Leaving September 29th returning October 24th. Hunting with Riaan and Henk of Bosveld Jacobs Safaris.
Been thinking about this trip since I started hunting Africa 20 years ago and planning it for last 2 years (Since my last Safari). For those that are interested, I’ll try to report all the planning effort and details that got me to my flight today out of SFO at 5:00pm.
Hunting with Henk Jacobs in Moz.
Hunting with Riaan Jacobs in Bots.
Hunting with both brothers Riaan and Henk in SA.
I’ll be hunting:
Buff in Moz - Coutada 10.
Ele in Botswana - Tule Block.
PG in South Africa - Waterberg Mountains.
In that order.
I’ll be looking for interesting PG, more Tiny 10, small cats, Hyena, and anything else opportunity presents.
Bringing my Left Hand SAKO 85L in .375H&H and my Left Hand 450 Dakota. I’ll report on bullet selection and load development later.
Not sure about you before a hunt, but I could hardly sleep last night. Up till 1:30am double checking my paperwork, gear, packing list, and thinking about this trip.
Flying Emirates through Dubai with a 3 1/2 hour layover to arrive at JNB at 5:30am. Morning I prefer to arrive in Joberg in the am and not stay at a safe/guest house and waste another day… Plus Emirates is one of the best airlines in my opinion.
Airlink to Beira. 12:55pm from JNB. A little layover where Henk and I will have time to catch up and do some planning.
More to come…
