i believe he was charged in namibia for illegal activity.

i used one as well in both namibia and r.s.a. the ones that i used, didnt seem to make the rifle that quiet. why cant we use them on this side of the pond?

just a reminder that the african hunting show is coming to toronto on january 20-21 and calgary jan. 27-28.

i attended the african only show in toronto and booked my trip after the show. the reason for the number of outfitters is to keep it small and personal. you can talk to the different outfitters and have quality time with them. their are more than enough outfitters to make your choice. and one...

the price of dip and pack, shipping ,taxi work is greater than the price of your plains game safari. if you dont take anything home, you can go twice.

i travelled from toronto to frankfurt and then direct to windhoek. this avoids going through jo-burg, a much better way. i also used lori at travel express and everything was handled very well. my seats were pre-booked, and had lots of leg room. i had a row of 5 all to myself on the return...

whay are we fishing for and where?

i also believe that he was a victim of the situation. when hunters book a hunt in africa, they would certainly think that they were not going down to participate in an illegal hunt.

i have contacted the fish and game club that he is an executive member of. they responded that it was non of their business if he was involved in an illegal hunt. i replyed that i believe it should be their business if an executive member was involved in an illegal hunt as it reflects poorly on...

i am inquiring as to whether he is indeed the secretary. i know some locals.

i rented rifles on my last hunt for 30 a day and $4 a round. i travelled for 2 weeks first and this was a great option.

i dont know if mountain zebra are found in this region.

the prices are VERY high.in some cases, 3x the normal rate. you see these donated hunts all the time like this. they offer i animal for 7 days. so after the first morning, you are done hunting and then you start shooting off the trophy list. so in reality, there is no deal.

i spent some time in the caprivi on my last trip. i was not hunting there, but went to see some of the species that could only be found in this region. sable roan tseesebe lechwe were some that were seen and would make a great addition to a trophy room.

listen to lori, she took care of all my travel needs including insurance.

i always buy travel insurance. it cost me a little over 200 last trip. a very small price to pay for piece of mind. you would be crazy not to.

great deal. is this the same hunt fron a few weeks ago?

there are some great last minute hunts offered on this forum regularly. to avoid the paperwork hassle, rent a gun, book your flights and ENJOY.

i understand that it is a real nice hunt when done properly. it turned into a real sh?t show before and that is why it was cancelled. hopefully the outfitters will stay on the straight and narrow this time around if reinstated.

i spent 2 weeks on a self drive myself. where did you drive? sounds like you also had a great hunt. that kudu is a monster. awaiting the pics.

countless bad stories of moose hunts gone bad with expandables. i watched my friend shoot a moose with an expandable, the arrow almost stopped when it hit the moose when the blades opened and then it penetrated 5 inches. it was an unbelievable sight, it was like slow motion. we couldnt believe...

i would have a pretty tough time investing in anything in zim.

i used lori for my namibiam adventure and was very satisfied.

yas indeed, i forgot to check the archery only box on our moose application this year and our group received a rifle tag. my friends wife was able to talk to the women in charge, and she changed it to an archery tag. this saved me from a sure linching.

if the outfitter owns the land, you will get a better rate then an outfitter who may have to lease land.

the malea are black with white stripes and the females are white with black stripes. haha

no problem shooting a hartmans zebra for me. very challenging hunt. dik dik, klipspringer, steenbok, gemsbok. have fun

hi nim. i am from thunder bay. just returned from 25 days in namibia. welcome aboard.

my p.h. had a piece made for the butts of the rifle on the bed of the truck and another was mounted behind the cab to hold the barrels. the guns were transported verticle and were held in place very securely. this was a great idea.

as far as the taxi work goes, the zebra rug and everything else is getting euroed in namibia. thats 15 different species now, and the wall is getting full. i was only going to get the rug done and picture of everything else, but decided on euros for the rest as i would kick myself for leaving...

welcome mitch, you will learn lots from this forum. i live in ontario and might venture to sask. this fall for whiteys.

maybe next time, i will have a little more time for a visit. i was on a fixed schedule this time. that sun is pretty intense for a fair skinned canadian.

pictures- die keiler namibia finally got some help with the pics. sorry for the wait.

i have recently returned from a 25 day holiday in namibia. the flights were booked by lori of Travel Express. from seating to confirmations and flight updates, everything was handled greatly and would highly recommend using travel express. the first 14 days included a self drive around namibia...

leaving in 3 hours. i will post trip details upon return. 25 days in namibia.

i am leaving on friday, and will try my luck in the caprivi. i will let you know what happens.

leaving in 7 days myself. 2 week self drive and 10 day hunt.

take care, have a good hunt and a cold castle.

it depends on where you live. cold in canada is different than cold in africa. they make so many great products now. polar fleece is very good and layering is the way to go.

i just spoke with my outfitter. weather is cool and the vegetation is very thick this year because of the rains. should make for a very challenging hunt. good luck.

i am leaving in 2 weeks.most airlines now make you pay for second bags, AND for firearms. the cost of getting my firearm to namibia from northern canada is $300. the paperwork involved is a pain in the butt. i will be travelling for 2 weeks besides my hunt and then spending time in amsterdam...
