Nice Ele for less than 25....
I just can't believe the deals that are showing up this year. I almost wish I would have waited and gone this summer.
I just saw a Buff, hippo and croc all in for 14,000. in Zambia.
The deals are getting so that I can't check my computer anymore.
come on...

Well done...I have been waiting for your report.
Nice lizard. I wish I would have seen something that size.
Too bad about the Sitatunga. At least you got to see some.
I think that SCI should have a catagory for unicorns....I mean anybody can shoot one with two horns but it takes time...
We were going to be hunting out of Windhoek for the last half of the trip. And our flights from this side of the pond worked very easy flying in to windhoek. Direct from Franfurt.
Our choice for this ranch were either Maun or Windhoek for pickup. And it was only another 2 hours in the...
The weather in Botswana was cool in the mornings, with a couple days having light frost. But by 10:30 we were usually in just a shirt and jeans.
I think the daytime highs were between 70 and 85 degrees roughly. Not too hot...just right.
July 30 – August 1
These days were spent looking for Croc and buffalo sign, talking with various villages and talking rides in numerous mokoros. I am finally getting the hang of these tippy little canoes. Some smaller crocs were found but nothing that interested us.
August 2
Today we...

Another quiet day spent looking for the little guys and anything else that might temp us. Erika finally got her chance at a Steinbok.

And I thought that I was the only one that had their hunting account in Mutuals......
Oh well the rates are low for a loan. No sense take a big hit on that money now.
I almost wish I would have waited to book a hunt this year...almost.
Ya we are jumping in with a big hunt to start with. But we have been planning/saving this trip for over 5 years now. We will be driving a old car for at least a few more years but I think that it is a small price to pay for what we are going to get in return.
I think there will be a few...
After 7 years of waiting my wife was finally drawn for a Bull Moose tag in some of the farmland east of our farm.
As you can see from the pictures I think it was worth the wait.
The bull measured 51" and was shot in a Canola field.
We were able to drive the truck right up to it and had it...
Well I have been lurking here for a while, I figure it is time to start talking.
Our (Wife & I) first trip over the the pond is finally coming to a reality. We are set to leave on July 13 for a trip to Namibia for a little hunting. We have 11 days of PG set and then we switch areas and move...
As the title says, when should you start to take your kids hunting?
We had our first kid this past July and decided that you are never too young to go hunting. And besides if the baby couldn't go hunting this year that meant that the wife couldn't go hunting this year:( Not a option.
So we...
