Lately I've been in contact with Jerome from Ozondjahe Safaris. Sounds like it's the place for me and my longbow.
Now the fun begins. I find hashing out the details amost as much fun as the hunt.
Is nine months ahead too early to begin packing?
 
You will have a great hunt with Jerome
No 9 months is not enough-it cuts the planning and packing fun time down :)
You will be banned here if you don't write up your hunt when you get back. WITH PICTURES!

...and I can do it to. :)

Look forward to your report and pictures.
 
Cliffy, no worries on the pics...
Last trip to SA I took over 450 stills and 13+ hours of video (Got my Impala on film at the "Turn your head and cough" moment) :biggrin:
 
Geeee Cliffy & Brickburn

Buzz1858 will be shaking in his boots and probably miss now...

Jerome will be in a slump and the story goes down hill fast...from there...
 
Ah James, got you there...
No animals, misses, PH in a slump, who cares?
It's AFRICA man!

There we go. Please do share it.
 
Brickburn, have to see if I can figure out how to edit/post vids here...

Also have my zebra on tape, right up until I let go of the string, when I kicked the tripod over (oops)
 
Ok, I give up - how do you post vids here? Do I have to use you tube?
Got the files on the computer, but no url's for them.

Yes better to post them on YouTube and then link them to your post.
 
Okay, think I got it....
Nock shattered when I released, so arrow was going pretty much sideways - but it worked.
Nice of him to come back - no tracking. :cool:

It certainly worked.
Nice trophy.
 
Good luck on your trip!
Take lots of photos and be sure you savor every moment of the adventure, you only get one first African Safari.

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.
