My wife and i and my 15 year old son are heading out to the Selous in just over 2 weeks. This will be our first trip to africa.

for those of you from the NW or left coast who have hunted in Tanzania, do all trophies ship to NY or can you have them shipped to Seattle/portland area? Or is first Port of entry almost always NY?

I know that the trophies wont ship til the end of the season, but I'm supose to put the shipping agents name on the trophy tags.

I was planning on using copersmith out of Portland.

any tips?

I use "Always at your Service" out of Portland:


ALWAYS AT YOUR SERVICE INC
6629 NE 82ND AVE., SUITE #104
PORTLAND, OR 97220 (503) 287-9577

I don't have thier e-mail address here at work, but I can get for you if you'd like.

They went out of their way to help us with a shipment that had a baboon skull in it. It was hung up by every three letter agency. Took about a week to straighten out. Only charged about 150.00 for it all.
