    Would you like a Cigar?

    I am sure there is. However, I was a last minute call from the dugout to pinch hit for my wife’s mom who’s passport had expired. So I am on a tight leash just trying not to get fussed at for smoking too many cigars.

    Would you like a Cigar?

    I agree with your assessment Oscar. IMO I found it to be very bold, dark, smoky and tasteful. The Toro was a nice long burn, and I thought the first 2/3rds were more flavorful than the last 1/3, which was good, but with more spice and less sweet. Another great smoke from Oliva, and glad I got a...

    For Sale CZ 550 Safari Magnum 458 Lott Extra Fancy Wood, Jewel Bolt, More

    Not speaking for this gun specifically, but the two CZ’s I own. Yes, to utilize set trigger, you push to trigger forward, it clicks, and it then acts as a hair trigger. Hope that helps explain.

    Nothing says “great opening morning” like a MF La Opulencia. Truly a special morning in God’s creation.

    The Last Man Eater Of The Mangroves

    I was using my CZ .375 H&H with Federal 300 Gr Barnes Triple-Shock. Not a reloader mind you, so everything ordered on line, back when you could find them. One shot in the Save in Zimbabwe in 2021. 7’2”, 182lbs if I remember correctly. Thank you for the compliment.

    Victoria Falls

    Stayed at Ilala Lodge in Dec 22 and really enjoyed. Great location, food, bar and service. Just a block from great bar and restaurant called The Three Monkeys. Easy to get to Falls and Curio Market.

    Would you like a Cigar?

    I remember as a kid, my mom had a silver coffee service that set out in the formal living room(also a thing of the past). Over time, it would tarnish. So she would take me and my younger sister and show us how to rub silver polish paste on the pieces, then wipe it off. First time was fun...

    BOTSWANA: NG 13 Elephant Hunt

    Aah, the splendid winding bumpy blind turn roads of Africa hunting. All just part of the adventure, albeit, quite frustrating at times. Deep breath, relax when you find your lodging, and see what tomorrow brings. Been there, done that. You are not the first, nor the last. Looking forward to the...

    UGANDA: 2023 With JKO HUNTING SAFARIS

    Awesome safari, animals, pics, and story. Sorry about your buff, but sounds like you understood the situation and acted as planned. Hopefully he shows up. I didn’t notice any cigars on the trip. You stick to Tuskers and brown water?

    Probably another thread totally, but thank you @375 Ruger Fan for the thoughts and prayers. Nashville needs them. This hit quite close to home, and is just a cyclone of different emotions and feelings. I am 62 years old and just wept for all these victims, especially the children. Such a...

    SOUTH AFRICA: TIA

    Awesome report. Love remembering a lot of the areas you have described and visited. Your temperament is admirable, and in Africa, as well as now in the USA, is to just remain calm, and go with the flow. Blessings for a fabulous trip. You certainly seem to be enjoying yourselves!

    Been blazing away on Cigar Page, stocking up on boxes of the reliables, but also venturing somewhat into the tall grass. One such cigar is a medium bodied Hoofty. A boutique brand, but very tasty and well constructed. Very smooth, even draw, with a creamy taste, and some nice subtle spicy...

    Jerry, so excited for you, your trip, your new gun, your enthusiasm. I have read every post and would only tell you to take a deep breath and relax.

    Thank you gentlemen on the anniversary wishes, but Jami deserves all the credit for the 35 years. She put up with my antics for 9 years before I sobered up. She supports my hunting and fishing trips. Is a fabulous wife and mother to our two grown boys. And, she tolerates my over the top cigar...

    MEXICO: Sonora X 3

    Looks like a fine deer to me JB. We sometimes take what the bush provides, and I think you did just that. Biggest in the world? No. But, you made a snap shot on a good buck and I would not be apologetic in the least. Congrats my friend!

    2023 SCI Convention in Nashville

    2026 is supposed to be New Orleans, but there is an out in their contract, so would not be surprised to see in Nashville in 2026 due to the overall response and success of this venue.

    This is wisdom of the leaf for sure! I would strand myself on a deserted island with these two cigars for sure. Only in copious quantities!

    Would you like a Cigar?

    I love these for a change of pace. An infused cigar is a totally different critter. However, if you are in that “I been staring at the humidor for 10 minutes with no inspiration” mood, go for an ACID, and a Kuba-Kuba or Blondie will do wonders!

    AH Get Together In Nashville During Safari Club International (SCI) Convention 2023

    As of today, our fickle weather forecasters have temps with lows in 40’s, highs near 60. 50% chance of rain for most of the week. This beats the heck out of the weather a couple of weeks ago. Then again, just wait….. Look forward to seeing the AH community in Nashville next week!

    Ethiopian Airlines Travel

    Flew them in December 22 to Zim. Business Class, but it was the same plane they have been flying last couple of years. Did not look specifically in coach so can’t answer if anything changed there. Nothing in business though was different.

    Two wonderful cigars today while watching Big 12/SEC bball. A gifted Partagas Series E #2 Cubano. Just a dream. And a new brand to me, a Le Galera Anemoi. A medium bodied smooth and flavorful smoke. A nice 58 degree afternoon on the screened porch.
