    Hunting Trophy Importation Bill (Prohibition) - Failed

    Just a quick note especially for our UK members - the above mentioned bill that was going through the Lords would have meant that you could no longer import 99% of hunting trophies to the UK regardless of circumstances. Well, the Lords being ever helpful have delayed the bill and in the Kings...

    Would you like a Cigar?

    Cuban cigar's quality assurance isn't as strong as the New World stuff; Davidoff, Avo are always good to go but the Cubans I have smoked have all been 50/50 as to whether they smoke through. I have a box of Cohiba Talismans that were bought initially for smoking... I think I am going to sell...

    Possible 2024 European Vacation, Where to go?!

    Budapest is outstanding, as is Krakow. If you can stop off in Iceland on the way over, do it. It is the most surprisingly wonderful country I have visited.

    Hunting Trophies over an Open Fireplace

    So, a sudden considerarion for me and I would welcome your comments. I have a 'man room' that my gracious wife was willing to allow me to have, and in that room I have an open fire with a cast iron fire surround. It is the perfect place to hang a shoulder mount, but my fear is the heat from the...

    Mixology report, whats your favorite mixed drink?

    Penicillin- 25ml of Lagavulin 25ml of a decent Speyside or Highland 25ml of honey syrup 25ml of lemon juice. Shake it to death, pour over ice. Better than medicine. Cures everything.

    I presume I fire the AR15 one handed from a helicopter? And have a witty comment ready for the final moments?

    Hello from the UK

    Well, I am fortunate to live in Norfolk, and we have an (apparently) endless supply of muntjac together with some decent red and the occasional Chinese Water Deer. My neighbour has access to some farming land nearby. Unfortunately, firearms licensing in the UK has been paused with regards to...

    Hello from the UK

    Evening team from the UK! I have been reading this forum for a few months and have developed a yearning to visit Africa, see the beauty of the land and hopefully bring back a trophy or two to decorate my study. No doubt to the average American hunter, I have very little experience; to a...

    Where Can You Get a Black Rhino Ticket

    Will you provide the slingshot or do I have to buy my own? Because if I have to buy my own, I expect a discount!

    Where Can You Get a Black Rhino Ticket

    Thanks for the clairification. I can assure you that the query is not judgemental (in ironic contrast to the accusation that I was judged a troll...) I appreciate there are few opportunities and situation may not change soon. Unfortunately, I live in the UK and there is a looming cloud of...

    Why do you sell a gun?

    The only time I have sold a gun (albeit a shotgun) is when I don't use it. But my first gun (a Winchester SXP Pump) I will never sell. Too many happy memories of scaring birds with it as I miss entirely... sniff...

    Where Can You Get a Black Rhino Ticket

    Afternoon guys, I have never hunted Africa, but have some very nostalgic, romantic notions of hunting there in the future. The question I have revolves around the black rhino. My understanding is that for the real Big 5, you need a black rhino. However, there are hardly any permits sold every...
