    Future One-Rifle PG-DG Setup

    That is a sad situation that many of us find other selfs in. Just finished my second safari in 30 years and it is unfortunately probably my last. Can't do the mountains here in the US anymore and the long tracking in Africa is tough. At 74 with a bad back and neck, it just isn't going work or...

    Hunting Zimbabwe Matetsi area in February?

    Help Needed: Ethiopian Airlines Business Class to Zimbabwe With Firearms

    I just got back from Zim and flew on Ethopian airlines. I am 74 with a bad back and figured that I could not run to the basement and make the connection, so I rented a rifle. Well, with a 1 1/2 hour layover and a 2 1/2 hour delayed at Dulles meant that I would have missed my connection anyway...

    For trade - One kidney (well used) for airfare

    I don't think the math adds up. The Straits transits about 20% of the global market, right? The pipelines that were in place for years to help with this type of issue transports about 30% of the amount that the Straits. So, why are the prices this high? American airlines said they have no...

    To the poors-I salute you!

    You are correct, however, the average US tourist lets them know just how little they have. It truly is a different attitude of being thankful for what you have.

    To the poors-I salute you!

    If you are going to be poor, the USA is the best place to be poor. I agree about being richer than 90-95 %. I know not a popular opinion.

    The ultimate Elk Cartridge? - Does a Man-Bun make you more sensitive to recoil?

    That is a long reach I think, broadheads kill differently than bullets. Yes, you can do anything you want with your hair. Also, would not every use a ELDX again.

    The ultimate Elk Cartridge? - Does a Man-Bun make you more sensitive to recoil?

    You always have a choice and should not be based on the money you paid to hunt or that was the only shot you had. Not referring to you.

    What caliber would you bring back from the dead?

    Just like most things on this forum....a lot of them have no point. But is still a classic round and the 300 Win Mag can not do the very heavy for caliber bullets....maybe that is the point? I do like them both and have several...again no point in have more than one caliber. Do not about the...
