| I was 29 when I first hunted pains game with Wayne Wagner in the Makuleke concession of Kruger Park. Six months later I came back to hunt in Zimbabwe. Three years later, I moved to the continent. It got in my blood a bit. |

I was 42 for PG, also with Wayne Wagner Safaris. But I hunted with Ian Brown (sp?), a PH who works for Wayne. |

Plains game x19
Buff and Elephant.
Going back in September plus 1 Heart attack and 3 more stents.
The toughest part is getting others to commit and stick with it. I think it will be fun with others there but I am going anyway

| 39 Plainsgame RSA I wish i had found this site before i booked my trip. I probably would have done something different.
I have walked in the foot prints of the elephant, listened to lion roar and met the buffalo on his turf. I shall never be the same.

| I have guided kids as young as 9 on dangerous game hunts. I do not belive they got a fraction of the experience or the satisfaction that the money paid should have bought.
I do not belive in kids under 12 comming on an african safari other than observers or perhaps to shoot an impala or so |

| Once in Africa a PH told me that Africa is no place for kids and I agree(he wasn`t referring to me,BTW). |

| I was 36. I hunted plains game and my father took a great lion. It was in RSA. Took my son on his first plains game safari 2 years ago at age 11. He shot a collection of antelope, birds and varmints. He asks when we are going back all the time! Hopefully it will be in 2014. |
