Avenging The Kalahari Buffalo

TOBY458 · Mar 3, 2020

It's March 3rd, 2020 and I am getting restless. I have told myself that I wouldn't hunt Africa this year. One reason is, I have a huge crate headed my way with two Safaris worth of animals inside. Another reason is, I somewhat foolishly spent some of what would have been my safari money on a gun/guns.
Now there's a bright side to all of this. And that bright side is the fact that guns can be sold, and taxidermy can be put on hold, once the skins and horns arrive.
Africa is calling very loudly. Not sure I can tell her no.
For those of you that read my hunt report BUFFALO RODEO IN THE KALAHARI, you know that I have a vendetta to settle with a Cape Buffalo.
And what better place to settle that score than the Kalahari?
So with that said, I'm contemplating another Safari at Reitzdale again. Cape Buffalo, Lioness, and a mixed bag of PG.
Starting to feel the excitement. To go, or not to go in 2020 is the question. If I do choose to go, there might be some rifles for sale. Stay tuned.

I hope you aren't looking for this bunch of enablers to talk you out of this....

Any wants or needs in the rifle department?

Sure I’ll give you $500 for that new Heym 404

To go or not to go, that is the question. Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the stings and pangs of egregious disappointment, or to take arms against a sea of buffalo and by pulling the trigger, bag one...

Or something like that anyway.

"And who would fardels bear?" (A cape buffalo can be a fardel.)

Go for it buddy! I am. I’ve been going to bed with my buffalo debacle for 5 years and said to hell with it and booked September for buffalo.

Ha I figured that might be enough to force him over the edge,you know we only have so much time on this earth so best spend all you can on the dark continent.

Frederik · Mar 3, 2020

Are you asking us if you need to go or telling us you are going!
I think youy already made up your mind, enjoy it that lioness is going to get the adrenaline pumping overboard.

Newboomer · Mar 3, 2020

I knew Toby would go. Revenge is a powerful motivator.

TOBY458 · Mar 4, 2020

Well, the flight looks fairly cheap that time of year, so the decision is getting easier. I'm thinking 8 days hunting should be sufficient. Leave on August 27, arrive back in Atlanta on Labor day, Sept. 7. Only need to take 6 days off from work, seeing that labor day is already a Holiday. Starting to be hard to resist!

well I knew it! Toby’s fire sale on Guns will start up pretty soon. You already sold the Ruger I wanted so what do you have interesting. There is a fine offer out there for buffalo and elephant that I copied you on a coup,ex of days ago.

I'm hunting directly through Seun. No middle man this time. I am however looking for somebody to take the trip with me. I can arrange a great deal for anyone who wants to come along.

Ugh! Too late for me! I’m already booked 10 days in Namibia and 10 days in Limpopo! Got to start saving up for a long stay on my 75th birthday!
The “shoulder” seasons can save a lot on airfare IME!
Can’t wait to read another excellent report!
