I got a feed to a story about Scott van Zyl this morning.

I do not even have words for the people speaking ill of him.

Never had the pleasure of meeting him, but I assume he is much like the rest of us: in it for the chase, win or lose. Mostly we win, but Scott threw snake eyes his last trip out. I'm sad for his family, but not for Scott. Lucky bastard went out doing something he loves doing.

I wish I could be as lucky as Scott van Zyl, and die doing something I love doing.
 
Jerome, don't know if you're aware or not, but they killed a few narrow-snouted gators (you folks call them crocodiles) in the neighborhood and are pretty well convinced that's what happened to him after discovering human DNA in their gullets.

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
