Hmmm… I have a good friend in Austin and a brother-in-law there as well. I was just down there in February. Let me think about this. I might make you an offer.

Plain talk with a measure of professionalism and good arguments that were well articulated.

I shoot my Lott a bunch and agree with @michael458 on scopes. I have two Leupold scopes that I have to alternate between. When one breaks, I send it for repairs and use the other. I haven’t been able to find a Nikon other than a 3x-9 that’s on my 30-06. Swarovski scopes also don’t hold up on...

You’ve drank a lot of Kool-Aid. What’s your favorite flavor? Cherry?

The open border globalists in the Biden administration are following Europe’s lead. Just look at what’s occurring on the college campuses right now. Even US cities have changed dramatically in demographics in my lifetime. Globalists are trying to erase white Judeo-Christian societies.

Phil is a good man. Hunts are running $35k - $40k right now. Many Registered Guides are struggling with the radical decisions made in the latest 10-year prospectus concession reassignment on USFWS lands on the Alaskan Peninsula and on Kodiak made by an out-going manager that is now...

This topic really struck a nerve with you. Lol :A Drive::A Type:

To me, a safari is a trip to hunt in wild areas in Africa and in areas where it is possible to fly camp, if needed. Photo safaris are not true safaris. In the old days, safaris were for hunting in wild areas, not photography.

Who are you booking with? You can easily get the Kafue lechwe in one day from Lusaka at the end of your trip and they are the biggest species of lechwe.

I also love the Corsair!

My friend, you certainly are in love and nothing if not consistent. Lol :giggle: :D

Doubling up in 2025 and just hunted Tanzania last November so taking 2024 off to rebuild the war chest. So far, I haven’t drawn anything good in the USA but one can always hope!

I just talked to Fico a few days ago from Kansonso. He’s there scouting and getting ready for the season. Seeing lots of game he said! One of my friends is going with him in September.

You, @375Fox and @LivingTheDream are definitely enablers! I ended up with Cameroon in February 2025 for LDE and roan; June 2025 for rhino dart; April 2026 for polar bear (I bought a replica mount a few years ago at auction for “only” $4k) and April 2027 for mountain nyala in Ethiopia to finish...

Oh boy, I bet you’re getting excited!

SCI announced they are looking for hunters planning to hunt elephant after May 1, 2024 because they have filed an intent to sue the USFWS over the new rules. The yearly certifications required of the countries and the wording about no loss of habitat are definitely problematic. All countries...

https://www.africahunting.com/threads/safari-club-international-opposes-final-usfws-african-elephant-import-rule.81185/ There you go.

I posted on the new rules extensively on another thread. Let me see if I can find it.

Agreed and also agree that the food is the worst of any major airline. Yuck and I’m not a picky eater.

If any of you guys are hunting elephant after the new rules take effect on May 1st, SCI wants to know. SCI has filed an intent to sue due to the new rules.

Has Hamas released any proof that the hostages are even still alive?

Ha ha well I can assure you that other than my experience in the CAR, my other experiences are fairly commonplace among guides and PHs so I don’t think they would be worried about hunting with me. I have heard many a hair-raising story from PHs and other guides. Being a guide or a PH in wild...

Twice. One run-in with a boomslang just above my head-shoulders with mouth open and another with a mamba that rose up next to me. Luckily wasn’t bit but close. Had a couple stiff drinks those nights!

Mike Fell sometimes carries a .577 double rifle. He put down a wounded charging buffalo with it a couple years ago. He waited until the buffalo was very close so he couldn’t miss and killed it but the momentum of the buffalo carried into him and the horn tip penetrated his thigh, just missing...

This happens in MX all the time. I’ve seen it twice. One was an American desert sheep guide from AZ. It took a lot of money to get him out of MX jail. I think it was $13k.

The cult of personality.

Welcome to AH! I’ve got family in Casper and I am trying to get my cousin there to go to Africa with me in 2025. I live between Laramie and Fort Collins and almost went to UW but couldn’t afford the nonresident tuition at the time and ended up at my second choice, CSU. I love WY and have...

Glad to see your dad is a man of his word. I did the same for my son. When he was five years-old he said he wanted to hunt Dall’s sheep. I told him then that I would take him sheep hunting if he did good in school and got a college degree. He did and I took him sheep hunting last year in the...

1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Heck no. Wear Meindl when hunting. 4. Ariat or Justin or Tony Lama. Whatever looks good when I need a new pair. Not a boot snob.

Really they don’t? It’s an example of physics with your arm being the rifle. Same principles apply. And yes the 7mm-08 is light for eland but he’s not sure he’s hunting eland.

I had a three alarm fever when I had three 375 H&Hs but sold one so the fever is subsiding. The two remaining are an AHR upgraded CZ550 375 H&H set up for Alaska and a Whitworth Interarms Safari Classic 375 H&H set up for Africa. Also have an AHR upgraded 458 Lott but didn’t get the 416 fever...

LLCs provided money to several family members including women with no jobs. I guess the money just drops from the sky.

WHAT ABOUT THE MONEY AND LLCs??

I guess LLC shells, sworn testimony and meetings with Hunter’s business partners are not evidence in your world!

Come on @Saul are you trying to tell us that all the money that was shown flowing into several LLCs that can be traced to Biden family members is legit? Do you think Bush or even Obama had dozens of LLCs to funnel money to family? Does your family have dozens of LLCs? I’ve had one Subchapter...

I cannot like this post enough!! Spot on!

For brown bear? I don’t think anything under 30 caliber would be considered a caliber for all NA game.

The 338 WM with 225 grain bullets has about the same trajectory as the 30-06 with 165/180 grain bullets but more power for elk, moose and brown bear. It’s a bit much for pronghorn but I have used it and stayed away from the shoulder for meat reasons.

Both. More voted than ever before and the states with prior mailed ballots also saw a further increased turnout by mail.

The rules just changed so be careful where you book a hunt.

I edited my post. College educated people showed the highest increases in mailed ballots according to the US Census Bureau and they lean liberal.

What an A1 prick and mostly lies.

Your assumptions are incorrect about mailed ballots increasing Republican turnout. Actually, the opposite is true. Lately, college educated people are voting more for Democrats than ever before. Their numbers of votes went up and had the highest percentage increases of the population for...

Yes and Clarence Thomas called it “befuddling and incomprehensible” as to why his colleagues would not hear the case.

Yes, Hilary deleted emails, some containing classified information and nothing was done. Clinton paid Paula Jones $800k and nobody put him on trial. The DOJ tried to give Hunter Biden a pass, but luckily the judge stopped it.

Older voters are not a monolithic, especially in the urban areas where most people are liberal and where most people live. Do think most elderly voters in NJ cities are Republicans? I surely don’t. The blacks and other minorities certainly aren’t either.

SCOTUS doesn’t bring cases to themselves and almost all cases SCOTUS reviews have to work their way up through the lower courts.

According to the US Census Bureau: A third group of states saw large shifts in their use of nontraditional voting between 2016 and 2020. In New Jersey, for example, 7.9% of voters cast ballots early or by mail in 2016, compared with 92.3% in 2020, when all registered New Jersey voters received...
