SOUTH AFRICA: My First African Safari With Bos en Dal Safaris June 8 To 14 2018

Enjoyed reading this and fantastic animals! I had to take a screenshot of that kudu to use as a measuring stick for my first safari.
 
Wow Mark.....................you did whack em and stack em...................................I like your fotos, and it is nice to include some fotos of general ambience, meals etc. I like the Hartebeest, the blessie, and the foto of Puff Daddy....................well done.....................FWB
 
Mark,
Any chance you're a retired SGM? I ran into a SGM Biggerstaff on one of my deployments many years ago.

Glad you had a great hunt with Gerrit. Kudu has a deep curl. Eland is special also!

Thanks for the report.
 
Very Nice hunt, great trophies! Looks like they run a good operation and feed you some nice meals. Thanks for sharing.
 
Well done, congrats. You took some nice critters. Thanks for posting a report and pictures.
 
Well I'm six months late to the party, but wow! Excellent trophies...that is the Kudu of my dreams!!!

I always wanted to do the photo down the curl of the horn like that when I shot my first kudu, and then when it finally happened this past July, I completely forgot in all the excitement!

Congrats on a wonderful hunt!
 
Thanks for your report. Looks like you are an excellent shot! What type of practice shooting do you do? Do you spend a lot of time on the range? Congratulations on a great hunt!
 
Looked through this again and agree .......you got a nice kudu
 
Mark, somehow I missed this report. All I can say is WOW!!!!!! The kudu is a stud! Congrats on a fantastic trip! Do you have any pictures of the lodge???

I spend alot of time at the range. I hunt hogs at night using thermal with farmers here and have shot 1000s of rounds off sticks.

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!
