I"m a dumbass apparently and just realized my passport has expired. Has anyone been through the renewal process lately, how long did it take? Thanks in advance.

We serve a risen Savior! God is in control. Hope you all have a good one.

I just left our new mega gun store/indoor shooting range and lo and behold there stood the legend himself, John Sharp. I must have visited with him for an hour. He was very impressive, and seemed like a genuinely nice guy, He will be selling his book Facing Down Fear in the store tomorrow from...

While my Namibian outfitter friend is in the States for the DSC and SCI shows in early 2018, I may take him mule deer hunting. He would really like to have the trophy imported back into Africa, specifically Namibia, but doesn't know the rules and I certainly don't. Anybody know?

I'm wanting to booking a hunt for May '17, and would like some guidance please. Route will be Dallas to JNB, will not fly business class because I'd rather spend the $$$ on trophy fees. 1. Delta-done this 4 times, upgraded to economy comfort every time for about $400. Haven't had any issues...

This is my 55" kudu bull from Kowas Safaris Namibia, 2014 safari. World Champion Jerry Huffaker did exceptional work once again.

I just returned from Namibia, via J'Burg a couple of days ago. Air Namibia out of WHoek made the return trip a true adventure......one in which Opus1 had warned me about prior to booking plane tickets. So we get to WH airport Saturday, August 20th, a couple hours early only to find long lines...

About to land in Atlanta having completed 9 days in Namibia with Kowas. Besides the superlative trophy quality, heir attention to detail puts Kowas in a position of having no.peers. I downed 10 management /non trophy animals, passed 4 kudu bulls in the 52-54" class (immature still a couple...

I am headed to Windhoek Thursday. Schedule looks like this: DAL to ATL--Delta ATL-JNB--Delta 200 Here's the rub. In light of Delta's computer shutdown Mondy, there have been numerous cancellations and delays at Delta. I am concerned about the DAL to ATL leg,as they cancelled that flight on...

My buddy is taking his bow to Namibia, and our hunt is for Aug 11-20. He is a very accomplished hunter, having taken well over 150 deer with his bow. Question: Namibia has a restriction on the weight your arrow/broadhead combo, depending on whether you're hunting big game, medium game, etc...

I had this email from my Namibian outfitter this morning. This would be worth checking out: Dear Johnny The following traveling requirement is applicable in the event your travels take you to South-Africa, even only in-transit: Upon arriving to South-Africa, each passport is required to...

Well done DSC.

Interesting read (read about this on another forum and found it to be most interesting): http://www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2015-07-14-blood-lions-the-film-that-blows-the-brutal-lid-off-the-canned-hunting-industry/#.VaUmKbX6gwC

Wanted to give a public thanks to Steve at Travel With Guns. So he books my flight to Namibia over 3 months ago, Midland-Dallas-Atlanta-JBurg. I get an automated call from American Airlines last night at 8:45pm telling me my midland to Dallas flight for 8am tomorrow morning had been canceled...

I am headed back to Namibia late April 2015. Last year I used Gracy Travel's ticketing and meet/greet services as well as pre approved SAPS, and stayed at City Lodge in the JB airport. All went well. However, in the spirit of trying something different, I am booked at AfricaSky Guesthouse in...

I was in the central part of Namibia, about 90 miles S of Windhoek, a mixture of flat ground and rocky, sandy, with very large hills. I arrived in camp around 1:00pm and was shown to my room to get myself and gear situated. Once accomplished, we customarily headed to the range to check things...

Have any of you guys hunted with Uhlenhorst Hunting Safaris in Namibia, or know much about them. I've checked what few references I have and they look good so far. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Anybody know anything about them, W.F. Mans Safaris KumKum Game Ranch, good, bad, or ugly. I met them at DSC and became interested in hunting there. Thanks in advance.

Hearing from one Namibian outfitter that the country is in the middle of a drought, the driest in 50 years. Can anyone else confirm or deny that? I'm wanting to go to Namibia next year, but this may delay it a year if true. Thanks in advance.

I've recovered enough to start with telling you good folks about my hunt, an experience I cannot hardly put into words. I'm going to take a page out of dvdgeorge's book and post it a day at a time. My goal is to do great justice to what I've experienced. I have a tough time with that usually, as...

To all who have posted here about their upcoming hunts, I wish you the best of luck, be safe, and go make some memories. Neither my son nor my nephew could get loose from school to accompany me, but I will be joined by one of my best buddies of over 30 years on our first safari. We're headed...

I'm mainly concerned about combatting a tick/bug/spider bite, etc if one should occur. I have Immodium AD already to help with the possibility of that issue. I've read some of the merits of having antibiotics around. I'm scheduled for a checkup about a week before I leave for SA in May. There...

Looks like a buddy and myself, both first timers, are booking a hunt with Koedoeberg for May. Thanks to all who have helped me get over my narrow mindedness and preconceived ideas. Anyway......I have a very narrow window for departure. I have to arrive in J'berg on 5/11/13. First thoughts...

Has anyone hunted with this outfitter in Namibia, Otjinuke Hunting Ranch. I've checked some of their references and so far so good, but I'm hoping to hear from some around here who have been hunting with him. Thanks for the help.

Anyone know anything about Frontier Safaris? Owners are Barry and Lizelle Burchell. They have been in the safari business for 20 years or so. I've read what little I could find here on a lawsuit a few years ago regarding the owner, but I'm wanting to hear from people who have hunted with him in...

Why do some outfitters charge for an airport transfer fee, and some outfitters just include it in their package fees?

Myself and 2 or 3 buddies are going to try and plan a safari for June/July/August of 2013. It will either be in SA or Namibia we've decided. We would rather not hunt high fence at all, and will not hunt high fenced places of 5000 acres or less. Barbed wire cattle fences are OK. I'm told that...

I am looking for a safari for myself and a couple of buddies. I've been lurking here, and researching other forums for about a year now and have learned a lot here. In my research, I'd have to say "Let the buyer beware with Bushwack." It seems he cares more about money than his fellow man. I...
