I dressed and headed into the breakfast...

    African Safari.......The Hunt

    I’ll not bore any of you with the details of the 42 or so hours to get there. Between 4 different flights and layovers in airports it was quite madding to say the least so here goes with the fun part. We landed in Port Elizabeth to be met by 6 or so of the PH’s who would be hunting with us...

    Heading For Africa

    All the animals there will get western real quick if they can move. We had one warthog make it to its den so they pilled sticks and rocks on top of it and came back the next morning. They found the warthog right at the entrance dead. You have to figure that all of these animals are prey...

    Heading For Africa

    The accommodations are 5 star all the way across. The only downfall is their watter supply that comes out of a bore hole or a well to us it has some of the highest metal content that I have ever seen. Everyone uses bottled water or collects rain water for drinking and cooking.

    Heading For Africa

    I took my own rifle a 340 Weatherby. Getting through Dallas was a joke. The airline didn't even know their own regulations.. But it wasn't bad through Johannesburg in South Africa , just their red tape.

    Hunting / Sportsman Organizations

    They didn't outbid RMEF but were handed the contract with the explanation that the wildlife board didn't think that the RMEF could handle a event of that size. I guess that the RMEF events didn't demonstrate that they could handle it. But the RMEF also has quite a bit of mud on their face with...
