Wow, nice Lechwe. Gorgeous sable too. In the top 2 or 3 of all PG animals IMO.

As far as looking up coordinates, iPhones will store that with almost every photo you take, worldwide. If you click on the photo you can see all sorts of data. As for cell-phone coverage, it’s surprisingly good in the parts of Africa I’ve been to - even in the Caprivi. It borders on...

There’s no way I would be comfortable with that layover on an international flight. There’s no way I would travel to Africa with rifles without using a travel agency understands the issues. Without rifles, sure. Domestic flight, maybe 45 minutes is enough, but even then it’s risky. Apart from...

I did one solo DG safari, all the while trekking through airports on 3 continents with a rifle. Despite that, I found it to be rather relaxing. :)

I’ve hunted with a suppressed .375 H&H Sako in Namibia. It was handy enough, but it might be a bit cumbersome on a long stalk through thick stuff. It was pretty pleasant to shoot and accurate too. Got me a klippie at 250 yards smack square in the vitals. :) That said, I see a .375 H&H as a...

Go. Have fun. Repeat.

I love that ship. As of now, it’s the only active USN vessel to have sunk an enemy combatant. Happy Memorial Day everyone.

So here's some perspective. We had some friends come visit us in the rural Rocky Mountains from overseas. They had never been to the Western Hemisphere before. They were pretty nervous about crime in the US from what they've seen on the news. I sort of laughed it off, but it did get me...

I second that. Hunted with him in 2022 and had a great time.

There are a lot of possibilities here, and there’s a chance you’ll find something that works well. I’ve been shooting a .416 Rigby (400 gr at 2450 fps), and if I’m not careful, I’ll can sometimes get a headache too. I’ve mitigated this by shooting off of the sticks, videoing myself shooting to...

For me it's a 21" barrel with a 5" Ultra 5. :)

I've probably taken the most game with my walnut-stocked Wby MkV in .300 Wby. It's roughly 10-15 years older than I am, and I've owned it since the 1980s. It's been re-stocked once and re-barreled and re-blued once. It's been to Africa 2 or 3 times and all over the Western US. More recently...
