True Heart of an Africa Safari Hunter...a story told

02 November 2013, 00:26

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,

I want to share with you a touching story from a PM that I have received from one of our participants in the Stu Taylor Benefit.

It is my hope that you too, like (29) others here find it a need to give to this great benefit....

(see below)

Hi Late Bloomer,

For what it is worth, here follow my thoughts and reasons why I finally upped and participated.

I have followed this thread since September.

Last month I went on my third elephant hunt in Zimbabwe, and upon my return again studied the thread and constantly thought about how much Africa has given me.

I have also hunted with a Zim PH three times in a row,...a PH who went 10 rounds with a wounded Buffalo some years ago.

Luckily he survived and was able to get into hunting again.

I really appreciate this PH, in my mind he is one of the best, and I just think how easily it could have been him who needed the support from a forum such as AR. Therefore!

You are welcome to quote this little story.

Kind regards
Jytte

Kindred souls...

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!
- Rudyard Kipling

Life grows grim without senseless indulgence.

Any of us could be on either side of this tragedy if you are honest with yourself.
