Leaving today for Cameroon to hunt Bongo and Forest Buffalo. I will be hunting with Northern Operations Africa.
After 2 years I must say that I don’t think I realized how much I missed Africa!
I’m not sure what my internet situation will be in camp but will post from there as the situation permits.

Once you have hunted the forests of Cameroon you realize hunting is not a pastime but a way of life. Good luck and have a great adventure.
 
Have a great hunt and please document it well...


Safe travels and great hunt!!!
 
Awesome! Have a great trip, look forward to the report!
 
Good luck! Be prepared to sweat from every pore and get rained on at times. Don’t worry about staying dry and just embrace it. You’re not going to get hypothermia anyway! I’m sure you will get your animals with persistence.
 
Good luck, safe travels and shoot straight. Will be watching for your report.
 
I’ve hunted with Northern Operations. Dave runs a great company, so I have no doubt you will have a wonderful time. Bongo are one of the great prizes of Africa - moments to savour!

Good luck!
 
Wish you the best of luck !
 
Good shooting! Looking fwd to your report!
 
Good Luck and Good Hunting! I’ve been to the rainforest twice and can’t wait to relive those moments through your report.
 
Let me give a quick update to the trip to Cameroon. After 27 hours of travel I landed in Douala, Cameroon at 8:30 PM proceeded to have to take a rapid COVID-19 nasal exam. That would’ve been fine except the form was in French and illegible. After figuring out how to fill that form out took my exam and proceeded to claim my luggage. 90 minutes of security - police station , everyone getting involved that probably didn’t need to, i.e. the normal Africa experience, I got permission to enter the country. Off to the Star Land Hotel for a plane flight tomorrow. Weather is your typical 90 degrees with 90% humidity. Can’t wait to get into the jungle and chase after the Bongo. More to follow...

Enjoy - I have spent weeks in the Star Land and months in Cameroon - sadly all work related with no opportunities for hunting.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
