    FN Post War Custom ‘98 .404 Jeffery

    Just sent DB404 a message. What a lovely rifle. Happy to purchase at listed price. Will give it the care (and use in Africa) it deserves. And prayers for good health to DB404.

    Which species draws you back to Africa?

    Tracking hunts are awesome in their own way, but I love glassing and spot and stalk. So this puts kudu at the top of my list. 11 great bulls so far taken in a variety of areas and habitats, from the deserts to the mountains, and I could do it all day every day without complaint. Tough hiking...

    Wyoming Elk Clothing Suggestions

    I really like Badlands tops, they just fit me really well, everything from base layer on up. Sitka is my number two for tops. Kuiu just doesn't fit me right. Pants-wise, I like the Fjallraven Vidda Pro.

    Where best to hunt in October/November time frame?

    Buff and plains game. I'm a kudu addict, so that's always in the mix.

    Eland hunting in a wilderness area for first safari

    +1 on this comment. I love Kaokoland, but you should go there with the mindset to take what Africa gives you. It is rough country and game density not high.

    Similar alpha-gal story with my wife. About 10 years ago she woke up at midnight feeling itchy, diarrhea and face and tongue started to swell. Knew it was some kind of reaction, so she downed a bunch of Benedryl and made it through the night. Went to the allergist who identified it as...

    Where best to hunt in October/November time frame?

    Have hunted Namibia (Kalihari, Kaokoland and Caprivi) and Eastern Cape in May-August time frame. But considering an Oct/Nov hunt at some point. Wondering where to go considering weather factors (rain and heat) and game quality at that time of year. Anyone have any good experiences or...

    Bwabwata West Namibia - KOU KUAS ADVENTURES Hunting Safaris End Of Quota Sale

    Bumping this thread, as I just returned from a Cape Buffalo hunt with Emile Kirchner and Kou Kuas Adventures in his Bwabwata West concession. This was my second safari with Emile. I am a long-time lurker on AH.com, but have not posted much. Mostly because I didn’t feel like I had much to...

    Yellow fever vaccination for Namibia?

    Just a few hours. You have to make sure the Walgreens you make an appt with does the PCR testing. Some do, some don't.

    Yellow fever vaccination for Namibia?

    Easy peasy. Yep, had to get a negative test prior and be sure to take a copy of the results. Got mine at a Walgreens drive-thru. The PH arranged for a nurse to come to the lodge to do a test the day prior to departure for the flight back. I never had to show proof of vaccination that I can...

    Yellow fever vaccination for Namibia?

    Just got back. Didn't get one before I went and wasn't asked about it. I think your understanding is correct.
