My name's Russ and I have a problem... oh wait, no, we call it "fun" here.
I grew up (mostly) in the not so great state if IL in an anti-gun, anti-hunting family but got married, got out, and found the light. I've been actively into firearms for maybe 5 years or so but up till now haven't hunted more than groundhogs having their way with the garden. Then, the other night at a FNRA banquet, a friend talked me into splitting a group package African hunt that nobody else bid on... go big or go home right? Wife's stoked too. still trying to figure out what all we don't know.
Talked to my mom about watching our 6yo while we're away. She has more of a disney/bambi view of hunting. She'd been to Africa before on more of a mission/culture tourism trip tho and was curious about our trip. "yea mom it won't really BE anywhere, kinda more nowhere. It'll be sightseeing, finding the animals, some other stuff... then eating them" "well that'll be fun. oh, eating them what... uh... that'll be... interesting..." lol
