BwannaZimbabwe bound tomorrow
24 hours until departure for Zim and 15 days with Tshabezi Safaris (Dudley Rogers). We'll be hunting elephant, buffalo and leopard. I'll get a full report out on my return.

Have a great trip and find some nice animals. With those three I know you will have and exciting time. Where are you going to hunt?

BwannaStarting in Gokwe - there they have hung 4 baits already for the leopard. They have told me there are some good tuskers running around. However, have not foreclosed the option of moving down near Gonarozu for elephant.
I can tell you are not at all excited. Great idea to prebait you need all the help you can get on leopard, I'm still looking for my first one.

bwanamrmGood luck and godspeed! I hope there is a 60 pounder in your future!
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...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

You should be excited. You are going to have a good time! These guys will work their tails off getting you what you want.
Thanks for taking the meds over. I just wish that I was going with you.

If you own a gun and you are not a member of the NRA and other pro 2nd amendment organizations then YOU are part of the problem.
