How's it going everyone, new member here.
This is an exciting time because in about 8 months not only will I be going on my first hunt, but it will be in South Africa of all places! I already have my rifles and ammo picked out but I need some help with clothing and equipment/gear. I'm looking for input from everyone on what I should bring. I'm using Infinito Safaris, it'll be a 7 day hunt, and they have an included laundry service that runs every 2 days. All advice is welcome. Thanks everyone!
 
:S Welcome:
 
Your outfitter will have a packing list. Start with that and follow the threads here for a month or two.

Hey Cool, send me a PM and I’ll be glad to chat or possibly meet up depending on where you’re at. Hunted with Infinito last year and had an incredible time.

All the best,

Welcome. Where are you in Texas and what size are you? I just went thru my closet and to my surprise discovered my wife must have washed a bunch of my gear in super hot water which resulted in them shrinking a few sizes.

Well that’s a bummer… I guess now you have an excuse for all new stuff . I’m near the woodlands and I’m usually a L/XL in shirts and 33/34 waist and 30 length.
 
Welcome! Be sure to pack an electric converter for your electronics! They make them with USB ports as well.

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.

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?
