Welcome to AH TheGrayRider! Glad you found us, I think that you will enjoy your time here.
 
Welcome to AH.
Write up a hunt report on the first trip when you get a moment.
 
Welcome to AH The Grey Rider. Sounds like your hunting "Dance card" is filled up for a couple of years. What is on the menu for your planned New Zealand and African hunts? What rifles do you own and or hunt with other than your favorite 7 MM Mag?
 
Welcome to AH and thank you for your service to our country. Like to hear about your first safari.

Welcome to AH The Grey Rider. Sounds like your hunting "Dance card" is filled up for a couple of years. What is on the menu for your planned New Zealand and African hunts? What rifles do you own and or hunt with other than your favorite 7 MM Mag?

New Zealand- stag, tahr, chamois

RSA- kudu, zebra, sable, Blue wildebeest - usual PG hunt

Guns owned - nothing special.

Best trip ever- solo week-long canoeing the White Cliffs area of the Missouri River Breaks, Montana. Followup trip to rifle mule deer hunt. Can’t wait to return. Lewis and Clark were true explorers.

Favorite book- The Lord of the Flies by Sir William Golding.

Current reads - East of Eden by John Steinbeck and A Sand County Almanac by Aldo Leupold.

Another great read - The Long Walk by Slavomir Rawicz

Most respected modern explorer- Ed Stafford, read “Walking the Amazon” - the guy has a pair, made of titanium.

Happy hunting, The Gray Rider.

Good morning,
Did you hunt w Leeuwkop at their ranch or in Zimbabwe? The ranch looks awesome, but I'll be in Zimbabwe for buffalo and whatever else we dig up.
What did you hunt for?
Vaccines?
What rifle did you use?
I feel like I need a good cotton safari shirt and an ammo belt to make the hunt feel right!
How often did you shoot prior to going?
Did you use sticks for shooting practice?
