I've been following AH since about early 2000. I've always been interested in some of the famous writers and stories of the golden age of African hunting, and finally decided to become a member of this forum. My bucket list has a safari on it, but not a typical safari, as there is only one animal that I am looking for, M'BOGO. That has been my dream since I was a small child, and I'm in my 60's now. Oh, and I want to do it Karamojo Bell style, with a 175 grain .275 Rigby. Some day...some day...
 
:S Welcome:
 
Good day! Welcome to AH! May you live your dream soon!!

Greetings BatshitCrazyRedneck,

Khomas Highland Hunting and Fishing Safaris of Namibia, welcomes you to the greatest forum on earth.

When you can spare a minute, I invite you to have a look into the Khomas Safaris website.

Regarding the buffalo hunting, it is a dream definitely worth making into reality.
I do not know if there is a country within Africa allowing hunters to use a small caliber for that species.
But if there is, I shall look forward to your hunt report one day.

The one in my below attached photo was knocked off his hooves twice, by a left and a right from my Army & Navy .450 No2 Nitro and 480 grain Hornady bullets (a soft and a solid).
I believe I was 58 years of age then.

Now about to turn 72, arthritis is beginning to beat me up more and more.
Exercise and eating “right” to keep my weight down helps a lot.
But I’m getting slower and my energy is deminishing, little by little.

My point ?
Go sooner than later.
Time slips away.
Don’t waste it in front of a television.
You will be glad you hunted Africa, before you became unable to walk the hills mile after beautiful mile, very glad.

Best Regards,
Velo Dog.

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?
