I broke western and did a 21 day in Zambia in -98. I wish I had did a smaller hunt the first time but I was afraid I wouldn't get back. I took Lion, leopard, buff, and plains game. I was like a kid in the candy store. PG and buff sound great for the first time. I am writing this sitting in the...

I agree with all you said about Bullet Safaris. I was in this same camp last Sept. with Hilary as my P.H. They treated my daughter and I great. I also took two buff, both over 40 inches. Camp staff was also very good. Love hunting buff!

I hunted Tanzania last year with Nathan at Bullet Safaris. It was a great trip, after my luggage finally arrived. My daughter and I spent two days in Arusha just doing the tourist thing and never felt unsafe. Nathan runs a great camp. I added a second buff on my 10 day license for a $5,000 fee...

I have 5 pr of the Lowa Z8 & Z6, best boot ever

I am sure Nathan with Bullet Safaris can answer all your questions. I just returned from a 10 day buffalo safari with Bullet Safaris in Tanzania and stayed in camp I believe was owned by Robin Hurt and leased by Bullet. Great camp and lots of game. Was able to take two very nice buff. Give...

hello from a fellow Virginian and 69 also. I have a spring bear hunt in Alaska in May, Tanzania for buffalo in Sept. One advantage to being older, it's probably easier to afford these hunts. Hope you can still make an African safari before you give up hunting.

disregard this post, I found another thread posted earlier on AH. It will keep me confused for a long time about which is best for DG.

I shoot Barns TSX 350 gr. in my 416 Rem. Love the gun and it's very accurate. It did good job on buffalo, bear, etc.in the past. What are some opinion's on 350 vs 400 for dangerous game. I have brown bear in may and buffalo in Tanzania in Sept. coming up. Thanks

to IvW I like your reply, what you said is very true. I shot my buffalo straight on at 75 yds, he hit the ground like a wet sack. I thought man, these buffalo were supposed to be tough. Well he got up after 3 of his buddies started to gore him and ran a mile before I could get another...

The Lowa Z6S is a lightweight military boot, available with or without Gor-tex.

around $2500, did not have skull done, it exploded. Rug probably takes up more room than upright lifesize. I might add , of any game I have stalked,1/2 mile in mud above my ankles, being very nervous, then knowing I had a golf ball size target with no room for error at 125 yards, it certainly...

One of the main reasons for Croc rugs vs body mounts is cost. Price quote for my 12+ croc to mount upright like previous pictures was in range of 7-8 thousand, I went with the rug.

I have tried all brands: Courtneys, Russell, Danner, Merrell, Vasque, etc. On my last trip to Cameroon, my ph had a pair of Lowa. He swore by them. I bought the Z6s in desert color and non gortex. They are the most comfortable boot I have ever wore. I have since bought same boot in gortex. I...

You must have missed it, I submitted a report back in Feb. Hope you can search back and find it. I got a beautiful LDE and Roan.

I think the rut is a little latter, the dark color is related to the "wintertime" months of Jan. and Feb.

member of, NRA Patron. Areas hunted: Alaska 6, Cameroon 2, Australia 3,Mozambique 2

I have been back about a week, just collecting my thought s and decided to try and write a report. Two years ago I started a thread about a show special LDE safari in Cameroon. I went on that hunt last year. It turned out to be a very tough hunt. Not only, was the temperature very hot...

Been using tuffpak for 19 yrs.

Good looking fellow with that Leopard, Wayne! I can honestly say Wayne will do all he can to see you get your cat. He also has a great crew. Good luck selling this hunt.

I talked to you at DSC, along with several other outfitters in Namibia. I liked what you had to say. I would like to hunt in the park but don't know if it's worth an extra $10,000. I have hunted Buff in the floodplain and didn't care for it. I certainly will keep in touch. thanks for responding

yes, I was very impressed with him.

First two weeks in Feb for LDE in Cameroon with Club Faune, fishing for Kings in June in Alaska, Brown Bear May of 2018 on Alaska Pennisular with R&R. Looking for Buffalo in Caprivi for 2019. any suggestion's? Talked to several at DSC last week but haven't decided on one yet.

I went to the factory in Bulawayo last year, they wouldn't sell less than retail to me. I don't think it's worth going out of your way.

Way to go Wayne. Much better to get him on day 13 than on day 1 !!

I started this thread last year. When I went to Dallas I got a contract for less than $25,000. It included 12 dayhunt, trophy fee for LDE, license and tags, domestic air to Ngaundere, dip pack ship. The agent is one I have used before and I guess is as reputable as any. They say you get what...

reply to hastreng not sure of block, only know Kourouk. Hunt starts Jan.30. Are you going to Dallas in Jan?

please change username to laststand, thanks

used EA recently, they partner with United. Used frequent flyer miles, no problem. They also use the 787 Dreamliner

was wondering if you found a hunter for this lion.it was very tempting, if only for next year. thanks for any follow up.

I believe you're certainly better off not taking a Leopard unless it's one to quit on. What I'm saying is to be careful and not shoot one you will not be satisfied with. With the trophy fee and taxidermy costs being the same for all size Leopards, don't do like me and shoot a small male on the...

If you're just looking, go to SCI. If you're serious about buying, go to Dallas. This year was my first to Dallas and I loved it. My wife likes Vegas better.

I have been on 3 Leopard hunts, the last one was pre-baited. If you figure 2 men, 1 vehicle, it takes almost all day to check and hang new baits. Price sounds very reasonable especially if bait is included. Leopard hunting is hit or miss, and you need all the help [luck] you can get. Prebaiting...

thanks for the effort I am flying United [frequent flyer miles] to Sydney, only option I had. From Sydney to Auckland and return I think is Air NZ. If I could have flown to Auckland first it would have been fine, because like you said NZ is very hunter friendly. I hunted in Darwin a few years...

I'm going to Darwin in August this year. Will fly into Sydney, then fly to Auckland and tour New Zealand four days. Return to Sydney, then on to Darwin. I would like to leave my rifle in Sydney while I am in New Zealand. I use a tuffpak gun case, so it is to large for airport lockers. I have...

sure did, I went with Safaris Chelet. I got hunt booked through Adventure Unlimited. My dates are the first two weeks of Feb. 2016. thanks

Adventure Unlimited has LDE and Bongo hunts for $30,300 advertised in latest issue of Safari Times. This probably doesn't include trophy fees. LDE doesn't require charter. thanks Carey

heading to Dallas in two weeks hoping to find reasonable priced Lord Derby hunt. Any suggestions on outfitter and best time of year for the hunt? I have 416rem. and 300win.mag. Which would be best? thanks, Laststand
