    Get experience first? Or, hunt dangerous game right away?

BTW - the Swahili word for "Journey" is Safari... 2) A PH taking a newbie client on a dangerous game hunt is a very different dangerous game hunt than that same PH taking someone with a lot more experience with a gun, in the bush, around other...

    Want To Buy Double Barrel Shotgun For Dove Season (under $1,000)

    I'm heading out the door so I'll make this succinct. 1) Do him a favor and don't get a SxS...get an O/U - most people just shoot them better...SxS guns are, for most folks, an acquired skill. 2) Increase your budget to $2k or a hair more and get a quality gun. If you buy a new $1k gun, it'll...

    GPS Watch on Safari?

    I did that. I used the GPS as an alarm clock too since it is always "tuned" to local time. No regrets and the PH didn't care.

    What to wear when the heat index is labeled "Hell"

    Dry heat is different from high humidity heat. I was outside in 72 degree weather this past weekend, changing a starting relay in a Yamaha 150, not terribly exhausting work, but had with sweat dripping from the tip of my nose and making my glasses side off.

    Religions, Evolution and related Sciences

    Here's how I try to understand it - For God to "prevent evil" would be to forcibly control the actions of those willing to do evil. But, forcibly controlling the free-will of others is the basic definition of evil so God, being Holy cannot. But he has offered an eternity to those who believe...

    Religions, Evolution and related Sciences

    I didn't say that the core samples were faked. I said, time could have been different or even non-existent back then. If so, we'd never know it. Again, God is the God of time. So, arguing 6,000 years or 6 billion years is meaningless. That's my only point. The larger point is that it...

    What bizarre theory? I plainly said, "I don't know"...The age of the Earth has no bearing on my faith in God.

    Then God could have chosen to "break" those laws during Creation?

    Do you believe that God can supernaturally touch a bullet in motion and cause it to "break" the laws of physics as we understand those laws?

    I don't know how old the Earth is and none of y'all do either. I do believe God is the God of time too and that God himself is timeless. In other words, those photons from the Andromeda Galaxy could have traveled that distance at a rate that we would now say exceeded the speed of light. Or...

    What Type of locks for Gun Case and International Travel?

    When I flew Delta to SA, they send me a text (through their app) every time the gun moved so I knew when the gun was in the cargo hold. It was an added level of comfort. Per Delta's requirements, I used non-TSA locks on the gun and ammo case.

    The pleasure of fine things

    Oh, one more thing @Elkeater - you can save a little money by not getting the upgraded stylist. There are three ways (undo, select the erase function or select and cut) to erase things easily without paying $50 for an eraser. And don't bother with the "portfolio" or type-portfolios. A got one...
