Years ago as a teenager I watched a series produced by the BBC called "Africa's Big Game". They interviewed a couple of professional hunters, an American hunting client, the then current and previous directors of the Kenya Wildlife Service and showed a lot of historical safari footage. Been...

We're heading across in 17 more sleeps - but who's counting? The plan us for elephant, brown hyena and spotted hyena and a few other species should we have the opportunity. Should be a great hunt nd a good break from the daiy grind. Was out smashing a few pigs last weekend and blowing up...

I enjoy hunting and I don't sit around all day trying to justify why I hunt to anyone. Everyone I know understands that I hunt and accepts it at some level with a few facts over a beer. This year I'm going elephant hunting. I'm doing this hunt because I want to, because of the adventure and...

Evening guys. Just got back from a few days hunting fallow deer in the rut. We've had some unseasonably hot weather this month so the deer have backed off and aren't very vocal at all. Regardless, I had a great hunt and brought home a wonderful, stag. Full story and lots of photos here...

Hello all. I would like some advice, particularly from some resident South African professional hunters. In July 2009 I went on a 6 week hunt with an outfitter in South Africa. As you can imagine it was a fair outlay for me and a great safari for the operator. I had hunted with the company...

Mike Solomon, “Solo” to his mates is a maintenance electrician who likes the Aussie bush. Through a series of coincidences, I met Solo over the telephone and was invited to his 350 acre unfenced property for a goat hunt. No monster trophies, but the opportunity for a long walk, a tough hunt...

Hello all, My best buddy and the littlest hunter I know just handled her first rifle today! Klancy has hunted with me at home for pigs and deer and in 2009 she came to Africa where we hunted for 6 weeks. She adores animals and knows her big 5, hippos, giraffe and zebra. Most of the...

My next hunt in Africa will be in C.A.R. I've been putting some thought into which rifle to take as I have no desire to add to my standard two gun safari battery. I generally carry my .300 Weatherby Mag loaded with 180gr Woodleigh PP @ 2950fps and my .450 Ackley Mag with 500gr Woodleigh...

It does appear that a lot of those posting here do a fair bit of hunting - probably more than I do. I have read the odd post about trophy room design and decor, but I have that bit covered. At the moment the bulk of my trophies are either "work in progress" in the garage or tanned and dried...
