Some good news from the field re my second last post. My buddy just send me this photo saying it is fixed lol

Closing in.
The moment of truth, not knowing if there will be a worthy opponent in the group.

The type of stuff you come across hunting for a living.
Over the years I came to the conclusion that there is three types of Professional Hunters.
The HUNTER.
The RIFLEMAN
The RIFLEMAN HUNTER.

This trip it was the hunter.
His rifle was just a tool and no more.

The rifle was held together just for incase.
We saw it submerged in the swamp four times.
Not once cleaned
Also never fired.

But I was confident that if he needed to, he would have used it well.

Ghost ring.
My choice when it come to fast close range back up work.
Fast? Ooo it is super fast!
Accurate? Taking a Topi at 260 yards should be proof enough.

“And the rain and the thunder! well, it was a fierce tropical storm, a grand but awful display of the dread powers of Nature; an open-air sermon on man’s impotence and insignificance, preached in the grand old temple of Nature.” Frederick Courteney Selous.

Who do not like monster pigs?
There is just something magical about lots of ivory that stick out.
Another interesting fact, pigs this size is old. Easy 10 to 25 years old.

Maasailand
I was lucky to snap this photo of Maasai boys just leisurely walking past us in the middle of nowhere on there way to who knows were.

Maasai boys is expected to look after the family livestock from the day they can walk. Facing many dangers protecting there livestock and themselves.

Lion, leopard and hyena are everywhere.

Maybe this is what is missing in the rest of the world. The unprotected realities.

Workman's rifle.470 NE by Heym.
They shoot,
They work
And carry well.
I just can not find fault with them.

04/05/2023

Without a care in the world.
Oblivious to the war against his species going on.
Blessed we are to be able to still hunt among these creatures.

30/04/2023

Went and found the oldest bull we could.
And what a beast.
Stalked up to about 40 paces of were he was bedded down.
Took 3 stones in his direction to get his attention and got him jumped to his feet facing us.
He did not look happy with these people in his territory.
Bit the .375 H&H changed his mind.
2 more shots and he was down.

29/04/2023

What great fun we had today.
Jokes, laughter and some failed stalks.
And then we connected with this nice old bull at 40 yards.

28/04/2023

First morning, second sable we saw.
Proof that thinking do better than just doing a cavalry charge.
He was in a horrible spot, with no approach or opertunity for a shot.
So we decided to back up and wait.
Did not take too long for him to make a move and came right to were we were.
One shot at 70 yards with a .375 H&H dropped him on the spot.

27/04/2023

This is the type of sundowner I like.
Time for that G&T Bwona!
Spending time with my friends from

23/04/2023

This is the Zambezi.
This photo explain it all.
One word to describe this photo?

22/04/2023

CZ, one good no trouble working rifle. This one in .375 H&H.
On this trip it took a buffalo with one shot all the way down to oribi.

21/04/2023

What can be better than lying in a tin boat on the Zembezi next to Makoros with a Baobab standing guard. All this while hunting for a 17ft crocodile.

20/04/2023

That is what one want to see on a true wild free range sable.
That secondary growth.
The Kilembero valley in Tanzania is a amazing place.

19/04/2023

PH's blue print.
If I see this I start shaking, like a bird dog in a duckblind.
When you see this on Safari you just know you are about to have a great HUNT!
Non of this just driving, shooting and killing.
But planing.
HUNTING.

18/04/2023

The Blazer double.470 & .500 NE
One thing is for sure, they are accurate.

17/04/2023

No need to reinvent the wheel.
The .375 H&H can do it all!
From point blank to 500 yards
The tiniest to the biggest.
I have witnessed more one shot kills on dangerous game from a .375 H&H, than all the other big bore calibers combined.
But, and a big but....
Nothing beats the feeling going after those that can scratch, bite and stomp with a Big Bore rifle.

15/04/2023

Flat dog & Big dog.
Taking a crocodile with a .577 Double is something not seen on Safari often. And specially if the hunter do it lying prone.

14/04/2023

Just a old pig and even older Holland & Holland double rifle.

13/04/2023

The moment of truth.
Days and hours of hard work.
Mountain after mountain.
Few hunts have the ups and downs and then if successful, the reward than a free-range Eastern Freestate mountain kudu hunt.

12/04/2023

A taxidermist nightmare.
This is what a brute of a leopards scull looks like after a 700gr .550 bullet hit it at one yard.

02/04/2023

No other place on earth can compare to the waterbuck density one get at the Zambezi Delta in Mozambique.
I counted just over 80 bulls, yes just bulls in one herd.

When a top lure gets hit.

Next level Ma**er in .404 Jeffrey.

What make a perfect safari?
ATTENTION TO DETAIL.

22/03/2023

Nothing beats getting a 150 year old girl back in the saddle.
I have taken game out to 200 yards with this load. 1750ft.s for the right barrel and 1680ft.s for the left. (Left barrel is too pitted to push the cast bullets faster.)

20/02/2023

Hunting for eland will take you to some of the most spectacular places on earth.

Kudu hunting in the Eastern Freestate province of South Africa.
Last place one would think of for a good kudu hunt.
But probably one of the best I have seen.
All free range, protected by some good farmers.
