Well it sure called to me! And I was not disappointed. Would go back in a heartbeat; nyala, eland, waterbuck are beckoning...
Glad you had a great trip 1/2 Slam.

"If you want to hunt beasts you don't see every day,
You have to go places quite out-of-the-way.
You have to go places no others can get to,
You have to get cold and you have to get wet, too."
- Dr. Seuss
Well I now understand those that say Africa gets in your blood.
doesnt matter what kind of bullet it is, as long as it weighs 180 grains its DEADLY, even on ass shots....Todbartell-2009
You've definitely got to experience it to "get it".
I seldom talk about it here at home (ie. with other hunters here at home)....folks tend to just give you blank stares. Their eyes will light up and they'll want to know every detail of the 22" rainbow you caught on the weekend, but mention the 55" kudu you shot and its a real conversation killer.

awsome pics!!! Me and a buddy are going next spring to RSA....after seeing your pics I want to go now!!!
I spent six weeks in RSA 16 years ago before I was hunting. Would love to get back there on a different safari!
Hunt, Enjoy, Repeat
It sounds like you guy's had a great time, I got back from SA on Tuesday night, also did the Joburg Heathrow thing but landed in Vancouver rather than Seattle.
Be careful those spider bites are not tick bites - tick bite fever is an ugly thing if not taken care of properly.
I went hunting on two separate game farms, both with a bow and a rifle and had a fantastic trip - if anyone is interested feel free to send me a PM and I can certainly make a few recommendations if needed
.
nice pictures looks unreal, i have to ask - how much should i be saving?
Kudu post some pictures!
