I am all for doing some taxidermy in Africa with a reputable taxidermist. I would not personally mount anything this big and try to ship it. I will be interested to see what the cost is

Solids are old news. Very, very old news. Use the TSX and it will do it all.

Make a comprehensive list of questions and then attend SCI in Nashville in February. You will have much confidence in your decision this way.

I like this color. Mine is more of an orange tinted clay color and it's just ok. I've not seen many trophy rooms that are done in dark colors. Must be a reason for that. The mounts pop with a lighter background I think

I'll be listening! York Mare will be on one soon. I love to hear my friend's voice! @DALTON & YORK SAFARIS

It will work well for buffalo and with TSX you don't need any solids. I ran a 400g TSX all the way through a buffalo from the rear end only stopping in the opposite shoulder. Again no need for solids! It is not ideal for leopard but should be fine.

There is a huge difference between private land and government owned land in many respects. There is also a big difference between South Africa and other countries. There is poaching everywhere. My friends who raise sheep in South Africa and Namibia have sheep stolen and slaughtered from time to...

Not necessarily. Private land can have many restrictions as well. The big difference, and why we are all able to have so many hunting opportunities, is the law in RSA that allows full ownership and control of game under fence. This is why most of it is fenced.

Yes. That is what is properly termed a concession. You will hear many uninformed hunters call private land a concession especially in South Africa. It is government land under a lease agreement with an outfitter. Namibia has a tender process where they bid on the concessions. Most countries have...

One thing about hunting overseas is that you are too far from home to do anything anyway. My only trouble is getting into the third week away from home really gets me homesick. Two weeks and I’m good but that third week does present a challenge.

Schalk is a great guy! Glad yall had a awesome safari.

This should fall back on your outfitter. They are the ones who live there and should be responsible.

I would hunt a different area next time. Since you will be traveling a bit this should not be a problem. Maybe look at Hunting the Eastern Cape and then touring.
