Hello, 1st post here, been reading for several months and it appears to contain a wealth of information. I am going to my 1st SCI in a couple weeks and was wondering if a person could get a pretty good feel of things in 2 days? Anything i definitely "dont want to miss"? Im trying to figure out best way to budget my time.

Thanks and I look forward to taking in all the information and knowledge contained by the members here.

Welcome to AH! 2 days to cover is the SCI convention is pretty challenging. I would add one more day if possible. If not, then go to the SCI website and find the list of exhibitors and make a plan for how to cover them.
 
Welcome to AH! You can cover all exhibitors in one day if your just browsing, but if you have any hunting intentions, you definitely will need several. You have many outfitters who offer the same things, but only after talking with them can you make your decision. You'll also come across hunts in countries you never considered and all of a sudden .........bingo!
 
:S Welcome:
 
Never done SCI, but I have done DSC. 2 days should be fine if they are at all similar. If there is a Craig Boddington buffalo lecture, you gotta do it. Any meet ups from online communities or with PHs are the best part in my opinion. It’s nice talking with people about their experiences with hunts you want to pursue, but from my perspective most of the booths at shows are for people with more money than I’ll see in a decade
 
Good day! Welcome!

Do you mind me asking what auction you are referencing? I'm not in the market for any of those rifles...just curious.

Frosty in Fort Worth

Good morning from Montana.

I'm looking at a post from 2018 where you were looking for a lefty Winchester in .375 H&H Magnum. I'm selling mine. My email is [redacted] in the event that you're still searching for a unicorn.

Best,

Kelly Palmer
Gents, if you book and pay your deposit before the end of this year , you can have the bigger cull package for the 2026 price! https://www.africahunting.com/threa...griffiths-safaris-starting-at-us-2-560.96285/
