    Book Your Sable Hunts Sooner Rather Than Later

    The Sable Antelope has been a "Dream Hunt" for as long as I can remember even knowing of them.

    A Texan walks into a bar.... .

    Hello all. I have been preparing for my first ever trip to S. Africa. I'm spending a few weeks with friends and will be hunting for 20-25 days. To that end I've been looking for optics since I'm a long range hunter generally and none of what I own is appropriate for dangerous game hunting. In...
