post a hunt report with those pics as well please!
we all want to know who you hunted with, the details of each hunt.. how was the lodge.. how was the food.. how was the PH.. etc..etc..
hunted with Motsomi Safaris. they were excellent. the food was wonderful. I hunted Impala, Blesbok, Zebra, Wildebeest, warthog, and of course the Sable. My PH was PC ,the son of the owners. He was very knowledgeable, and great to hunt with. this was all in Limpopo province

Congratulations! I had been married to my wife for some 19 years and while I could drag her out with me from time to time to hunt, she had no interest herself.....and then we went to Africa and the taxidermy bill has grown more that I thought it ever would. Got her broke in to shooting my .375HH this spring for our upcoming trip, my bank account is weeping already.

You know the rule if there is no pictures it never happened.
Glad you and your wife had a great trip.

Welcome to the Africa club! Took my wife and daughter in 2018. Both say it was the best trip ever. Africa spoils you. Going back next summer to Caprivi Strip for buffalo.

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!
