stagmanStagman's 1st Post
This is officially my first post on AR. I'm pleased to find so many familiar names from the HA forum here. I can't believe it's taken me this long to discover where all my fellow Africa buffs (pun intended) have gone.
My background: Read WAY too much Capstick, Hemingway, Roosevelt and Ruark as a child. Hunted in RSA twice so far, had some dreams come true and subsequently written a few magazine articles about my adventures. Hopefully I will be trodding in either RSA or Zambia about this time next year.
At any rate, I look forward to sharing Africa with y'all from the keyboard!

Welcome!
You'll find a bunch of HA refugees here. It get's a bit heated at times. But the heat keeps it a little less "swampy".

stagmanThanks to all for the warm welcome!
I will try to refrain from 45/70 talk as well as my affinity for hunting cape buffalo with a .300 win mag.

I'm also fairly new here and have been really impressed with the vast range of knowledge held by members. I've learned a lot in a short time from a bunch of very nice people.
CHEERS!
