other parts of RSA with the humidity and bugs, so bring your gear and skin sprays. I didn't see any gemsbok there but tons of nyala and those bushbuck hid very well! Best of luck!
 
Well I'm down to 8 days. Can't sleep. Shaking. The fever is bad. treatment is close.
 
Hang in there 1/2 slam, little under two weeks for me now as i leave on the 15th .... same symptoms
 
One more sleep :rolleyes: I'm like a kid on Christmas eve. Is it morning yet. Are we there yet.
 
Safe Flight and Good Hunting

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
