Hey everybody my name is Bridger

So just some background I live in the western United States. I love hunting and most of my hunting experience has been with mule deer, elk, pronghorn, ducks, and mountain lions. I am currently preparing for a hunt in South Africa in September. So it looks like there is a lot of experienced hunters on this forum so any tips or advice would be great. I am super excited to hunt in Africa and excited to be part of this forum.
 
Welcome aboard!
 
Welcome to AH.
You may find a few folks here that have been around the block.

Where are you hunting? and by that I mean with whom.
 
Welcome to AH

I am actually a Utah boy. I will be hunting with subscription hunts Africa.
 
Well I've surrounded ya. Lived in Idaho to the north and now to Arizona to the soutch.
 
Welcome to the forum sir!

Have a great time in South Africa, and enjoy embrace every moment - there will be lots of them!
 
Welcome to AH! There's a lot to be learned looking through old threads and just ask any questions that come up as you prepare for the trip. My experience has been if you ask a question here you'll soon get several good answers. A few tips: treat all your stuff with permethrin for the ticks (you're going to see a few), shoot off Africa style sticks as you practice, take LOTS of pictures, plan on a few extra animals after you get there and become awe struck and finally - you may as well start planning safari #2 while you're at it because you'll go back.
 
Welcome Bridger, enjoy the site. I too will be hunting Africa for the first time this September.
 
Welcome to a great site.
 
Gday bridger

Welcome Bridger. As mentioned already you will no doubt begin planning the second hunt before the first one ends. What animals do you plan to hunt while in South Africa.
 
Welcome! !!

Enjoy the planning too!
 
Welcome to AH Bridger! As others have said browse and search the site, lot of valuable information here. Nice to have you with us.

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.
