CAMEROON: Bongo & Forest Sitatunga - May 15-31, 2024

Congrats on your adventure in getting 2 very nice animals.

Thanks for your very interesting report about your hunt.
 
Congratulations on a fine bongo and the rare forest sitatunga! The jungle is a specialized hunt... as you said, buggy, warm and humid. I seemed to be always covered in sweat and uncomfortable but the prizes the jungle offers are worth the price. Well done. I am sure both trophies will be viewed over the rest of your years with fond memories!
 
Fabulous trip- not sure how I missed it when it was posted.
 
Congratulations great hunt and write up! I’ve been infatuated with bongo since I saw an article about hunting them in Outdoor Life probably 50 years ago. That would be my ultimate hunt, a hunt that will probably never happen but I love the dream of it. Congratulations again!
 
Awesome report! I depart for Cameroon in 22 days!
Good luck! Where and who are you hunting with? Hunt hard and don't get discouraged. Got my bongo on day 14 of 21 days!

Congratulations. You are about to depart on one of the world’s great hunts in a truly remote area. I want to return to the African equatorial jungle again for another hunt, in due time.

Best of luck and please share your photos and stories upon your return. Happy hunting to all, TheGrayRider a/k/a Tom.

I'll be hunting with mayo oldiri.
 
Update: I picked up my crate this afternoon from the Cameroon May 2024 jungle hunt for bongo and forest sitatunga at the Coppersmith Chicago warehouse. (11 month delivery and turnaround - not too bad.)

All of the bongo and forest sitatunga horns, hides, and skulls were in good shape and very well labeled and packaged. Next stop is the taxidermist. Happy hunting to all, TheGrayRider a/k/a Tom.

Enjoyed your story immensely (and still reading!)

Congrats on the bongo. That's not one i see everyday.

Back After a Long Time – Hello Again!


Hi everyone,


I’ve been a member since 2015 but haven’t been active since 2017. Life got busy, especially with building my second business. Still, I’ve kept my passion for hunting and followed things from afar. Now that I have more time, I’m excited to reconnect, contribute, and be part of the community again.


All the best,
ANDY

I'd like a bag of 100. I could actually pick it up since I'm in North Irving, but if you prefer, shipping it is fine.
