HOW COOL IS THIS?? A Rhino Darting experience in South Africa on the Auction at the Georgia Chapter Sportsman Banquet on April 30. Don’t let this one get away!

I bought one of these a few years back, Tam Safaris was the donor, when we got to Tam I had my wife “hunt” the rhino. It was much more than I thought it would be. They stalked to within about 15 yards before she shots over the rhinos back . Understandably nervous, but made a good shot on the next stalk.

I did one of these back in 2006. The "hunt" itself wasn't much in my case but the experience was pretty cool. Once I shot it with the dart, I got to join the team placing ropes on the legs, getting it off its feet, and helping the Vet take blood samples and inject vaccines, then waking it up. In short, it was a great overall experience.

This is for a really good cause . This chapter does a lot with youth hunts, new hunters and veterans .

Good to know, Larry. I may have to bid on this.

Just so happens there is a really nice youth/adult hunt donated by a very generous fellow in Florida that frequently posts on AR. I believe I currently have the high bid but I hope it goes much higher, it should . Really a good opportunity for some lucky youngster.
