Successful Hunt
Just a quick note to let you know I'm back from Africa after a successful hunt with Buzz Charlton.

Thanks to all who offered advice and support re my going while still using crutches.

I'll do a hunt report in a couple of weeks but I'm going "out bush" (in Oz) this afternoon, so no Internet.

Quick comments:
- Carla and Charmain who work in the office are charming and very helpful.
- Buzz is a good bloke, smart and very knowledgeable,
- Ryan the Appie is also a really good guy and very skilled,
- Harare and Zim in general, seemed very safe to me, less worrying than Los Angeles or parts of Sydney,
- tracking ele on crutches for 2 1/2 hours at a time is tiring,
- I got a 25lb PAC bull in the traditional way, by tracking it from a field.

Thanks again for all your advice,
