I read a fair amount. Often check used book stores for random hunting related books. This one was a good find!

I didn’t go to the skinning shed as I sometimes do to see how a bullet performs as they remove the organs. Organs are kept here to sell to the butchery for food. So I didn’t get to see what the bullet actually struck. But we did get it on film which I understand will be in my possession around...

An early start as we are hunting buffalo today. Fried eggs, the good bacon, toast juice and the regular accompaniment. Everyone here runs on coffee except me, and I like the orange juice. Took my .375 wby with 300gr A Frames, leupold 1-6 with an illuminated dot in the center of the...

5 a.m. in the east cape and I am wide awake. I struggle with jet lag every trip. I was glad to have my second rifle. Any good ph should have a loaner/renter in camp to borrow just in case your ammo gets lost in transit or your stock gets broken or catastrophic scope failure or whatever. The...

First morning of hunting in South Africa. I’m in the eastern cape with Game4Africa Safaris. I’ve hunted here before several times and was lured back again with a cape buffalo package which included a kudu and an impala and a nicely discounted rate. I added some animals to that original...

I think blkram nailed it-I was figuring young male in search of his own territory-thanks for the pictures, very nice

That is a no-brainer purchase! Congratulations on that find and best of luck in the field and marsh moving forward!

I would suggest you get in any website that sells multiple brands and check out the buyer reviews. Some makes/models have thousands of reviews and might be of some confusion/help for you. I’ve used stealth cam and moultrie largely for price point, password protection, infrared and battery...

I listened to a ducks unlimited podcast where they were using similar tech to count and track breeding pairs, broods etc. Things that are hidden and impossible to see that are visible to the cameras. Interesting to see the varied uses

Check out 4 stable sticks. Rudolph also has the same thing and I got their version. After using them in South Africa, I bought myself a pair and it is all I use now

Take a couple pairs of shorts so you can change after the morning hunt. So you always have clean dry clothes on. Monkey butt powder will also be your friend. I leave in a week for the east cape. Will post the hunt when I get back-

I drew antelope in Wyoming-I think I’ll take one of the .284 family, just not sure which one! Have fun with the scouting process, your hunting area sounds like fun

A wonderful antelope cartridge-I look forward to some pix and a story!

Have fun-Be safe!

I’ve had very good success with the 150 ablr BUT it’s in a 7mm-08 at 2750 fps using rl-17, r-p brass and fed 215 m primers. This is the load that is the best and most consistent for me. I’ve tinkered with this load to death-different powders. Seating depths, Nickel cases, nosler brass etc The...

I also have an apple phone and cannot upload pictures-tried just now without success

Burglar breaks into your house. Do you shoot him with the big bullet or the smaller version- Both will be accurate for the task at hand and the end result will be the same. So bigger or smaller. . .

Send the scope to the manufacturer and let them know it won’t hold zero any longer. Even if this isn’t the problem it might have a very happy solution. . . Any chance the throat is getting burned out and the barrel needs replaced?

Your phone will be great for most of your pictures. Talk to your ph and see if you can spend a day at a photography park-elephants and giraffes and all the rest stand and stare while you take thousands of pictures. It’s a great add on to a hunting safari and your new camera will get to stretch...

In utah the “peacekeepers” shot and killed a bystander at the king rally. Some guy smuggled an ak into the crowd and when he pulled it out the peacekeeper shot and missed and killed the bystander. . .
