A Leopard Kill Celebration

SpringA Leopard Kill Celebration
I've been playing with some of the video that I brought back from Tanzania last week. I've finally figured out how I can get some of it online. The highlight of our trip this year was probably the totally unexpected leopard kill celebration my son experienced. I had heard of such events before, but it never crossed my mind that we might see it in our situation.
If you'd like to see a slightly edited version of the event (to make it small enough for the sight hosting it),
click here. As a dad watching his son, I was very happy that day...

Big MoNew to the forum. That was great! I have been bitten by the Safari bug and planning my first Safari for hopefully next year. I have read this forum for a month now and find it very helpful. Ordered a 375H&H and recieved it last week, a Winchester M-70. Can't wait to experience Africa the way you guys have. I'm from Clermont Ga. by the way , where is Bronwood?
Congratulations on your sucessful Safari, I know that had to be a special time with your son

SpringThanks, Big Mo. Bronwood is in SW GA, just outside of Albany.

Big MoI went to Southwestern in Americus. Know quite a few people in Allbenny, I really want to shoot a big Buffalo , Its all I think about lately. I would like to get some advice from from you if possible. I have to show land in the Macon - Dooley co. area next week and want to add a 416 rigby or remmington are there any gun shops that stock African calibers down south? Or is a 375 enough for a Buff?

onefunzr2Congratulations! Super video.
I was stationed at NAS Albenny '68 to '71. Drag raced at the NHRA track. There wasn't much else to do in them days.
