    Hmmm...Sable or Lioness?

    I've hunted a lioness before and it was an amazing adventure and I'd suggest that you get it done before the laws make it tough in RSA. Not sure of the fee, but my lioness hunt and a full life size mount was far less expensive then the going rate for a sable bull. I would speculate as more and...

    RECOIL!

    Hey Mike, Moving all the complicated high level math aside, where is my beloved, tried and true Ruger 375? Would love to see the Ruger and the HH 375 side-by-side. I own both and I'm here to say the the Ruger has far more recoil punch then the HH throwing 300 grainers. Safe Adventuring! Gregf

    What Do You Consider Disrespectful Trophy Pictures?

    What Do You Consider Disrespectful Trophy Pictures?

    Wow Jerome, this is a tough subject and one that I’m certainly sensitive to. Personally speaking I don’t like any photo of a hunter sitting or standing atop of the harvested animal. It just doesn’t feel “right” to me. We as hunters are and must be bound to capturing images that are tasteful...

    Cold Hunting Mornings

    If hunting in South Africa and depending on the time of year, two things come to mind; a stocking or knit cap and dressing in layers. I typically dress in leg zip-off cargo pants, a tee shirt and a long sleeve shirt which helps with the cold and the sun while carrying in the truck a medium...

    Old vs. New Model 70's?

    I have both pre 64' and the newer versions in .270, 308 and 3006 and can honestly say that the newer ones shoot tighter groups. My latest toy is a new model 70 feather-weight in 308 and it shoot extremely well and is a dream to carry. Agree with enysse that with the advancements in...

    SOUTH AFRICA: KMG Hunting Safaris Scouting Trip

    The activity details of this report are the results of a last minute decision to stop in and see an Outfitter by the Name of Marius Goosen and his Operation in the Eastern Cape, just 1.5 hours drive from the Port Elisabeth Airport. To start off I had booked a Plains Game hunt in the Southern...
