    Last day of Safari sadness

    I felt the same thing in July of last year when my wife and I were returning to San Antonio from our first safari. In the airport whiskey lounge waiting for our flight home, we were already planning a return trip in 2029 or 2030. Long story, short. We’re headed back in July of 2027 and...

    Hunting with Semi-Automatic Rifles

    We use the heck out of them for shooting feral hogs here at home. I put one together for my daughter in 6.5 Grendel and with the adjustable stock it’s perfect for a smaller statured person. Jake

    Who wears shorts on Safari?

    If rockin’ the shorts is wrong, then I don’t wanna be right! Jake

    Hornady interlock, have you used it on anything?

    I’ve used them in a handful of calibers over the years and have not had problems, but I stick to heavy for caliber bullets when using the Interlock. Jake

    21 days with Mark Sullivan

    That was rough. Sadly it didn’t seem like the client ever took much notice of his own poor shooting. Jake

    Buffalo and Croc With Bronkhorst Safaris

    The wife and I attended a DSC chapter event last night and put in a bid for a Buffalo and Croc hunt with Bronkhorst Safaris in 2027. To my shock it was the winning bid! Before putting in the bid we did some quick research on the outfit that seemed to be pretty favorable. We just go back from our...

    Who to use to get trophies home?

    Have you emailed Trophy Shippers? I just received my crate from our July Safari and we used them. I tried getting someone on the phone a few times but never received a return call. My emails however were always answered quickly. Jake

    Best factory 30-06 ammo for plains game

    After seeing how my wife’s .308 performed this past summer with Federal Terminal Ascent, I’d look at this round hard. Her Eland took one step before dropping after she fired. The bullet holds together amazingly well, and her shots touch each other at 100yds. Jake

    In search of a proper belt

    Tucker Gunleather makes the most bullet proof belts I’ve ever owned. My current daily wear belt from them was bought in 2016.
