RANCE SAFARIS Awesome!

John gave a great accounting. I did an auction donation hunt with Kuvhima Safaris... was a good deal and let me add some animals. All said and done $25,000 was my approximate cost as well. So for 2 hunters from leaving the US to Animals on your wall I'd say thats a fair estimate. Then work...

Thats awesome!

I used 250 Gr. Barnes, now you already said you haven't had mono metal group well. But one shot did my Kudu and same with the Gemsbok. I tried the same bullet type 150Gr. in the 308 and found on the lighter animals they just didn't expand quickly enough with lots of poke throughs.... I just...

My wife and I will stop by for sure! First SCI Convention for me.

I did very similar work to what you're thinking.... the kudu on a pedestal is awesome... but adds a lot to the shipping cost if you do the work over there. I want to say shipping/customs to my door in Kansas City was about $4000. Crate was about 6*3*4

I have no idea why they had to go and ruin Ice Cream.

I was lucky enough to draw Area 32 this year... definitely looking for pointers! I'm going to get a Muddy Mountain area pass, but anyone who can narrow down some good areas would be appreciated as I won't get a scouting trip in prior to season. Anyone else draw WY this year?

Yeah put me in the 2X1 camp. Took my Dad to SA last year in April and he just wanted a few animals, he took 2 and I took 5. This was over 7 days, we really enjoyed the time just hanging out and riding around together. Some times he stalked with us sometimes he'd hang around the Bakkie and...

That impala is exactly my ideal, the tips pointing back out are fantastic... I didn't quite get there, however I admire my pair every day.

Last April 9-21 in Limpopo we saw both a puff adder and a black mamba... if I recall correct the mamba was actually on the road to Kruger.

Great report. Love that figure 8 kudu.

Picture 8

Best Thread ever. Justin, you will certainly be at the top of the stack when planning my next trip. Thanks! Justin

I took my 9.3 to RSA last April just for the Kudu. I ended up getting a Gemsbok with it as well. Its a CZ550FS.
