Dear Africa Hunting members,
I am Ron Thomson, after 25 years of service to the Rhodesian National Parks Department, of which I was the Provincial Game Warden in charge of Hwuange and the Gonarezhou National parks, and author of more than 20 books including seven big game hunting memoir books.

Thanks to @Frederik I am now part of this great community.
 
Welcome on board Ron. I have very much enjoyed your books, as I am certain have many others on here. Having your vast experience and knowledge on the forum will be most valuable to us all.
 
Welcome to the forum, Sir!
 
Welcome Ron - very much looking forward to your contibutions
 
Welcome to a fantastic place for hunters and African enthusiasts to gather and share. Looking forward to your contributions to our happy home.
 
Welcome Ron. I will have to look up your books. Cheers from NZ.
 
Welcome!

We can use an experienced African hunter on this Forum. Hoping that you will occasionally act as a moderator in disputes, particularly regarding DG hunting and also the rifles and ammunition used for it. I am not as old as you, but I am over seventy years old and therefore I hold views regarding especially buffalo and elephants hunting that are not always in line with the younger generations of clients which hunt in Africa.
 
Welcome, Oom Ron it took sometime but you are now part of a great group of people who loves hunting understands sustainable use and loves nature.

I will keep visiting (drink a nice cup of coffee) and show you and Elma how the forum works it takes sometime to undestand how to do everything but we will get there
 
@WR Thomson , welcome to the forum. I have greatly enjoyed reading your writings. If anyone else hasn’t read Ron Thomson’s books get ordering now.
 
Great to have you join us. Really looking forward to learning your perspective on things.
 
Welcome to AH! We look forward to you sharing your considerable experience with us.
 
Welcome to AH!

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.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
