Good luck on the hunt! Wish I was coming along, it's only been a few months since I was last in Africa, but I'm homesick already. When you get bored with life, start hunting dangerous game with a handgun. | |||

Best of luck, but you're the guy that doesn't need it. I left a huge black maned lion there one day. Hope you get him.

Best wishes Mike to you and Cherie for a safe, challenging and rewarding safari. The guns are ready and they look good so you realize now that there can be no excuses when you bump into Mr Simba. We can't wait to see the photos and read the accounts of the adventure. I'm doing my part to help...I put the hard drive/card reader in the mail to you today...don't want to take any chances losing photos  Safe journeys and may the safari exceed your dreams, Paul, Cindy and Brandon "Diligentia - Vis - Celeritas" NRA Benefactor Member Member DRSS | |||

I'm excited for you Mike. I just hope you didn't use up all your luck on that great elephant you took on your last hunt with Pierre. "There are worse memorials to a life well-lived than a pair of elephant tusks." Robert Ruark | |||

Good luck! Brett DRSS Life Member SCI Life Member NRA Life Member WSF Rhyme of the Sheep Hunter May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick. And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too. May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep. May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip. -Seth Peterson | |||

Buenos suerte Mike!!! Good hunting... On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died. If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...

Mike I know you and the Mrs. will enjoy yourselves greatly. May the game be where you hunt for it, the challenges most memorable, the excitement nearly overwhelming, the shooting very close. Go Man GO! Jack OH GOD! {Seriously, we need the help.} | |||

Mike Just did a double take (no pun intended). Are you truly going to take bolt trash on such a classic safari? Again, best of luck and Godspeed. I look forward to the stories! Don Deo Vindice, Don Sons of Confederate Veterans Black Horse Camp #780 | |||
