    Any good non-fiction books about African safari hunts, etc?

    Physical Preparation for Africa?

    The injuries are old injuries, the oldest being 15 years ago but it still results in me not being the most balanced person when it comes to being on my feet. I do however spend plenty of time on the shooting range. I think I probably spend more time shooting that many people do working.

    Physical Preparation for Africa?

    This was good info for me. I've shattered my left ankle and leg and tore multiple ligaments in my right ankle so I'll keep your advice in mind.

    Physical Preparation for Africa?

    It looks like I might be able to schedule a trip to SA next and I want to make sure I am physically prepared for the trip. What does everyone do (aside from normal exercise) to physically prepare for their hunts? Any advice and recommendations would be appreciated.

    Photography in Africa?

    Brickburn, Any way you can retry those first few attachments? They don't seem to be working for me. Where in SA can you see penguins?

    Photography in Africa?

    Landscapes, local villages, famous locations, etc. is what I would be looking for mostly. For animals, etc. I would probably just set my cam gear up in a blind with me while hunting.

    Photography in Africa?

    James, The plan is to be in the Limpopo region of SA but this isn't to say I would be completely against making the trip to another region if it was worth it. Anything that you look at and think "that is cool" is what I would be looking for. Diamond mines would be nice, I'll bring my shovel.

    Photography in Africa?

    I'm currently working on the details of planning a trip for next spring or fall to South Africa and the idea hit me last night that maybe I should consider going for two weeks instead of one.
