Greetings from South Africa
Fellow Conservationist / Hunter interested in all things African flora and fauna
Currently resident in the KwaZulu-Natal province
Also interested in all aspects of firearms - history / technical / gun-smithing / reloading / competition
Have spent time in and travelled extensively in SWA ( Namibia ) Rhodesia ( Zimbabwe ) on the Zambezi river and hunted in those territories. By fortuitous circumstance without any outfit or PH. Nothing serious Kudu / Impala / Springbuck. Although I saw the big five in very close proximity every day I did not develop any wish to shoot any big DG. Really just enjoyed observing. Pretty much the way I still feel. ( although admitting that here may be counted as "sacrilege" ) :)
Although I did tag along on a successful Buffalo hunt.
After many times landing on this site after searching the InterWebz I thought it time to actually sign up participate and take advantage of the wealth of knowledge here.
I am currently in the strange position of having fully paid for rifles ( a VOERE 30-06 on a Mauser action and a HOWA 1500 in 300WM ) which I do not currently own - until the .. "Application to posses a firearm" has been vetted and granted. A strange situation
I am grateful for the opportunity to register and participate here and look forward to future interaction

Hello! I would like to recommend this website for playing slot machines - https://beton.ua/slots-games , because I have been playing all the new and high-quality slot machines on this website for a long time and winning real money. Therefore, I think that this website for playing slot machines will also suit you. So good luck playing here and see you soon!
Nice to have you here! Greetings!
 
Boy, have you come to the right place. Welcome and good luck getting your permits in order.
 
Welcome to AH Lybica!
 
Welcome aboard!
 
Many thanks for all the welcomes
One thing I forgot to mention but might have been picked up by my intro
I am also very interested in / fascinated by the early history of DG hunting in Africa in the early ( "terrible" ) colonial days. As well as the general history of this time period
The high mark of the quintessential "African-Safari"
I also try and collect books about these early days.
I did get dragged along to "Out of Africa" which I actually enjoyed and went and read more about.
Especially Beryl Markham ( as Aviatrix )

Hello! I saw your post from last year about a missing crate from your hunt in Moz. I am curious how that all turned out? We (my fiancé and I) also hunted in Moz in 2024 and the trophies are being shipped with Hunters Services Limitada. We have some concerns on whether we will get the trophies home or not. May I ask who you hunted with?
