You have to be told??? Whats required on both sides of that coin is common decency, manors like your mama should have taught you and the PH or guides...

That said Ive seen more screw ups in US hunting camps than in Africa by a long shot, but the ones in Africa I have seen were real dandys!

You have to expect some hickups so for goodness sake know the difference, many do not.

I sent two clients to Africa, and they came home all upset, and mad as hell at me..their explanation was they like to shoot an animal as many times as possible before it dies, so they start by gut shooting then shoot the legs our from under them and when the PH questioned what they were doing and asked and they told him it was their hunt, they paid the bill and that's the way they always hunted and the PH sent them home. This was my most extreme case in all those years of booking..They never booked with me again!! shocker nor would I book them. I checked around and some folks verified this and they found it disgusting..

A mate of mine has just told me he's shagging his girlfriend and her twin. I said "How can you tell them apart?" He said "Her brother's got a moustache!"
