    A Covid read for our Canadian friends

    My God, the maniacal right wing drivel on this platform has finally exceeded the breaking point. I have never seen so many self-righteous, criminally ignorant minds assembled in one place at one time. For you Americans who don't like coming To Canada, please don't come. We do not want you here...

    Short safaris question, and is this pricelist a good sign (and decent prices) or should I stay away?

    Price per inch turns me right off. Most outfitters don't do it, and it doesn't sound like fair chase if they can guarantee an animal of a certain size. It seems to me that a kudu/sable plus zebra plus a friend's animal plus animals for wives might need five days. Make a proposal to some of the...

    Southern Greater Kudu Hunt With MATTANJA HUNTING SAFARIS

    Guys, |I would like to jump at this, but with the uncertainty of air travel, I am going to have read someone else's review. I have taken a bath due to SAA's bankruptcy, and forced Covid cancellations, so I will not risk it until covid has disappeared from the vernacular. If the price is good for...

    Who has had their trophies tanned in Africa then shipped home?

    Your situation in the US is probably different, but I have been burned in Canada twice. In each case, the taxidermist claimed that they didn't trust the tanning and charged me a premium to "restore" them. It ended up being much more expensive than simple dIp and pack. There was absolutely...

    South Africa/Namibia

    There is good advice here. I have done multiple country hunts a few times, and the double fees are problematic, and guessing what will greet you at the airport can be very annoying as airport/airline staff invent rules. In no way would I put down South Africa, as I am already planning a return...

    Animal Justice

    Yes, these posts are a few years old, but one should know they won. Of course, Covid accounts for 2020, but the shows disappeared before that. There were likely other factors, but I wouldn't hold my breath that the Africa shows will reappear on a widespread basis.

    SOUTH AFRICA: RSA Safari Report

    Nice report, and congratulations. I really hope your PH will be OK. You seem to have dealt with the incompetence, disinterest, and disorganisation of the RSA police really well. I have missed so many flights and hunting days, that it is difficult to believe. A first time hunter has to know that...

    SOUTH AFRICA: First African Safari

    Congratulations. You seem to have dealt with the disorganisation, disinterest, and incompetence of the RSA police with relative calm. Once you try certain other African countries, you can add corruption to the mix. One has to know that it is (unfortunately) part of the process.

    375 H&H Question

    You'll be fine wit your Noslers. I have shot every antelope in the southern African countries from eland to steenbok and the partitions and accubonds worked beautifully. In addition, those 'old school' projectiles which are bonded, have taken forty years worth of mule deer, white tails, moose...

    Dear Abby, a good friend is offering my blinds to friends, should I shoot him?

    I have lived through a variation of this, Pheroze, and I think you need to make it perfectly clear that he is out of line using your blinds, even though it is a shared property. You probably put a lot of time in to selecting the right spot and to building them just as you like them. In my case...

    Best upland bird dog?

    Even though a recent poster belongs to my wildlife federation, I cannot agree with his comments about labs. My lab points, works birds back to me, astonishing me at every turn. On huns, sharpies, ruffies, and especially pheasants, he puts every other breed I have hunted with to shame. I...

    Best upland bird dog?

    I should have looked at your location. The lab is the dog for you. The only other dog that can take cold water, and very cold conditions as well is the chessie. Both were bred to be cold weather dogs.

    Best upland bird dog?

    Stick with the lab. Before I got into hunting dogs, I used to talk to all the hunters I ran into in SK, MT, and ND. As I had never had any kind of dog due to an animal-hating father, I had no preconceived notion. Of course, these hunters had a great variety of dogs among them, but when I asked...
