How come ?

Well done.

Thank you,

Odin, Alan has upgraded from toilet paper. It is now wet whipes he uses to prohibit the mopane bees from entering the ears

Fantastisk historie. tilnærming mot trofeer som den skadete og deretter den gamle er kanonbra. veldig glad du fikk det du ønsket
The bushbabies was also great

Great report. Those late season elephant hunts can be killers. I lost a lot of weight in six days of chasing them. Loved your story. Thanks so much for sharing.

Thank you, yes it was warm and a lot of walking. But I would have loved to loose weight like you did. The food in camp was far to good, I gained several kilos. Not used to three course dinner of excellent food every evening...

P-A, congratualtions on a wonderful safari. Mr. Shearing is one of the finest gentleman and PH's that I have had the pleasure to hunt with. I am planning on doing it again.

I got the age determination from Buzz some days ago.

"P-A I am sorry I was supposed to tell the age as I got it done a while back and he was 41 which to date I am happy to say is our oldest elephant ( out of over 200 odd aged!) so thats great!"

JudgeG and I met Alan and his wife at the Bulawayo Club after he was gored by a Buff and was going to try another career. Glad to see he's back at it.

I am very glad that Alans wife gave him OK to go back to his occupation as a PH, it would be hard to find a better guide...

Yes, a true gentleman.

P-A, congrats on the ele bull. I am hunting ele bull with Alan this August. My second hunt wiht him. A true gentleman as well as an outstanding PH.

Thanks RickCap, you will have a good time in August for sure

Congrats on a beautiful elephant with beautiful black ivory.

And that is a heck of a nice bushbuck, a real beaut!

Nice hunt and nice report! Congrats!

Fantastic trip to Africa!At my next stay at your home I expect to see that bull stuffed on your living room wall...Congratulations P-A !

Let us not forget the bushbuck. It is a beauty.

As well as the Rock Python of course...
