Just wondering why you vacuum pack the ammunition?
Have a good one,

Good luck Mike. 8 weeks and starting the long count down. Talked with Vaughan and may get chance at both big cats. Remember lots of pictures.

Your trip sounds awesome! August in Africa just has a nice ring to it!
We all look forward to the photos and the story. Take good notes, yours is the trip we want to take one day!

Take Care and Keep Well.

Boghossian,

With the reloads the boxes have a habit of opening and rattling...so I pack some foam rubber in the top and label the side with official looking labels and when vaccuum packed they look like special factory boxes..

Mike,

Hope you and yours have a great trip like Mark and I did...

I posted our "Report" on Hunting Reports, if you have time to check it out with all your preparations.

The weather should be great for you. Take your time and take it all in...will look forward to your report when you return.

Remember, it goes by quick! Each day I kept saying: "We still have another ___ days to hunt." When that last evening came and we were taking pictures of the great African sunset, I had that sinking feeling in my heart and so did my son. Time to plan the next trip!!

Be safe and shoot straight!

PS: I got my Limpopo Bushbuck on Day 2 after about a 30 minute hunt! What a great experience and memory to carry around forever...best of luck! Check out my report: "My Limpopo Bushbuck".
