I got back a few days ago from 6 days of hunting and a couple days of fishing in Botswana with @NKWE SAFARIS. It. Was. Great! Quick back story on the trip. We told our kids when they turned 13, they could take a trip with one parent. The problem was we didn't really limit the 'where', so...

It looks like I have to get a court order or travel with my 13 year old? https://za.usembassy.gov/m_16042015/ Has anyone traveled to SA with their minor children and not the other parent? Seems crazy to have to get a court order?! The rest is no problem, but I’m not sure where to start for a...

So I just turned 40 and my wife told me to book a trip to Alaska for Halibut / Salmon / whatever. I figure people here might have some good recommendations, so let em fly! Thanks in advance!

Got my taxidermy back from Africa today! I happened to be in DFW so I swung by the clearing house and picked it up (I used DSV and it was painless and affordable). Let me know if you want any other angles, etc. this is the first taxidermy I’ve ever had done so I’m pleased. It was packed...

Have a buddy that is trying to sell the gun in the pics below. Winchester Model 70 30-06, lookup of serial says it was made in 1952. To be honest, I don’t know enough about old guns. What’s it worth? He wants $700 and my gut says I’d be stealing it to buy it for that. Any feedback? Scope...

Found this book at Barnes and Noble. People around me couldn’t figure out why I was laughing so hard! Might make a great gift for a hard to buy for hunter!

I finally have a bit of time to sit down and do a quick report on my hunt. This will be a little shorter, but it was absolutely tons of fun! We were hunting in the LaPampa province of Argentina with TGB Outfitters. It was an auction hunt. Travel: I booked with LATAM airlines about 8 months...

So, I'm about 30 days out (35 I guess) from heading down to Argentina to do a big game hunt I purchased at an Auction last March. I plan to chase some red stag, maybe a black buck and my Dad is going with me as well (he can't decide on Buff or Stag since it's the Roar). We plan to spend at...

Way to go Philip!

So, I recently got back from my first Africa trip. It. Was. Amazing. Now my 10 year old wants to go and I want to get my Dad to go. So the plan I’m working on now is to try to get my Dad, myself and my 10 year old over to Africa in 2020. I told my 10 year old if he saves $1500 by the time...

And people wonder why the UN, WHO, and other organizations are a joke... I can’t roll my eyes hard enough. Mugabe named as goodwill ambassador by WHO New WHO head Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus praised Zimbabwe for its commitment to public health. But critics say that during Mr Mugabe's...

I'm 3 days into my trip and having a grand ole time. I'll write up a better report when I get back but wanted to share some pics. Got a nice wide Blesbok the second morning and got nice Gemsbok this afternoon. The first day I took a shot at a zebra but only managed to kill the stick in front...

I'm sitting here going through my lists and thinking I must love to make things hard. In June I broke my ankle/leg and then we just sold our house, all just before my trip to Africa! Good news is my leg is 85-90%, I'm a little slow and can't go as far as normal, but I'm very mobile and...

Dislocated my ankle be broke my fibula while helping my grandmother by cutting a tree down. I flew home from NY to TX today with it set, and I'll go in for surgery in a couple days. 100 Days should be enough time to get up and going, but sheesh my luck sucks! Let the countdown begin! And...

When is Enough Finally Enough? BY RICHARD CHEATHAM, DSC FOUNDATION PRESIDENT This article is featured in the Spring 2017 issue of Game Trails, our quarterly publication for DSC members. I don’t want to hear about “fake news” like it is some recent phenomenon. Hunters know otherwise. I...

Ha! That would be a nice hunt!

I've been debating what I want to go hunt and spending time looking at forums, articles and such. The info seems to be out there, but spread out and I was hoping to condense it down into a single thread here. This thought process came around when I mentioned what I was looking to hunt and...

I took my kids up to the mountains if New Mexico to go turkey hunting for the first time. It's my 2 oldest kids, ages 7 and 9. I figure I'll start working on my story telling for when I goto Africa later this year! Day 1: Go out in the morning with my 7 year old and figure we won't see much...

Next March I'm headed to Argentina with TGB outfitters. Its been recommended that I just rent a gun and not try to bring one into the country. Just wondering if anyone has any experience taking a gun or not, if it's hard to do it, risk of losing it, etc. Thanks!

So, I get filming any DG hunt for sure and wouldn't think twice about getting one filmed by a pro, but I'm wondering if it's worth getting a video made of PG hunts? I have a 10 day hunt coming up in September and I'm just trying to figure out where to put my money, more shooting, taxidermy...

So, I've hunted elk and deer primarily and was looking for feedback on factory ammo for the .300 win mag. for African plains game. I've shot hornady Superformance, Barnes TTSX, and a couple others. Most shoot well out of my Browning x-bolt, but I was leaning towards the Hornady Precision 200...

So I've always thought one day I would goto Africa and my time table got pushed up by about 10 years when I won a raffle @ a DCS banquet. I'm prepping for a trip with Limcroma this Sept and I can't wait! My wife says I'm just obsessing about everything Africa right now and she's probably...
