Atticusonly a few more hours
After much creative routing to use FF miles on United and Delta, my wife and I are heading back to Namibia Monday. We are hunting with Dirk and Rita Rohrmann at their new operation; Omalanga Safaris.
This will be my wife's first time hunting and she is looking to take a bigger Kudu and Oryx than I took last time! Nothing like a little friendly competition. This will be my first try at Dangerous Game, a nice Leopard. We will also be spending a few days in Etosha National Park.
All our stuff is laid out and ready to be packed. We have been shooting a few times a week and should be ready on Monday.
I'd also like to Thank everyone here on AR. The information I have received and things I've learned here have made my African Hunting possible!
See you in a few weeks!

mrfuddI'm heading out the door in about 15 minutes-supposed to arrive at WDH Monday morning. I'm hunting with Kowas Adventure Safaris. I hunted there in 06. My wife and I loved the place.

Use Enough GunBest of luck to you and your wife on your Safari. I do hope that she shoots a couple of animals bigger than yours! By the way, from the looks of things and the posts, we're sure going to have a lot of hunting reports to read and pictures to see!!

cchunterHope you all have a great time in Africa!
I'm leaving monday morning to spend 45 days with Charl and Frederik from Infinito Safaris, most of the time we will have Swedish groups in camp.
Myself I will focus on bowhunting and brought a different gun that I think I can have some fun with a combination of 7x57R and 20 gauge,brand Merkel.
