    I'm a new member from Washington State and was ask to tell about and post a few photos from my 2 trips to South Africa.
    First of all, a huge thanks to all the people that have welcomed me to this site. I appreciate It greatly! It's great to be able to share your experiences with other people that enjoy hunting and can actually relate to and appreciate what your talking about in regards to Africa hunting!
    I've been two times. Once in 2006 with a discounted giveaway hunt through SCI and John X Safaris. On that hunt I met the owner of a video production company that specialized in creating hunting videos(dvds for the outdoor stores) and shows for the outdoor channel. He and I shared a passion for archery hunting ( I run a professional photography studio focusing on portraits ,commercial photos and photojournalism). Two years late we were going back to produce a South African Archery Hunting video and show with a crew of 16 guys and once again John X safaris.
    I am going back again in 2016 for my sons high school graduation. This time I will be returning a lot more educated as to what trophies are and to focus on creating memories for my son and I that we'll never forget!!
    Here's a few of the animals I shot on my trips.

Thanks for the pictures and hunt report. A lot of animals taken, the kudu is very big.
 
Thanks for sharing your photos.

All the best.
 
Love that Bushbuck. It is interesting to see how the hunting changes as you get more informed.

Thanks for sharing your pictures. Hope the next hunt is even better.

it would be a safe bet that that your young fella wishes he didn't have to do 2 more years of school ,while waiting either
 
Great looking animals!
Going to Africa to hunt is a GREAT experience.
Doing it with a bow makes it even greater in my opinion.
Taking your son with you in 2016 will make it even better :)
 
Congrats for these nice trophies, and thanks for sharing !

I would be interested in it if you pass. Please send me the info on the gun shop if you do not buy it. I have the needed ammo and brass.
