After 5 trips to Africa in 18 months I was able to take my leopard in Sept of last year. I spent 190 hours in the air, numerous hours in a blind, ongoing shipping cancellations, Covid and a year later he arrived.
Very thankful to have him home and thought I would share some of the photos of this awesome mount.

Yes sir! I must say they have gone above and beyond during the process.
 
Great cat, everyone has a unicorn. The stories leading up to this moment for you must be epic.
There are many good stories over the 5 trips in such a short time. However other than bait my focus was 100% on leopard and did not pursue any other animals.

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
Remember I will be at the ISE show in Denver Colorado for 8-12 January, and after the show I will be available for meetings anywhere in the USA I will traveling around to meet with old and new clients, let me know and we will set up a meeting!
Beautiful Aardwolf for our Spanish client and good friend Alberto

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!
