Great video - Very informative Philip! Thanks for posting
 
Philip: thanks for sharing. I am headed to Alaska next fall on my first hunt that requires flying. This answers many of the questions l had
 
Excellent sir! But, you take substantially more than I do. Being much younger, you can probably haul it around the airport easier than me!

Thanks to you and (I assume) your son for the great info!

Looks good, very basic and too the point
My daughter packs more for an overnight trip
Yes tried to keep it short and to the point. No time to discuss each and every thing.
Thanks!
 
Great video and breakdown for packing. Now if only I could get my better half to adhere we would be golden.
 
Great video! Perfect for beginners and even old hands, making sure nothing is forgotten.
 
Thanks Philip. A great video.
For those planning a safari, watch this video over and over. Philip has it pegged.
 
Wade— normally gaiters are shorter than u use for snow—idea being keeping stickers and thorns from working their way in to your shoes. Just make sure they aren’t noisy. If nyon try using downy fabric softener to quiet them down. Philip— nice job— missed u at Dallas. Hi to the family. Jacques
 
@Philip Glass
I noticed you mentioned gaiters. What type of gaiters are used for this type of hunting?
I always use gaiters but ones designed for snow or water more than anything else.
The lightweight ones from Boyt are pretty good but there are leather ones as well. Africa Sporting creations and others have them. You only need them if wearing shorts.

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
