Some people chase the North American 29 and I have done a bit of that myself but for me Africa has been my thing. I didn’t realize it till the trip that was to complete it for me but in 2021 I was just one animal away from completing the SCI African 29 with a Roan Antelope. Now this was over 13 safaris and 14 years of hunting Africa to reach this moment. In the 14 years and 13+ safaris I traveled to 5 different countries within the continent and all but one multiple times. Now I did complete this with a archery Roan taken in the Northern Cape of South Africa once my article on this hunt is published within SCI magazine I’ll be able to share the full story here with all of you. But for now my journey to hunt and explore all of Africa continues.

Congrats, last month or so your photo was in SCI’s monthly newspaper type publication. Can’t remember the animal, not roan, but I recognized your name from this forum

Thank you! I believe that was an Gredos Ibex. This story should be in the next Magazine publication.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
