Greetings Ladies and Gents of AH, My name is Matt Anderson. I've lurked around on here for years and now that hunting Africa is a real possibility, I decided to join. My Wife and of course my ten year old Son are both interested in sharing the experiences with me, which definitely makes it more doable than having a spouse resent a solo trip but indeed a bit more pricey.
I'm lucky enough to say I've been quite a few places across the globe, however, being Veteran, the trips haven't always been the most glamorous. That being said, I've always enjoyed the adventure and appreciated the wildlife wherever I've been.

I'm excited to learn as much as I can from you fine people and have already started saving my pennies, so I guess I'm officially in the pre planning/planning phase.
Advice is welcome!

Currahee. -Matt

Welcome to AH Matt! Glad you decided to join us on the posting side.
 
Hello and welcome Matt!!
 
Welcome Sir, and thank you for your service!
:S Welcome:
 
Welcome Matt! Uncle Sam has some piss poor travel destinations for the lowly enlisted man. I got to see quite a few of them myself. Looking back though I wouldn’t change a damned thing though. Some of the finest men I’ve ever known were met there.
Enjoy and plan wisely, you only get one first Safari.
Cheers,
Cody
 
Howdy and Welcome!
It is never too soon to start the planning of your first safari! And you have come to the right place. Having a wife that is excited about it too is a wonderful thing!
Enjoy the process however long it takes :)
 
Welcome to the posting side.
One more step completed on the way to Africa.
 
Welcome to the posting side sir.
 
Welcome again Matthew! Thanks for your service!
Now start planning your first Africa safari! You might start by looking under Safari Guide at the top of the page. Tons of great info here! Anything you can’t find, be sure to ask. We will all be more than happy to get you addicted to Africa;)!
 
Welcome aboard!

The folks you will "meet" here come from all walks of life but have a common thread. That being their passion for hunting. There are subject matter experts for virtually every aspect of the sport. Sit back and enjoy the ride, but most of all feel free to join in and post your knowledge of and or thoughts on subjects being discussed.
 
Welcome to AH Matt. Enjoy the planning just as fun as the adventure....nah who am I kidding. Enjoy

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
