Leaving for Zim shortly, for a Buff hunt with Nixon D in Malapati, and probably Sengwa 1. We have quite a group...Rick (Pagosawingnut)from Colorado, Jess (Monkeyhunter) from the Phillipines, Gustav (Goose) from Dallas, my 73 year-old guide Bob from Alaska, and myself. Should be fun...back on the 3rd.

BIEBS: Did you bring some Travelers Checks for Nixon? I understand he got burned by an AR member who accused Nixon of stealing his checks.

Lucky1Biebs,
I just got back today from Zim. Did a 7 day buf hunt with Simon and took a nice one on the seoncd day. The hunting was hard in the Malapati but saw many cape buffalo. Saw a lot of other game including impala, waterbuck, nyala, bushbuck, crocs, wildebeest, giraffe, kudu, warthog, duiker, steenbuck and baboon. Saw sign of lion and leopard but no sitings. Had a great time! Good luck!

Have a good safe hunt Jon!!!
