TANZANIA: Back From The Selous

Congratulations on an excellent safari and some very nice trophies!

Looks like you picked a great spot. Thank you for the detail. I was fortunate to hunt RSA last May for my first safari.

I am diving into research for my next safari and Leopard is on the list but your dry land hippo experience sounds exceptional. Tanzania and the selous is looking really nice. My ole lady would love Zanzibar as well and your culinary experience in camp also apeals to me.

Was that Calgary AB you flew out of? Your route sounds like part of the adventure!
 
Hey man thanks, yes we flew out of Calgary AB. Zanzibar was definitely a nice ad on and we would definitely do that again.
 
Great report. I’ve found it’s hard to think about heading back to Southern Africa after hunting East Africa.
 
Wonderful hunt report and first trip! Proper buffalo and that old hippo is an excellent trophy. It sounds like you will never forget the experience. Will you return?
 
Amazing adventure and If I get to go back, it will be once again to the Selous

Terrific hunt... congrats on a great experience with your family.
P.S - no DNA paternity test required there! Lol.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
