Sorry there are not A frames available in France. Can you get Loaded TSX and bonded DGX and go shoot them both for accuracy and practice?

Found it! Some impressive amberjack but the needlefish is my favorite

Pix of fish? Or is there a separate report for that which I missed? Love the cull concept and glad you added a couple trophies. I have tsessebe and nyala on my wish list for later this summer and you threw some fuel onto that fire for sure! Thanks for posting. Can’t believe you didn’t shoot...

I would check with several other options (outfitters) and compare the overall costs. I haven’t dealt with doves only hunting, usually dove/duck combo and yours is just a bit troubling. I’m glad you figured out the license issue

In all fairness there are situations where I wish for a more open choke. I use 8’s but can see using 9’s if you can get them

I love 5 stand and it is a riot when you take new or young shooters. I do not change my chokes-mod and full, same as when I hunt. There are guys who swap them out at every new stand but I feel like they are-making it too hard-overthinking the fun. What gun were you shooting? That would Make...

I apologize for the snarkiness of my last post. After reading all the responses my last neeve was acting up. In MY experience and in this one caliber here are The pros and cons I have learned- 1. Recoil can be heavy. I am not recoil sensitive and don’t have a brake device on my rifles...

Welcome to the site. I lived in nc for some years and could not sleep last night after Duke lost. I’ve been to sa a couple times and will return this summer. Also taking my 7mm-08 and for more or less the same animals that you have in your list. Practice from sticks and be prepared to...

The topic of the OP is specifically the 28 nosler. I could have written about all the 7’s I own and have used but the topic was pretty straight forward. The op also will use said caliber for long shots in agriculture closer to home. There are pros and cons to every caliber.

Love my 28 nosler and hand loaded 175 ablr bullets. Would have no second thoughts about taking it to Africa. Fast and very accurate.

Franchi makes the Affinity 3 compact and Winchester makes the sx 4 compact. We’ve been looking at the 20 ga versions and 2 3/4 and 3 inch models. These are semi auto for waterfowl but two of my daughters have Been trying them out and love them. The biggest thing I have noticed as they switch...

Please forgive me! BUT, this one is the one I use most. Perfect for pruning my fruit trees, prepping trees for deer stands, cutting firewood or this last season, our family Christmas tree. It is lightweight, fits easily in a daypack and requires oil but no pain in the can fuels. I use it...

I wire about half the cost then carry the rest. But I take my card just in case we run across an unplanned opportunity that needs to be taken. As mentioned, it depends heavily on the agreed amount of the safari to begin with

I was guessing onions-but I’ll give you high points for creativity

Would love to take it to Maine-but to kill a boss gobbler with it!

last year was unbelievable for chukars and Huns. I wouldn’t go without the dogs! You all have some beautiful hunting partners, I hope they shoot as good as they look

Browning 16 gauge and a Franchi 20 gauge. I recently purchased a Franchi in 16 gauge and had a good day for ducks with it, but no pix of upland hunting just yet. My kids are mostly all hunting now, hence the need for another O/U in the safe and in the outdoors.

Welcome to the site-a great place to be a “lurker”

Obviously the answers depend on what part of the world you live in. -and none of us can pick just one gun! I’m a big fan of the .300 wm and 180 gr bullets although I have several favorites. Since many places are banning lead bullet use, I believe the ttsx and other mono’s will continue to...

The Dangerous Game by Walter Prothero is newer and good reading. Finding a trade copy might be tough

Nuts. . . Maybe you could give us just a bit more information about yourself

Let’s just say for conversation sake that I want the rifle, base and rings and no use for the scope. (Even tho it is cool and possibly a Collectors piece)-Would you consider such an idea? What price would you be asking for just the rifle?

Had a good buying experience with JohnD29. I had to have my wife handle the Venmo part and I was at work for a couple days. He was patient and didn’t call me a scammer or a thief or a murderer. Just patiently gave Me time to make arrangements. Job well done and a happy customer

That sends my ocd off the chart!:E Horrified:

Welcome from a neighbor to the east. Glad you found us and look forward to seeing more of your work in the future

Doesn’t influence what caliber I buy as much as how much/how often I go shooting. I do load my own which also influences these and other life altering decisions

Welcome Mr. Fisher, glad you found us!

Saw this while watching March Madness. Made my heart sad-always lined his life story. I hope he and his family can find peace and happiness moving forward-

A very cool offer-I wish I was in the market but confident these are beyond my reach. Thanks for posting them, I hope the OP can make a square deal with the seller

Gambels, Scaled quail, two kinds of doves and band tailed pigeons. Mearns quail are my favorite gamebird! Turkeys and grouse in the high mountains. You haven’t scratched the surface and trust me on this-Arizona is world class for all those species. Glad you found this site, a great place to...

Love that old lion with a permanent underbite snarl and what appears to be a tumor/scar tissue on his spine. Job well done. Impressive work on the elephants as well-not only the shooters but the camera man to be commended!

Love the career choices-Welcome to the forum!

A couple days of blizzards with wind and snow and today it is cold. The skiers are celebrating and we all needed the water. In like a lion-out like a lamb. . . Hope the hurricanes didn’t hurt any of you too terribly!

In the US, you typically fly into Atlanta, then on to Johannesburg. Typically you will have to spend the night and the next morning fly into East London. I fly delta from salt lake to Atlanta, delta from Atlanta to Joburg and airlink from joburg to final destination. There are other routes...

A couple others have mentioned chemicals to remove the mold release agent-I recommend odorless mineral spirits-but the concept is the same I am also a lover of stickers. . .

Now this thread has officially gone sideways. . .

Check out the duck hunting while you are there for me. . . Welcome to the site, glad it’s having a positive effect on you already!

Et tu, Wheels? I guess it is March!

Thanks for sharing-it’s good to have a hunt report to read from Africa again

Glad you found us! Strong work taking your wife and glad you both had a quality adventure. Best wishes moving forward towards your next safari!

I love the freaks! No way I would have passed a buck like that up. You can always hunt a typical buck another trip, but the freaks only come along “once in a lifetime”

Sent you a dm-would like to purchase from you-

One of my next bucket list options. Congrats on an excellent ram and a very cool adventure. Thanks to your helpers as well!

Hantavirus-I didn’t see that coming! Alzheimer’s and heart disease, just a crazy tragedy!

Have you checked with the getducks.com website? They also have multiple YouTube videos and podcasts specific to Azerbaijan. My wife has already told me that I cannot go there-I hope you have better luck! Crested pochards, common pochards, Eurasian wigeons and more!

Thank you for posting!

Both were skilled hunters and thankfully filled out lives with their writings.

My most recent one-one of my favorite things to hunt. The east cape and game4africa have been good to me. We were hunting a bigger one that gave us the slip and I took this one instead-I like to pull the trigger! I was surprised how good waterbuck meat tasted

Maybe it’s a woke thing-they woke up one day and figured out how to say the f word . . .

Do you only review products you like and endorse or are you going to be brave and point out the products that aren’t worth owning as well? It’s a slippery slope
