I live in Texas, love to hunt and fish( and golf, that is a different forum), heading to South Africa in less than a month( mid May) for a plains game hunt, Kruger safari, Victoria Falls and Capetown after. Will be using guns at camp. Too much travel to take mine this time.
280 rem, 300 win mag, 270 wsm, 243,6mm, 7mm-08, 17 hmr, 22lr, 12/20 gauge.
Kudu, bushbuck, waterbuck, zebra , wildebeest, impala , warthog, red hartebeest, are all on our list.
20 year old son and I will be on our first hunt in South Africa.
Great website with tons of info and knowledge.
 
Welcome to AH Av8or! Glad to hear that you will share your first hunt in Africa with your son, some special moments await the both of you.
 
Howdy!
 
Av8or welcome aboard. I took both of my sons on a PG hunt in 2016. Both of you are in for a very memorable experience.
This site is filled with knowledgeable, experienced folks that enjoy sharing what they've learned. If you have any questions, just ask. Remember you are expected to post a hunting report complete with photos..
 
Taking a child to Africa is one of the best investments you will ever make in this life. Welcome.
 
Welcome to the great forum, good luck on your trip!
Cheers,
Cody
 
Welcome friend. Takes lots of pics and be sure to share your story with us. Most importantly make life long memories. Good luck and be safe.
 
Welcome aboard!
 
Lots of friends here from Texas, welcome to AH!
 
Welcome to AH! Hope you have a good hunt. There are some great golf courses over there if you get a free day!
 
I can’t wait to post my pictures and report either.............lol!
 
Look forward to reading it.
Welcome to AH.
 
Av8or, I haven't seen any references to shooting off sticks. If you have been spending time at the range with them great. If not you still have a couple of weeks to do so. You and your son will be expected to use them in Africa. Do you own the rifles mentioned in your introduction? What rifles do they have "in camp?"
 
We have practiced off of sticks and will do more until we leave. Yes I do own . 7x57, 7x64; 30-06 and 375 H&h , that I know of for sure. I have met my ph/ etc. I don’t think they advertise on this sight .
 
Welcome to AH! Looking forward to your hunt report when you get back.
 
Welcome to AH !

Hi EGS

I read your thread with interest. Would you mind sending me that PDF? May I put it on my website?
