I lived in Kenya in the 1970s - and worked for the East African and International Professional Hunters' Associations in Nairobi. There I had the privilege of meeting and getting to know men who were - and are - counted among the greats in the history of East African professional hunting. I learned many things from them about their love of the bush and the animals themselves and the respect they had for both. I have personal photographs and letters that I still treasure. I also have a collection of books written by or about the ones that I knew. I count myself very fortunate to have been a part of their lives and have maintained contact with some. I'm happy to have found Africa Hunting and be able to join you.

Karibu Judy.

Glad to have you here.

Did you work for EAPHA through 1977/8 when Kenya abolished hunting?

You probably have many great stories that we would be enthralled to hear. Please feel free to share some as you have the opportunity.

All the best.
 
Welcome to AH, Surely seem like you had a great time as a PH, would have loved to meet some of the Great White hunters from the past...
 
Judy,

A couple of photos from the EAPHA archives. Obviously before your time, but names you probably recognize. Some you probably knew.

The more history and tales the better, as far as I am concerned.

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
