WOW

Great pictures - thanks for sharing

Very nice !!!

For me - pretty much anything but Barnes - had some very poor and inconsistent performance from some of their bullets - and I've got a memory like an old Jumbo, just hard to go back. In my opinion, there are monometal bullets out there from other manufactures that are every bit as good or even...

My wife is an on and off hunter - sometimes very into it, hunts herself or very supportive - other times, not so much , so... we plan simultaneous activities. I hunt Africa, with one of the daughters. And she goes/travels with the other daughters or girlfriends to a destination of interest to...

Welcome ... Couple of hiccups in your questions - the one that jumped out at me was about the package vs. day rate/trophy fees. A few lines earlier you mentioned that you had no set species list. Most outfits will be pretty flexible - but usually a package hunt is just that - inclusive of day...

I was lucky, on my first three African hunts, I was able to meet my outfitter in person, and each time was able to spend a considerable amount of time with them before we ever hunted. I was able to assess them, they were able to assess me - we had frank discussions about what they had and what...

looks like that - just checked Sorry about the misinformation Unfortunate - very talented taxidermist

seeing that you are coming west ... Artistic Taxidermy / Brian Dobson in Edmonton is as good as it gets, especially the NA stuff. Like all top notch outfits, quite backlogged, it'll take awhile and a few more bucks than the other guys, but usually worth it. African stuff - Orion Taxidermy /...

I'll take a look and see what numbers I have - haven't opened a Barnes manual in a long long while - they might as well be in the hands of some one who would use them. Although I have absolutely no idea how much it would cost to send them from Western Canada to Arizona ... probably more than...

Hmmmnnnn .... sounds like you need a .280, that would solve your problems, lots of bullet selection Given - you won't buy ammo in just every store

Wouldn't expect anything less, when you employ the services of a top notch reputable outfit. A lesson in there for all them guys that are looking for the lowest price - quickest work. Anything I've ever seen from Animal Artistry is first rate. Look like awesome mounts, congrats

Interesting thread - Maybe getting a bit off topic ... but thanks to Derian Koekemoer Safaris for posting those buffalo pictures. Those are my kind of Buffalo - you have my full attention !!!!

Kind of one of those questions - where you get the answer if you read the airline policies. My experience is that half the airlines don't know their own policies. A few airlines, state in their policy regarding ammunition, that handloaded ammunition is not permitted. Have yet to hear of...

An elephant hunt of any kind is a long long ways down my list of priorities. Like a couple of guys mention - can do several plains game adventuress for the price of one elephant hunt. The truth of the matter is, I'm an antler and horns guy. Big bones have had me captivated as long as I can...
