Very excited to try Eland and zebra in a few weeks! As mentioned, Eland is apparently very good. I did not get a chance to eat any last trip over, but everything else was great. Impala, Blesbok, gemsbok, kudu, it was all great. We had bushpig ribs one night that were amazing.

I paid less for a 3 bedroom 2 bath house on 10 acres. Wicked cool gun though.

Enjoy!

Looks pretty awesome!

We are on the same route, so I will let you know. I had Gracy do all my travel paperwork so I reckon it'll go smoothly.

Appreciate the recommendation, I will keep that one in mind! We do have plans for a dinner out. Sad to hear that about Joe's as that came recommended as well. Might stop in just for a beer to check it out.

Appreciate you all! I'll be shooting the 458 today with my dad, and organizing more gear. I told my wife to start laying out all of her stuff as well. One big thing for me is that I have to buy all new clothes. I've lost 120 pound since my 2024 safari, so none of that stuff fits anymore or...

Howdy all! I've been fairly absent on here over the last few months. Work has been crazy, we are in a period of unprecedented growth at my company. I am now managing 8 inspectors over 15 states, all while managing my own inspection territory while we look for my replacement! If only I could get...

Fooled around and got myself promoted in August of 2025. Money went up, time to hunt went down! Will turkey hunt April with my dad in IL and MO. Big ticket - 21 days in Namibia in May. Starting in Caprivi for buffalo, then moving down country for plains game. Few days of relaxing /...

Would be a fun rifle to play with that's for sure. Hogs, deer, bear, steel. Wonder if there will be one at SCI to handle.

Figured I'd revive this old post for an update. I got my tooth aging results back on this bear and he came in at 12 years old! I sent the teeth off to Deer Age / Whitetail Analytical Labs out in Montana. I've become a regular customer there, I think its fun and interesting to get the age...

Field Ethos has collaborated with Sauer on a rifle in 9.3 called the Exception that is super slick looking. Right around 2500-3000 in cost. I've been pondering one for myself. I think it would look sweet with one of Leica's new glossy scopes on it. I forget which model its built on, whether its...

Very cool!

What's funny about shooting this beast here in 2025, is that I just got 2023's bear back a few weeks prior and hung on the wall. Time for another!
