Just recently got back from a hunt in the Limpopo with @MORETLA SAFARIS (I only know that it was the Limpopo because they told me where I was)and had one of those "hunt of my life" experiences.Hunted with the Moretla mob,bagged a Sable after almost 3 days of failed walk and stalks.Lots of frustration....big hunting learning stuff....biggest learn....patience.Bagged a Red Hartebeest,an Impala and the most beautiful(but not medal winning)Oryx ever did you see.Much to my personal shame,terribly took a shot on a Zebra..and on another day...completely missed a Blue Wildebeest,I (talk to my lawyer if you say something like"they don`t have access to cell phone towers,they don`t have the technology) believe the Zebra and Blue Wildebeest were in cahoots and contacted each other with the African Wildlife network via critter Instagram.Anyways,just wanted to share my hunt.You married?Get divorced.You have a mortgage?sell and rent.Africa is our God...you MUST come hunting.Thank you for your patience.

Couldn`t agree more.Would like to give a shout out to Moretla Safaris...treated my whiny excuse making arse with the most tolerable of attitudes.
 
Congrats on the hunt! Got any pictures?
 
Congrats on the hunt and glad to have another person with the addiction share part of the experience. So when are you going back?
 
The Limpopo area is very game rich. I too have hunted near Alldays and almost as far west as you can get in Limpopo province. It’s a huge province!
I’d like to see some pictures if you took any?
 
Any pictures of your Sable?

Congratulations on a successful hunt.

Have another hunt lined up in late June,early July on the Eastern Cape.Not looking forward to the long flight....then again...I should stop being a whinger and concentrate on the critters.

Also,we went to a concession that had the finest of Kudu.I had a choice....the prettiest of Kudu(look so nice as a mount)...or a broken horn old bad tempered bastard.....I`ll leave it to you work out which one I took.

Allow I to tell you a story.As you know,1 PH per client isn`t cheap.I had 3 on the vehicle,1 driving and 2 on the back with me.I of course,was a whiny great girl..."it`s hot....why is the sun shining so?"The driving PH showed me some sympathy and gave me some sunscreen....however...one of the PH`s on the back said "your lucky...if it was one us...we would feed you to the leopards"....I of course was outraged...and then I remembered were I was...and immediately shut my fat whiny mouth.

looking for 300 h & h flanged ammo
Looking for shipping advice. I will be hunting in Limpopo in March, and was wanting to know a general idea of shipping costs to return my mounts to the US when completed. Air or sea? Only plains game hunting.

Good morning 7MAG. I have a NEW, never mounted, Leupold M8-4X Extended Eye Relief scope that I will sell you for $325 shipped to you. I was a Leupold rep for 12 years and this was always our preferred mounting for a lever gun, scout rifle style.

You’ve got an interesting screen name. Will the Thrill provided lots of great times for me as a lifelong Giants fan. Even though I never met him, a number of buddies either duck hunted or shared a dugout with him. He’s a great guy according to those guys. Cool screen name and if that’s your real name, it’s a great one.
