My wife is headed back to SA in March. I MAY be going with her. I'm still not sure yet though. We have talked about having her father tag along instead of me on this trip. He has been an avid hunter his entire life and has never been on safari. I think it would be a great chance for them to do a once in a lifetime hunt together and get some quality time in before he reaches the point in life where something like this would be out of the question for him. If for some reason he cant/wont go, I'm sure I'll tag along and chase some plains game with her
We're also considering ducks in Peru in either May or June but havent booked anything yet.. we'd like to combine it with a hiking vacation at Machu Picchu.
Im sure we'll do all the other "normal" hunts in NA that we typically do as well.. elk in colorado, whitetail in either TN or TX, hogs in TX, as well as a few upland bird and waterfowl hunts in TX as well... Typically we do at least 1 "exotic" TX hunt every year and have talked about adding turkey to the menu in 2018 also.. If we do end up chasing an exotic this year I'm thinking we'll either go after free range nilgai or I'd really like to give chasing a free range aoudad a try..
