We had a great day with our incredibly gracious hosts! Thank you! My fiance stepped right up when offered the opportunity to shoot any of the available weaponry. She had no previous experience with dangerous game calibers and not a ton of shooting experience in general. She first picked up a M70 .375 H&H and shot like a pro. She decided to bypass the multiple .416s present and went right to the .500NE doubles, firing multiple rounds through the Heym and V/C rifles. And doing so accurately!! Then she picked up the .416 bolt rifles and shot those, as well. It was impressive to watch and I'm incredibly proud of her! I never expected her to ever pull the trigger on a .500 Nitro double, let along shoot it so well! She started her hunting career 3 years ago on our plains game hunt in SA, taking 4 animals herself. I see a buffalo in her future!

It's worth mentioning that @franzfmdavis and I met through this forum. That's one more reason that I appreciate being a part of this group.

2025 Moose. Bedding next to that tent was not the best decision.

I didn't see your request re: ship co’s. My last shipment was 2023. Quotes from SBS Logistics ($1,198), Badger Cargo ($1,184 - used them) & AHG Trophy Shippers ($1,746). AHG owner's an asshole so wouldn't have used him anyway. Eastern Cape - Houston, TX, so your mileage may vary. NEVER use Karl Human Taxidermy aka Wild Africa Taxidermy on Eastern Cape. Trophies arrived shattered with no padding/packing material.
