To hunt Hippo or not?

Thank you sir.
 
RIGHT ON JOHNNY!!!!!
 
Ok everyone, my decision is with the majority of the forum. Buffalo and hippo it stays.
I'll bet it was that charging video [emoji12] . It certainly got me excited about hunting them!
 
Good call Johnny!
 
I just wanted to thank everyone for their opinions, insight , input and jokes. This was a fun thread even though at times I was more confused than when I started. Want to wish everyone a safe and productive season. I look forward to the photos and reports from members.
 
They are going to find some relatively obscure midget hippo

And the antis will say very soon that because there are not 50,000 Pygmy Hippo in the wild that they are endangered. Therefore, all hippo will need to be put on the up listing track and taken out of available animals to hunt.

Thank you @spike.t for providing the needed picture evidence!

Get your hippo now folks!

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

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
