I hadn’t even touched down in East London in May 2014 and I was already plotting how I might be able to hunt in Africa again. That 2014 hunt with Patrick Fletcher of Hotfire Safaris was a success and did not dissuade me from wanting to return again. Not only did I enjoy some fantastic hunting...

OK. Trip to RSA coming up in April. Common advice is to make sure your ammo, even handloads, are packed in original type packaging of the same caliber as the ammo. True or False? I did this last time, packed in my small Pelican (I recommend the Pelican as I was made to ship it separately home...

Alberta Tactical Rifle manufactures in Calgary a semi-automatic rifle that uses a lot of common AR15 furniture and accessories. However, unlike an AR15, the ATR rifle has not been categorized as restricted and is therefore a legal rifle to hunt with. Chambered in .223Rem, this could be your...

I will be on the big island in February of 2018. Any experiences with outfitters? I am interested in a black sheep or a spanish goat. There is Nahele Outfitters, The Parker Ranch, and Hawaii Safaris (Patrick Fisher). Any other suggestions? Thanks.

https://petitions.parl.gc.ca/en/Petition/Details?Petition=e-191 Many inaccuracies in the very brief description. It is borderline criminal that a Member of Parliament (MP) would sponsor this drivel without fact checking. I believe the initiator is a member or author of B.A.T.H. (Ban African...

Safari means a journey or expedition in Swahili. Although it is most often and traditionally associated with hunting in East Africa, it is not necessarily so. I love my journeys and expeditions "safaris" with friends and family here in Alberta. Hunting is under attack, and not just in Africa...

The antis are at it again. What a bunch of mis-information, apparently 91% of the Canadian public opposes sport hunting. https://www.change.org/p/travelodge-hotel-saskatoon-cancel-african-trophy-hunting-expo-january-23rd-24th#petition-letter...

Ladies and gentlemen, I received my African trophies in mid April of this year. All the skulls were prepped for skull mounts and I will be using Skull Hookers to attach them to the wall. One thing that surprised me were the three felt-backed rugs (zebra, blesbok, impala). When I removed them...

Florida Hog Hunt My family and I were in Florida for spring break. With my wife’s blessing, I was able to slip away for an evening of hog hunting with Westshore Outfitters. I can’t hunt at night, hunt with an AR15, hunt with a night scope, or generally speaking hunt hogs in Alberta. When...

The heads are nearly ready to be shipped. I did not have them placed on plaques by Taxidermy Africa because of their exhorbitant pricing this year. However, it is hard to find good looking and reasonably priced plaques in this country, not to mention whether they are sized properly for the...

South African Adventure May 11 – 30, 2014 On the afternoon of May 11, my wife and I left Calgary, flying with KLM through Amsterdam to Johannesburg. We arrived in Johannesburg late in the evening of May 12, too late to fly on to East London. The Air 2000/Hunter Support personnel are worth...

I just joined this forum yesterday. I'm married, with two teenage daughters who hunt with me. My wife and I went on our first Safari to the Eastern Cape of South Africa in May 2014. We had a great time at Hotfire Hunting & Fishing Safaris. We hope to go back again.
