A Sableeee!!!! It´s my dream... Whath abeautiful animal!...
Goodspeed with the bow! Very difficult job for a bowman!... I hope you enjoy a succesful hunt!
Jeff, I just got back from a hunt with Tsala. I posted a report with photos yesterday. I took a great sable and a beautiful nyala. I believe you will have a great hunt.
Jeff, best of luck on your upcoming Sable hunt. Since we have hunted together in the past, I wanted to wish you well. Hope you see this before you leave. And to prove that there is no jealousy about you hunting in Africa, while I stay and work. In the heat. I will give you some good, sound advice.
1. Sable : Hold out for that 45". don't shoot anything less. At least you will know you tried. I will respect you for it. To know the joy, you must also feel the pain.
2. Concentrate on impala and blesbok. Try to get a giant one like that impala I killed on the bow hunt you sent me on.
3. No need to travel with your bows. You can pick up a nice outfit near Tambo Int'l for a song.
4. Lastly, if you get a crack at two sable, go for the light brown one.
Ever since hunting Namibia, where I took that beautiful 49" kudu I have hoped your luck could be just as good as mine. (Yes, that place. Where you killed the 58 incher)
I will await a pic of the blesie and the 'pala......................FWB
If I didn't know better I might think there was a slight amount of jealousy, I might disregard some of your wise and thoughtful advice! To put your troubled mind at ease go to hunting reports in the forum and look at the hunting report posted a couple days ago by BrianM about Tsala! I am having a hard time remembering that giant impala you mentioned, in my clouded memory I thought it was small and you had to wipe the milk from its chin befor photos. And remember the saying, a fun day at work beats a great day hunting or something like that.

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
hey bob , new on here. i specifically joined to enquire about a 444 you built on a Enfield 4-1 you built . who did the barrel and what was the twist and profile specs ? look foward to your reply . cheers
