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.

We are very excited to come to Salzburg for the first time.
Should you at all have any interest in hunting with me and want to discuss different options please do not hesitate to contact me and we can set something up.

A two minute video I made of our recent Safari. I think it turned out well

Just received your book. It will be a Christmas present from my wife. Looking forward to read it.
