    I considered starting a thread on the Delta flight from Atlanta to Johannesburg. My gun made it, but my clothes and ammo did not until day 8. My wife and friends went to Victoria falls for a several days and flew back through Joberg and she got my bag and brought it me. I had a set of hunting...

    SOUTH AFRICA: African Wild Safaris Hunt Report

    Skydiver, it was discussed a lot. I believe his offer was accepted but still waiting on details. I too want on that list! Fortunately for them, they are booked solid next year, that means we can't go back until 2028, unless these new areas open up some slots.

    Finally getting this buffalo was a huge relief and cause for celebration. It's been 48 years since I shot my first deer and the buffalo is my greatest big game trophy. To get him with Francois was icing on the cake. I need to give a huge shout out to Wihan the video guy. He does a great job...
