Glad it worked out with all your gear being in Edmonton. Hope you have a great hunt. I look forward to reading all about it. Thanks for sharing.

I am with @LivingTheDream, I’ve heard it more times than I can count. If it’s from somebody who actually hunts my answer is “It is, let me know when you’re ready to go and I’ll help you make a plan.” If it’s from a non-hunter, my answer is “ it sure is” and I leave it at that. I know what I do...

All are good bullets. Which shoots best in your rifle? I prefer the Accubonds.

@JHT, those look great. Looking forward to hearing how your upcoming hunt goes.

I had a similar experience last year with the same bullet out of my 300 Win as well. Blue wildebeest and a red heartabeast. Preformed flawlessly.

Ammo is SPF. Thanks

Pork chop, okra & maters over rice and corn on the cob for supper tonight. It wasn’t terrible.

I have had a pair of leica geovid for a couple of years now and have taken them to Africa 3 time, Alaska once and Utah once on hunts and they have worked great. I sue them all the time deer and pig hunting here at home as well.

An oryx in Namibia in 2009. An old, heavy bull with a broken horn tip on one side. Shot him with a 300 Win at about 100 yards. Was shooting 200 grain TBBCs, loaded by Federal. One shot and done. That Browning rifle and those cartridges served me very well for many years. Only rifle I’ve ever...

Best athlete I’d say Bo Jackson. Best competitor in their chosen sports, Joe Montana, Michael Jordan, Tom Brady, Derek Jeter, Greg Madux. These are some to come to mind. Obviously I am biased based on my age and who I watched regularly growing up.

Another vote for the Leupold VX5 3-15 firedot. I have those on most all my rifles.

That’s what we call them too is bee liners. You’re correct, they are as good if not better than the snapper. More liberal size and bag limits as well.

Yes sir. A mix of those and American red snapper.

What a great idea to put this type of hunt together. Congrats to all who participated and organized such a successful safari.

Turned these into a few good meals last week. Blackened and fried. A nice pasta salad as a side.
