Assets vs. Experiences- My wife and I often talk about the path we have chosen in life. We have spent a lot of money on travel and experiences. We have been in 53 countries and many of them multiple times. I have fished and hunted all over the world on a middle-class income. We live in a...

There are baiting sites for night hunts used throughout Africa. I have even seen deer style feeders used for Bush Pigs loaded with corn. They hunt from blinds at night. They sometimes scatter corn on the ground around water holes.

I have never shot or been told to shoot the wrong animal. But I was on a hunt for a 35"- 38" Cape Buffalo on a quota. The other hunter on a second quota had a 40"+ bull on quota but he shot the wrong bull so I got to shoot a 40" plus bull. I was charged for the smaller bull.

I was tempted to post a picture of my wife. She is one of my bosses.

When the elephant cow with a calf raised her tail straight out, she means to violently clear a safe path for her calf. She warned them! Stupid is as stupid does.

When I saw the deal headline in the New Post, I instantly thought this must be a small exportable trophy (20 pounds). Hey, this is in my price range. To me this is a trophy but maybe not to the person who can afford a $50,000 hunt for big tuskers. But for a person with my income, it is a...

Coppersmith site says, "Coppersmith enters into a strategic partnership with Honour Lane." It is list in their historical timeline as 2024. I will continue to use them if they keep the Dallas office.

I am considering buying an abused pre-64 300 H&H at local dealer to rebarrel and restock. I want a 458 Win Mag.

I work near the Gaylord Texan so I will attend Thursday afternoon until closing. I want to see a few friends and look for my next big hunt.
