    Well Virgin Atlantic broke the center support off of my bow case last year. It survived 5 other overseas trips, just fine. Fortunately my husband is taking the crossbow and I can use the SKB case.

    Sorry bud, but I am voting republican again. It would be far worse if we had democrats back in there. Things are happening now because of the previous democrats, they just kept the pot simmering, now it is boiling. We are heading to JNB in the beginning of August, not too worried about things...

    First Post – Planning Our First African Safari

    Many Outfitters have a rifle. Some charge and some don't, like my husband used a 30-06 for his black wildebeest when he was hunting with his compound bow. Our outfitter did not charge extra.

    First Post – Planning Our First African Safari

    After our first safari, my husband swore he wasn't going to make that flight again. 2 weeks later he realized how relaxed he was in South Africa and we were already planning another hunt for 2 years later. Wish we had researched a bit better. Our first PH was an excellent bowhunting guide, but...

Low fenced areas are quite difficult to hunt and are more costly in the long run. With a group, a good outfitter will help plan and should...

    First Post – Planning Our First African Safari

    Well, we are pretty much neighbors. Just live across the border in Missouri. We are getting ready for our 5th African hunt in August. We have taken everything with bows and arrows except a Black Wildebeest, only because they don't move around much out of the plains. I am 65 and my hubby will...

    SCI Recordbook Trophies' documents held up from South Africa in US Customs

    Our taxidermist got our trophies finished in a little over a year. They were shipped to the US on a Delta flight and landed in ATL on the way to Memphis, where my customs broker is. She is great and has taken care of many shipments for us. The South Africa permits and CITES were sent ahead of...

    Well boys, what's your temperature like now?

    I hope girls can respond too. It is 68 here in Missouri. Worked in the garden today in a tank top. Waiting on a call from my importer to pick up last years SA trophies.
