I didn't think to mention it before.
But getting our rifles through customs in Atlanta took all of 15 minutes.
Mid week and only 2 people ahead of us.
Very smooth and easy even with the boot spray down.

I don't know how I missed this post.
Congrats Wade it looks like you had a great time, as was expected. As you found out Africa can grow on you.
You need to post up over on Eastman's, they love this stuff.

Thank you @JimP . I'll post it up over there in a couple of days.
You've been an inspiration and great help over the years in this hunt and others I've done.

Looks like a good trip! I've hunted with Johan twice, and met Henry on my first trip there in 2018. Good guys!

Looks like you and your son had a great 1st safari. Now that you have been to the dark continent you will dream about going back until you do go back. Thanks for sharing.
