Hello Everyone,
My name is Brent and I'm from Pennsylvania. I've been reading the forums for a long time and just now became a member. I've read some of the best and most interesting threads here and have gained much knowledge from these reads. My first South Africa plains game hunt is all booked and I'm counting down the days. This is an absolutely fantastic site. I'm glad I finally joined!
 
:S Welcome:
 
Fantastic and welcome aboard. We look forward to your hunt report! What are your hunt plans and goals?
 
Welcome Aboard.
Happy Hunting.
Where and who are you hunting with in South Africa?
 
I was with INFINTO SAFARIS in Limpopo 11-18 May we were supposed to be hunting night critters but the late rains and full moon put a damper on hunting night critters. Everything was still green and the brush was thick. After 4 nights and only getting 3 porcupines, 2 duikers, (1 of each going to the farm rep for meat), and 1 last minute decision to hunt bushbuck, I pulled the plug on night critters and went daytime hunting for PG.

Hopefully your hunts should be better with less green bush so you can see/find your animals in the thick stuff.

Even in May the weather was cool enough to wear a heavy coat, bakalav, and gloves, riding on the back of the bakki during a couple of night hunts.
[around 42°F, Feel Like Temp with 10 -15 mph winds around 38°F, freaking cold for a southeasterner in the USA].

Here's the target for the NorthForks - 25yds off a bag, iron sights. Hunting leopards over dogs the range won't be more than that.

Flew in an airshow in Smyrna years ago, beautiful country.

Best regards,

Franco
