Hi all, I am safely back from my first Safari Hunt with my son. We hunted with NB Safaris - South Africa, and I have attached a file to this thread describing some of our my experience, events and pictures. I hope the administrator will allow this on the site as this was truly our event for life - that need to be done again at some point in time ;)

What a great hunting story, Tom! I really love your style of writing; it puts me right in the story and I can see and hear and feel Africa through your storytelling.
Absolutely awesome trophies, those are some Monsters!

Tom, that was a very good report on unforgettable hunt. I'll bet that you and your son will be heading back sooner than you think. Thanks for sharing your hunt with us.

You bet, already in the planning. Just received my new double, Merkel .470 NE

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
Remember I will be at the ISE show in Denver Colorado for 8-12 January, and after the show I will be available for meetings anywhere in the USA I will traveling around to meet with old and new clients, let me know and we will set up a meeting!
Beautiful Aardwolf for our Spanish client and good friend Alberto

Hi PaulB,
I have a Ballard Arms Model 1885 chambered for .333 Jeffery Flanged. Do you have any idea where I can get ammo for this?

I am new to this forum so I am sorry if I am doing something wrong!
Thank You!
