So, according to this logic bows don’t send arrows fast enough with enough damage? I have shot an elk with 7mm rem mag. But, last summer on a tiny ten specific hunt I took a kudu at 90 yards with a 6.5 creedmoor ELDX one shot. DRT My two youngest daughters two weeks ago shot two impala, a...

I live in South Carolina--it feels like 100% humidity most days... I have a Benchfood dryer box and I have had great success with it. Toasting the coriander is the key to authentic taste in my opinion. I have used multiple cuts of beef and as others have stated I don't care for venison white...

We also travelled into Botswana and Zimbabwe and Zambia and had no issues at border crossings in terms of these types of forms.

I flew into JNB on 21 June and left 1 July 2026. I didnt have any form and there was no kiosk and there wasn’t anyone asking if we did. Last summer I filled it out on line the day before arrival to JNB but I was never asked for it.

I spent a few days last week in Chobe National Park. I don't believe we saw a single bull that would go much over 40". But there were some truly amazing bulls that were no longer with cows that were amazing. I am not sure I would have measured any...but I surely would have pursued a few!

My first hunt was cut short by Covid. We spent three days before the alarm came out. I hunted three days in the blind for many hours. I returned dour months later and got him on the first sit. So the fourth day but there were two trips.

Quick update landed in LHR this am at 625am. Hit the Heathrow Express at 805 and we’re downtown in 15 min. Hopped on the Big Bus group which is hop on hop off style bus. Went to Burrough Market for some food things we’ve been seeing on YouTube. This was a fantastic side stop. Did the blue...

we depart Friday--wife and two of our children. Traveling through London with a long layover and onto RSA, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Zambia!! Best wishes to you guys!! And you are right about first time safari!!

Jennifer has been my go to for travel to Africa. We leave in 10 days again and she has handled everything for our trip quickly and efficiently. She saved me on two prior trips thru Namibia and I would highly recommend Travel Express!!

Cape Grysbuck and blue duiker along with oribi are all cool critters on the cape!!!

Also, we are flying through London with a long layover in 2 weeks--what all are you planning on doing in London?

hunt the vaal---fantastic hunt for a really cool animal!!

I harvested one last year at the Eastern Cape. I shot a 6.5 creedmoor with sig sauer optics. The shot was 405 yards with a 5 mph cross wind. It was a dedicated small animal hunt for me so that was the reason for the CM. They are beautiful animals and the terrain is much different than most...

Looks like you are correct!!
