    Hey cool nice bear.
    Nothing is like climbing a mountain, and then feeling like you are at the top of the world.

    That's my Boy, he's put the time in and finally it's paid off. CONGRATULATIONS. He phoned me as soon as he had service, excited as could be, came to my work, that's why I couldn't go, we skinned and cleaned it and off to the butcher, proud I was. It was his insistence that I got my pal and core, we've been out together many times, to bad I couldn't be there for this, his first! But now that you drive a FORD, gotta loose the dirtymax handle, LOL, next is my first, soon I hope.

    Safari sling is awesome ! Not constantly pulling it back on your shoulder etc. Easy to raise it up for a shot quick . One and only “downfall” is when walking through the bush the barrel goes first so a risk of debris going in . But I constantly just walk with my thumb on the end of the barrel to stop debris and steady the gun. I’ll never go back to a normal sling .
