Thanks! No hunting trip lives up to the birth of a child that's for sure. On the other hand, hunting trips are much cheaper ha.

Guys any advice on footwear? I have some New Balance hiking shoes I wear for elk hunting, and chippewa or cowboy boots for the rest of the hunting I do.

Light soft sole hikers work fine..

I was teased a bit in the thread where I posted this, and some in camp, but Vibram 5Fingers worked well for me! It's like going barefoot, if you're into that sort of thing. I now have 3 pairs of these. I enjoy them for running in the trails at the local nature park.
Whatever is comfortable for you, with plenty of miles traveled for wear-in. The other pair I wore were desert suede boots from Blackhawk. I still wear those from time to time, but I've got others I prefer now.

Nice hog, Are there more where it came from? Do you need any help getting rid of them?

Many more. I have about 30 that visit every night.

Fellow AH'ers, my hunting partner has dropped out of our Aug 6-13th hunt in Limpopo. Id like to fill the spot without placing the burden on the outfitter. Does anybody have interest? I will be flying out of Houston Aug 4th for a 5th arrival at Tambo. Thanks and happy hunting.
