Mr. Ferry - As others have stated, simply talk to the outfitter about your situation. Jan Dumon (who posts here now) and I had a recent leopard hunting client booked. He himself was diagnosed with cancer, and he kindly asked for a refund - both hunt deposit/commission was refunded. I honestly believe he will rebook with us if his health allows, but refunding him was the right thing to do. The only time when issues like this can get sticky IMO is if it happens really close to the hunt dates, but even then - if its a legit reason like this, most folks will work with you somehow. Good luck!!! | |||

Haha, that made me laugh!! I remember him being about the same way on another forum when this happened. Tom, I wish you and your family the best and I'm sure this will be worked out. Thanks!

Tom, That diagnosis is a game changer in so many ways, some of which you have not yet likely realized. I am going to PM you some contact info if you wish to utilize it. To type everything I'd like to say would just take too long and to say it via phone may convey more meaning. Joyce and I had a similar situation occur last year. We were supposed to hunt his & her Leopards in Mozambique's Niassa Reserve until Joyce's body decided to develop cancer that destroyed one of her vertebrae. The PH, Derek Littleton and booking agent Greg Brownlee, both immediately told us not to worry about the hunt or deposit. We chose to roll that hunt into 2015, thus giving Joyce even more to look forward to on the other side of her battle throughout her treatments. Derek actually, like many on AR, Facebook, and elsewhere became a fervent cheerleader during Joyce's recovery. That Leopard hunt is not far off now and most all of Joyce's strength is back. Bottomline, talk to the outfitter. There is not a living soul that has not been touched by cancer in some way. Stay strong and tell your wife something that Aaron Neilson told mine..... "Put your foot on it's throat and don't let it up, don't ever let it up". You both can do this!! Thoughts and Prayers, Jim & Joyce ______________________ DRSS ______________________ Hunt Reports 2015 His & Her Leopards with Derek Littleton of Luwire Safaris - http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/2971090112 2015 Trophy Bull Elephant with CMS http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/1651069012 DIY Brooks Range Sheep Hunt 2013 - http://forums.accuratereloadin...901038191#9901038191 Zambia June/July 2012 with Andrew Baldry - Royal Kafue http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/7971064771 Zambia Sept 2010- Muchinga Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/4211096141 Namibia Sept 2010 - ARUB Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6781076141 | |||

Tom: Go for it if you feel you can make the hunt in 2016 - having been down that same road but a different street, I reckon our friend will be more receptive to your proposition. | |||

I want to thank Game Frontiers Of Tanzania and Taki Lalji for acting in very sincere and professional manner in this situation. They agreed to postpone the hunt and were very caring. If any of you who are at SCI have a chance drop by and thank them for me. | |||
