We all love Craig and his Fulson/Dankliff crew from Dallas. What would you like to see next in the Boddington On .... series? He hunts everywhere -what do you want to see?

Question:
What do you think will be or want to see as the next installment of "Boddington on....."

Choices:
Boddington on Plains Game
Boddington on Spiral Horned Antelope
Boddington on Ethiopia
Boddington on CAR and Cameroon
Boddington on Sheep of the World
Boddington on Argentina

 

Boddington on the African Lion.

Boddington on Humans!

It is rumored that Craig is now in training and is going to turn his immense energies and talents (and newly ripped physique) towards the ultimate hunting ground: the UFC!

Stay tuned !

"Boddington on Asia", with the numerous countries open to hunting and the vast variety of game, I think it would make a great dvd/book.

Boddington on AR

When I was at SCI/Reno a couple of years ago, Ludo Wurfbain at Safari Press told me he planned to get out of the safari & hunting publishing business and get into the vegan lifestyle publishing business.

So I suggested 'Boddington on Carrots'.

How about Boddington on Uganda?
There is a dearth of current information on hunting and fishing there.

My guess would be 'Boddington on Lions'.

Spiral Horned Antelope, to go with his awesome, limited edition book that I'm scraping $$$ together to afford.

Besides, he told me once that lions are the only animal he has hunted that scare him.

Boddington on lion. I asked him about it at Reno and he said that was very likely as they had been compiling video footage for some time now. Count me in! I'll buy the first one!

Brett

Plains Game (which could included some specialties like LDE, Bongo and Mtn nyala)

or

Boddington on Central Asia (urials, argalis, markhor, ibex and gazelles) of the 'stans', Turkey and Mongolia!!

He could prabably do one on these species alone.

Brett

For sure yes, I guess it depends on how long it would be, I guess the same could be said for sheep/ibex etc by region and type

Afternoon Boys
Both Boddington On Lion and Bod. On Plainsgame are in the pipeline although we have not decided on which will come first. We have been compiling lion footage as fast as possible, but it is some big job to get kill footage on a large number of lion when compared to other species. But we are getting there. We could do "a DVD" tomorrow on lion, but we want it to have the same style content and footage as the leopard movie. As you can guess, we could, and will do a plains game DVD, as we full well realize the vast majority of modern safaris are plains game only hunts . But, will they sell as those featuring dangerous game? I'm putting the question out there, and I would welcome any and all feedback from the AR team. Speaking of Uganda, Craig will be there filming in June and we are hoping for some good TV shows from the trip. We are all over the continent this year with film crews in Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Zambia,Botswana, South Africa, Namibia,Mozambique, CAR, and Namibia on the schedule so far. I dont know with our schedule if you will ever see Boddington on Asia, not because he is not hunting there, but the video b-roll necessary for that type of project would take years to collect. Africa is our game guys, and thats what we do best. Please let us know your thoughts on the next Boddington on subject, and THANKS for the idea Dogcat !

Howzabout an entire series of Bod on individual African countries?

Now that would be REALLY cool!

I would like to see Steve's idea but with lions. Every African country with a lion quota.


Dutch

Lion would be great! The Boddington on Leopard was phenominal!

Lion.

Another vote for Lion.

Peter

One for lion and one for a sheep film. I hope the old Bod man can stay in shape long enough to do a really cool sheep film. He ain't no spring so he'd better get on with it.

At the NRA convention in Louisville Craig told me he had been talking about doing a Boddington on Bears in Alaska. This was a year and a half ago. Whatever he does it's top notch.

Boddington on Europe or

Trophys of the World, Grizzly in Alaska, Red in Scotland, Roe in Europe etc ..

Africa has been done.

LION HANDS DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brett

I am hoping for "Boddington on Wild Sheep" (or even a series of sheep vids...."Boddington on Bighorns", "Boddington on Thinhorns", "Boddington on Argalis", etc).

I'd love to do a Boddington'esque video on NA wild sheep. I haven't seen anything of the like out there, and there hasn't been much written on what to do to be a successful sheep hunter in a long time. You could cover conditioning, gear for backpacking, nutrition, pack dogs, horse packing, habits, habitat, how to glass, guns, loads, shooting in mountainous terrain, judging sheep, etc, etc.

One on mule deer hunting would also rock. There is a lot more info out there on backcountry mule deer hunting (Eastman, Long, Prothero, Darner, Hanes, etc), but I've never seen a good quality video that covers it all.

Cheers
Chris

I know this is the African section, but if you're a sheep hunter, you're a sheep hunter!!!!
I'm with Canuck.

I will hopfully be psting a report on Uganda soon in the process of arranging to hunt the right now.

I voted Boddington on Argentina, since there its much fine game there , and with outfitters like juan Pozzi here it would be fun to see the Argentine hunting areas and hunt tactics on film fro mthere, plus they have lots of various hunting areas from mountain to jungle and the grat Pampas-

+1 for Lion, the Buffalo projects had a great impact in terms of educating hunters about what really constitutes a trophy and what we need to do to conserve the quality for generations to come.

Lion hunting needs the same at the moment - the future of Lion hunting in Africa has never been in a more precarious predicament as it is now. And trophy hunting of Lions is probably the only hope for the survival of lions in many of Africa's wilderness areas. Without that value on their heads we will one day only see them in the big fenced game parks and some of the more exclusive well managed wilderness areas that are few and far between in central and east africa.

It.s going to be Boddington On Lion boys ! should be a really great project as we have been filming lion hunts like crazy . November release.

Boddington on Brunettes?

can't wait!

Dave - That's absolutely fantastic news! What Manyathelo said above simply couldn't be said any better. The timing is right for a good DVD on lion hunting, and I know Craig will do a great job on explaining the conservation benefits hunting has on the future of the lion population. I know you guys will do your usual fantastic job, and I'm really looking forward to its release. Good job!

Great news. I'm looking forward to getting one.

I personally woudn't mind seeing a Boddington on Plains Game DVD. With plains game being the vast majority of safaris, additionaly, even DG hunts will have a small amount of PG involved. I will hunt Leopard and Buff in the future, so I have an interest in those DVD's but lions are probably out of my reach.

Regardless, keep up the great work!

Glad to hear that you guys are on board for PROJECT LION ! It has taken a looong time behind the cameras to get the stuff we have. Some of our video savvy buddies are making some real good footage available to us as well which will add a great deal to the quality of the film.
And BODDINGTON ON PLAINS GAME is "probably' next in the pipeline.

Could it be "Boddington on his next book"?

I will definitely buy the lion DVD when it comes out. I own the others and love them. Please do a plainsgame DVD as well. I would very much like to see that, especially if it can include hunts in a number of different habitats. As a rule, I really don't much care for hunting shows or DVD's, but the "Boddington" series are quite good.

Sounds good.

Hopefully it will compare favorably to the first BoB.
