What if the clouds cover up the moon during any phase? :A Me You:

They correspond to the form’s number in the catelog-avaialble on internet or a paper version. With that number you can determine direction of turn and sizes available. Most taxidermists will slightly alter a form in some way or another

Still must wear a ghillie suit tho ;)

Dave Ferguson taxidermy supply has at Least one very Similar to the one you seek as well

Take a look at research mannikins, they have several pedestal sneaks that are similar to your picture. . . As for sizing and modifications if needed/wanted, that is up to the taxidermist you select.

Just watched a YouTube video called “double trouble/dad and daughter safari with John x.” It is apparently recorded near Easter, which will give you some visual reference about spring hunting. I just booked my next trip for July 2025 so you know which direction I lean towards. Brickburn has not...

Barnes .375 tsx bullets were on sale at midwayusa and might still be. Good practice fodder but I loved them for plains game as well. Enjoy the .375!

I cannot attend but congratulations on having a booth-that is very cool news!

Back in 2018 I flew home from RSA through New York and while waiting for guns to clear we met a man and his son also from DC. They had enjoyed a successful hunt that included sable and buffalo. They were good company. I hope you can likewise make a successful hunting adventure far from home...

Some extra character there-I love it

Spot and stalk kudu for me. But I also love hunting something I’ve never put in the scope before. I just booked my first Buffalo hunt, excited to make that acquaintance

Welcome to the site-a great place to make dreams come true!

Thanks R&M, Happy Holidays!

I’ve only gone the last Week of July but have enjoyed the weather both trips. Cooler there so almost no insects or snakes. I would wear a jacket and warm hat early but after breakfast was in a t shirt or hoodie the rest of the day. There have been occasional rains that cool things but they...

Built in Airbags

Take it off when the stalk begins, put it back on for the slog back to the vehicle. I don’t even take one anymore

Holy smokes! That is a big kitty-I do love chasing with hounds, nothing quite compares to the soul of a hound dog.

Some short but very exciting events during that hunt! Congratulations on a perfect bull. We’re you able to get your pigs or anything else if interest?

Excited for the rest of the adventure! Glad you made it it safe and hope you had the time of your lives!

I agree 100% with that shooting instructor. I used the 165’s on my last trip and they worked great, it’s worth reiterating that bullet placement is king! The original trophy bonded bear claws were great for kudu down for me, a bit much for the steenbok :ROFLMAO: 180 grain maybe preferable if...

Have had great experiences with Gracy travel and their man on the ground Bruce once you touch down in jburg. Having a helper who knows the system is worth its weight In gold.

I wear A & F cologne because my wife buys it for me but would otherwise not have a reason to go to that store. You were spot on about not knowing any history of that chain, had never even heard of Oshmans.

Welcome to the site!

I am reminded of the Idaho fish and game officer that lost his job for shooting a bunch of baboons and posing them for a “family”picture. I have always liked the tradition of placing a bit of foliage in the mouth of the game and the hat of the hunter. It requires the hunter to think about...

You had to see it-while I am up there with the ladder I dust him and also change the battery in the smoke detector. Where do I get one of those shrunken heads to put on top of my tree?!

You have done the two things you can do-specific negative Feedback and report him to GB.

Pretty head on that lab!

I hate it but my wife and kids think putting a Santa hat on a cougar is the best thing that ever happened to a cat dead or alive. I’ve always hated when hunters sit or stand on dead animals. But I’ll allow as to each their own, we don’t all perceive things the same way

Had not heard of you before now so glad you joined and look forward to learning more. Will be watching for pictures and hunting stories. Welcome!

Do you drink miller when watching a game in Coors field?!

I recall at Some of the major expos there were some creative Options for tusk display. Don’t know if it’s possible for you to visit a show of this caliber from dc area but it might open some doors for you. As you are new here, it would be nice of you to make an introduction for yourself, maybe...

I agree with Tom! Paid vacation?;)

Just fyi, midwayusa has Barnes tsx 235 gr on sale right now. I push them through a 375 wby and they are wonderful bullets. If nothing else they would Be good practice fodder at the range

Maybe when selecting your hunt and your ph ask if they have a suppressed camp rifle avaialble. Most have one and it will be tried and true on eland. Suppressors are a game changer for kids and other “flinchers.” They are common in Namibia and RSA compared to the USA where they are just still...

That’s cool-you should take it to Africa and give it a thorough test!

I think you should join me for that buffalo hunt in July 2025. You know the place and I would be happy to share the camp with you:)

Cool pictures and a wonderful bull. Eager for more from your hunt!

Have had several very good interactions with lauriston taxidermy in the past. Eager to see how yours turn out

What a fun experience in a very cool part of the world. I’m glad you could go and take advantage of that permit! Thanks for your report so far-looking forward to the rest of the day’s adventures

The offer I have been waiting for-$1000 to hold the dates?

Beautiful country up there-good turkey hunting as well. Planning your trip is a part of the fun, what is in your wish list to hunt?

So grateful to have a hunt report to read in November. Don’t skip the details and good luck with the Remainder of your trip!

Judge, my chessie earning his living

Well done sir! I love the space you have for trophy display. Congratulations and enjoy your holiday! Where are the sables going to end up?

Bushbuck was Possibly the hardest trophy I hunted and took and certainly the luckiest shot and my eland one of my absolute favorites to hunt, eat and have in my house. -I guess javelina are not among the 29 but are a fine and affordable adventure. I’ve done it solo in Arizona but achievable...

Have done a lot of my own but often I take animals with a bow when it is hot and I don’t have a cool room, so I will have them professionally done. But late season animals I will still do my own

Welcome to the site and thanks for posting. Limcroma is a solid outfit, you will have. A great adventure. Take some extra trophy money, there will be opportunities to use it! What is on your dream list?

Thank you for an honest report about your experiences. Something to learn and remember for everyone. I’m sorry your didn’t get your trophies and especially all the data you lost from your phone-ouch! but I’m glad you got to go and see some cool animals and be part of the country. Next time...

Check with Game4Africa in the east cape of South Africa which is a sponsor on here. My first aniaml I took with them was a nyala and we saw many. They have hosted archery hunters before as I have seen the pix. It would be worth the time to touch base with them
