2 months from today we will be landing at camp for our first safari. The trip has been on the books for 18 months but is getting real now and the excitement is building. Still lots of things to get done…. I appreciate all the help and info from people on this site. Myself and 3 buddies will be hunting 16 days in Moyowosi and Lake Natron areas of Tanzania. Hopefully will have a good report to share before too long!

I remember my first safari. When I had airplane tickets in the pocket, I refused to think about it. I simply would not be able to sleep, thinking of the first safari.
Good luck,looking fwd to your report!

I believe it's called "group enabling."
I’m 25 days out. It’s intense

I’ll be heading over in August 24th. This will be my 5th safari since 2009 and I’m just as excited for this one as any of the others. Got a couple of new rifles I am taking for the first time and that has added quite a bit to the excitement for me on this trip. Getting these rifles sighted in and practicing with them has been quite an enjoyable part of the preparation this time. Enjoy the anticipation of an upcoming safari as it will pass all too fast and you’ll have to start planning the next one.

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.

Hello,
Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.
Thank you for your time,
Andrew
