Two years ago today, I took a great buffalo in Zim. hunting with Shingani Safaris.
As of today, there is still no paperwork to make it exportable! I'm told by the
taxidermist that she has been that trying for over a year to get Riaan to produce
the documents needed and now it is pretty much hopeless. Not sure what to do
at this point other then to just write it off.
I saved for years to go on this hunt and it was a terrible experiance all the way
around. My advice is to steer clear of Shingani Safaris and Riaan Vosloo. The
man is a lier and a crook.

Crappy anniversary to say the least.
 
Pictures and memories!
 
The pictures and memories are what you have...many are going that rout these days with the added expense of dip & Pack and shipping and taxidermy work and shipping again. it cost almost as much as the safari sometimes...

While a bummer look forward and not back...what was will never change...

Question...have you tried to obtain paperwork through your outfitter?

I read an older thread that mentioned you having some 9.3x64 brass. Do you still have some? I am looking for 100 pcs, maybe 200.
A wonderful trip to Hungary with a very special friend !
