NAMIBIA: KHOMAS HIGHLAND HUNTING SAFARIS With Philip Hennings

Some more random photos of the Khomas Higjlands experience....

The Zebra Rug will become the centerpiece of my new retirement "Man Cave," immediately opposite, my Golden Bear rug... I plan to create a "happy place" with North American mounts on one side of the room and African mounts on the other side, and a big screen TV opposite a couple big leather recliners.
Yeah, good luck with that. I envisioned doing something similar (minus the TV) and it didn't work out quite that way. I came to realize that I can shoot as many "taxidermy-worthy" animals in 10 days of safari as in 10 years of hunting at home. Unless you concentrate solely on the "Tiny Ten" animals, Africa can take over a trophy room very, very quickly.

Some great photos by the way!
 
Your hunt report was a very enjoyable read and I really liked all of the photos you shared (I never take enough). Congratulations on your hunt trip! I liked the look of the terrain where you had your hunt.
 
Great report and looked to be a lot of good times!

Not in this case... the NA side of the room is already taken care of... Africa has some catching up to do...

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
