    CANADA: Off To Nunavut For Arctic Island Caribou & Barren Ground Muskox

    Sorry to heat of all these mishaps! Hopefully all will be sorted out! Btw, your hunt is very interesting. Question: Hunting at high north in this time of year: what equipment, gear and clothes did you prepare for the trip?.

    @cmk @Frederik Thank you friends! the story is a year in the making, based on short notes in diary in two languages i took in the evenings. Plus mix of photos from mobile phone and camera that needed to be sorted out I thought, a hunt of a lifetime deserves nothing less. Btw, ivory now is...

    ZIMBABWE: Elephant On Fire

    ZIMBABWE: Elephant On Fire

    That sable now gave me a motive to find a roan somewhere in the wild. Sable, roan and Letchwe, noble antelopes, I never wanted to hunt in fence. I was always interested to learn local superstitions and beliefs. Once I started a thread about it...

    ZIMBABWE: Elephant On Fire

    You have touched one of my second thoughts. Boddington wrote, something along these lines - one of hunters he knew, shot an ele at 200 meters, but this should not be the rule, as DG hunting is close range affair. And I think that too. Maybe somehow, I missed that part of DG hunt. My buffalo...
