Hello everyone, I found this website during my frantic search for more info on all things Safari after a good friend introduced me to Peter H. Capstick by sending me "Death in the Long Grass", which I consumed within a few days. Suffice it to say I have been losing lots of sleep catching up with PHC's other works! I've been hooked ever since and now we're looking into a safari plan within the next couple of years. I come here in hopes of learning from and enjoying comraderie with those who are inflicted with the same bug.
Thank you,
JDM
 
PHC is a good read. Several times. Welcome to the forum.
 
Welcome to AH JDM! Please send some San Diego weather eastward!!!
 
Welcome to AH!
 
Thanks Phil! RE: Weather, hah, ok, but where I live in the County it was 107 earlier this week....
 
I have it on good authority that JDM is "in rut" for some good safari stories.
 
Welcome to AH. You have found the place to start your planning.
Have fun.
 
Welcome to AH JDM! You've come to a good place… looking forward to reading your posts.
 
Welcome to AH !
 
Welcome @JDM. You've definitely come to the right place. I found this site a little over a year ago and am flying out tomorrow on my first African safari.

The safari planning guides are an outstanding place to start. The countless hunting reports will give you a great idea of what the various outfitters offer in terms of accommodations and game. And the members here are a wealth of information, having hunted in almost every country in Africa. You'll even occasionally hear from legendary PHs like Ivan Carter on this forum.

Sounds like El Cajon or someplace east of there.
 
JDM,

:S Welcome: Enjoy the Forums.
 
@PHOENIX PHIL have you heard anything about flights getting delayed out of PHX due to heat? We're flying out tomorrow....

Hi PaulB,
I have a Ballard Arms Model 1885 chambered for .333 Jeffery Flanged. Do you have any idea where I can get ammo for this?

I am new to this forum so I am sorry if I am doing something wrong!
Thank You!
