Sir, I used this case to fly from Japan to Johannesburg with no problems. Packed my clothes around my bow for protection and worked fine. Actually the airline counter folks were surprised that it contained archery equipment since it doesn’t look like a “weapon” case at all. SKB cases are...

Did my first trip to South Africa last September after decades of dreaming about it. Plotting and planning another trip this September again, talking to a couple of outfits now…nothing concrete yet….still a maybe. But can’t stop thinking about it! Looking forward to reading about your trip later!

Sir I’ll send a dm to you. Appreciate your time.

Hello, I’m wondering if anyone has hunted with this outfit? I would like to hear of any first hand accounts if possible. Thank you for taking the time to read this post… Bowbenderjp

John, Thank you for the reply. This is from a few years ago. This article gives an insight into how things are here. Basically the country is not gun or hunter friendly, definitely no bow hunting. No outfitters or renting a firearm even if you have a friend here who has a gun license. There...

Thank you for the reply! Wanted to reply back to you in a timely manner, appreciate the recommendation! Currently looking over several outfits now, and Limcroma is definitely on my list. Again thank you and I’ll send a question or two here shortly. Respectfully Bowbenderjp
