Personally, I think these unfounded attacks on Sullivan are wrong. I also think the attacks on Saeed are wrong . The whole thing is rather shocking . | |||

Trax, do you have to put a lot of effort into posting the most asinine of statements? Jeff | |||

Oh boy! The hero worship rear its head up again! This must be a slight step down now, as it only refers to me. A while back, Cal, you posted that none of us can walk in Mark Sullivan's shoes! Talk about someone having his head stuck up his hero's backside!  So now we measure "true men" by how far they worship an utter idiot whose only concern in all his hunting is to show how great he is? At his clients expense? I sure am glad they don't give me the same "respect" as they reserve for such an unprofessional bully. Cal, I know precisely what I am. I am 5'6". I love and enjoy hunting. I don't have to shoot big guns to prove how big I am. Unlike your hero, who looks into the camera holding a 600 NE round and tell the world that it is what he uses because they don't make anything bigger! THAT, my friend, is what I call a little man complex! And of course, purposely wounding buffalo and hippo so he can have his few moments of fame is just the icing on the cake to prove what I have always said. He is nothing but an attention seeking Hollywood wanabe! | |||

Awful behavior on this thread. I cannot imagine how anyone could accept a generous man's dinner invitation, and then, after eating the entire meal, when they find that they are unhappy with the dessert, choose to spit in it. Repugnant. Mike Wilderness is my cathedral, and hunting is my prayer. | |||

I prefer to know more complete facts about the lives of successful or famous people. Others I guess, just prefer to stay mesmorised in the narrow commercial fantasy image that they have been sold....., me, I take that 'image' onboard together with the other aspects of their life from behind the scenes. | |||

if you are stupid enough to believe everything you read is true and unbiased, then W C Fields was right- and the question still stands. have you ever been hunting for anything other than rabbits and birds???

You also mean people naive & stupid enough to believe that the shallow commercial image famous people project, is who they really are as a person?. ..then their fans get angry or objectional when other facts about that famous persons lives are revealed? IF Pondoro Taylor was not a homosexual, then evidently Craptick was a liar. If crapstick is a lair, then that proves my previous statement, - That high profile or famous people, are not necessarily the people they present themselves to be, ....or the kind of person they would like the public to conveniently think they are. Its a fact that people like to maintain some imaginary image of their heroes, Perfect example is Ruark, who was a raging alcoholic on Safari. Ruark clearly indicates in his writings how he regularly/[daily]abused alcohol during the daylight hrs of his extended safaris. Yet his star-stuck blinded fans who claim to know him so well, have said it was not true... obviously they chose to blot out in their minds what was clearly written in his writings, I suppose because it interfered with the delusional and bias, idealic hunter image, some prefer to maintain of him. | |||

Todd, I have invited many of my friends on safari, and I have never asked anything back from them. It really is not much different from providing AR for like minded hunters and shooters from around the world, without having them put up with all sorts of advertising. This goes in the opposite direction of what Mark Sullivan does. He charges his clients, and shoots their animals for them. I suppose the idea of giving something without expecting something back is rather foreign to some individuals. Just look at what happened on the Stu Taylor's thread. So many kind hearted individuals, who do not know Stu, never even met him. But, have gone out of their way to show the better side of humanity. Caring for one of our own community who has met with an untimely accident. These are the individuals who I am proud to call friends. You see, we do have many people in our community who do give something without expecting anything back. | |||

NO dodging at all, I gave an account of some of my hunting experience over the yrs, in a thread concerning the garbage hype-BS about water buffalo hunting. IN fact I posted it even before the silly question you have presented above, was asked. Its evident that you are a little slow of the mark. I am not into continually spoon feeding adults, so if you want to see what i posted, you need to do a simple search. | |||

As I've stated before, Captstick known by the head of the Namibian hunters assn, and took him on a hunt. Says he was legit. As for whether or not Ruark was a drunk or not, is not relevant, he was an excellent writer, and would be a millionair today. Sure made enough money to go hunting for 90 days at a time, in Africa. Actually, I don't know where you saw that he was drunk all the time on his safaris. I have read EVERYTHING he wrote, a number of times, and while he admits to drinking, as I've noted before, he was sharper than the next 1/2 dozen people , when lit. Unlike Trax, who's evidently not a man, and just likes to set back, and slap at his betters. As for Taylor's homosexuality, he stayed out in the boonies, so wasn't bothering anyone, unlike Trax. I personally, would have LOVED to have gone out and spent 6 months roaming around with Taylor. Don't think he'd have bothered me, or tried. My one big regret is that I was in England when he was living back there, and didn't know about him, so I never got to visit him, when there. His homosexuality had nothing to do with his vast knowledge of guns and ammo, and hunting. Ruark's drinking had nothing to do with his ability to write. Why are we even putting up with this little twit, Trax? I think he gets his rocks off hassleing people on here, and that then respond to him.. like me here. Got to stop.. | |||

Who said that Taylor being homosexual was a problem? I have taken people to task on ARPF for attacking & vilifying military servicemen for being homosexual. Strangely enough the homophobic attacks on military personel, came from able bodied hetero-sexuals to cowardly to sign up for the war themselves. and in any case, IF Craptick had never brought it up in his writings,we would not be discussing Taylors homosexuality. Clearly it was important enough to Crapstick, that he felt the need to mention it/publish it to the world, ..why ever so? Now because I mention what he wrote , I am a twit?...what does that then make Crapstick? IN regards to Ruark you need to concentrate better when reading his material, because despite reading all his material, you missed the blatant obvious, as when he clearly stated how much he drank and when he drank it on Safari. | |||
|
| One of Us |
Actually, Taylor himself brough it up, and has a whole book out about his proclivities that way. I don't think you know what your talking about about homos in the military. NO, normal male wants them around them, because they WILL hassle you, and can't be trusted. I would not want to be in the military with them. But they were on our ship, and WOULD pester you, and etc. As noted, NO NORMAL man wants them around him. | |||
|
| One of Us |
Lets see, You would have dearly liked to have spend 6 months in the bush with a known homosexual[Taylor], then turn around and say no normal man would want be around homosexuals in the military? - What differentiates being isolated with a gay PH/poacher from being isolated with gay military personel? - How do you know Taylor would not have hassled you like the navy boys? - What do you mean by gay military personal being 'untrustworthy'? - You say that gay navy personal hassle men, you mean the same way hetero males hassle & pester the women onboard? Of the epidemic rape & sexual harrassment occuring within the military, it is more male on female, than male on male. ....But somehow its the homosexuals you don't trust or that make you feel uncomfortable? IF Pondoro Taylor also had a military-navy career, would you have been happy to spend 6 months in the bush with him, but not 6 months on a ship with him? What makes a homosexual trustworthy in the remote African bush but not on a Navy ship? | |||

How did Capstick get drawn into this? Formerly "Nganga" | |||
|
| One of Us |
Oh thats easy!... I was accused of being asinine for mentioning Pondoro Taylors homosexuality in answer to the alpha male question. Yet as we know, Craptick published such facts about Taylor, and apparently as I have just learnt, Taylor himself published those same intimate personal facts about himself. Clearly both those hunting identities wanted the world to know about it, but If someone on AR mentions the same thing, it is apparently deemed irrelevant or inappropriate. Same with Ruark, he too felt the need to reveal/openly state[or brag?] how much alcohol he drank and what part of the day he drank it, while on extended Safari.....but some Ruark fans don't like it when someone on AR mentions the same thing he told his readers. If people don't like the facts[good or bad] being relayed about their hunting idols, I say tough shit! No one on AR is obligated to support and perpetuate the delusional idealistic image one might hold concerning their favourite writers. | |||

As I have mentioned to you from my many personal experiences, and the many I have spoken with that have hunted with Mark in the past, this is untrue and unfounded. As is your continuous repeating of unfounded content such as Mark Sullivan would never dare go after a wounded buffalo in the thick stuff, Mark goes out of his way to shoots clients animals, there are so many rumors going on in Tanzania about what he does to get all his charges, etc. Saeed, I personally appreciate that you host this site and also that you offer an opportunity and platform to express dissent or divergent views, even where those discussions might conflict with your style of hunting. You provide this opportunity on a variety of topics, including dangerous game hunting up close and the challenges and obvious skills required. These are the very same skills that Mark obviously possesses and has perfected as much as is humanly possible in a life or death confrontation of a charge. You seem desperate to share your message that there is only one way to hunt whenever Mark is concerned and he must be disparaged whenever possible. Your style of hunting dangerous game from a distance also has its challenges and obvious skills required. These are things that I would not feel the need to attack as less than valuable. The things that might be important in your world of hunting dangerous game might be wind speed and direction, cant, inclination, temperature, and range. Is there not ample room for both ideas and perspectives on varied styles of hunting? I have to agree with Larry (Shores) that the continuing unfounded attacks are really poor form and a dividing and very unsettling way to try to make a point.

People get attacked or devalued for all sorts of reasons on AR, and not just for the way MS hunts. right or wrong, He is fair game just like anyone else on AR. I guess thats why he doesn't frequent the AR waterhole....  You can venture to Africa with a bow and be accused of foolishness by some, despite having a very successful hunt,[ i.e; not requiring PH rifle assistance] You can venture to Africa with Bigbore which you essentially cannot shoot for shite, thus needing the PH to do all the real work involved in securing the animal, after you failed to do so, and yet you will still be congratulated by some. | |||

Sean Russell, ever though about making a drama video together with MS? maybe title it: "Facing death and sweating real blood with MS" ...  Is your sweating blood tale while hunting DG, something you tell all the macho alpha males at DSC? Be careful, cause if there are any Navy boys in DSC it might just be a male butchness 'turn on' to them! Well thats what 'tysue' would have the forum believe. | |||

Shawn, How come we don't see in any of his videos where he follows a wounded buffalo in thick bush? How come all the ones he uses to glorify himself are all out in the open? I get 15 and 16 year old kids come shoot here, and I can assure you every single one of them would kill a buffalo charging as Sullivan does in his videos. Anyone who can shoot accurately can do that. The real heroes are the one who face the unplanned for dangers. | |||

Trax…I see you amended your original post adding the comment below:
I will add this to my original reply: Mark does not post regularly on any forums for three reasons: 1). He has little spare time to spend on them and does not monitor them regularly. 2). He has representatives that advise him if there is anything of interest on social media around the world. 3). See item 1. Shawn Shawn Joyce Diizche Safari Adventures P.O.

I guess that is one way to look at it. More of a time management issue I believe.

Trax. Would you please tell me where Ruark said he drank X much a day at a certain time. I have read his stuff a number of times, and never seen that. I don't think you've ever read his writing. Same with Taylor and Capstick. Not sure what the remarks about the DSC about. Have never been to their get together, nor the regular SCIs. IF you were a 1/4 of the person that Ruark and Capstick were, as far as doing things and getting somewhere, you'd be somewhere, other than hiding in Australia or where ever you are, and baiting people on here. I'm kinda sure, you're the type of person I'd find disgusting, up close. Kinda wonder if you aren't the :not an alpha male" in Saeeds posting. | |||

One does not normally die from cirrhosis of the liver by drinking orange juice or coconut water so Ruark's alleged boozing habits might well be true unless he contracted Hepatitis. | |||

Tony, Tony, don't ask relevant questions. You have to bear in mind Mark Sullivan is an "alpha male"1 I just looked it up, and it seems an "alpha male" is a reference to animals, and who is the Big Boss. Just as Mark Sullivan likes to portray himself. You know, that big dog baboon you shot this year in Tanzania, that was an "alpha male"! That useless teen age twit Todd posted the photo of is an "alpha male" to the brainless teenage girls. And so is Mark Sullivan is an "alpha male" to those who wish to be like him. Ordinary people like me and you don't worship any "alpha males". We are just happy the way we are | |||

Trax, We find the operative words in your first sentence - people get "attacked" and "devalued". This is exactly what you do in all your posts to belittle other people like you have done with Michael by calling him "primitive" and a "backyard person" in the tests that he has done. You were called out from your apparent superior position, but you fail to respond everytime. You expect other people to answer your questions, but you never answer when you get asked questions. Why is that? What are we to make of this behaviour? Do you expect us to take you seriously? You have much to say about other people hunting buffalo and you offer advice how to hunt buffalo. We have asked you numerous times to post some pictures of buffalo that you hunted, either african or water buffalo. Yet you fail to respond. Why is that? Most now believe that you have not shot a single buffalo in your life. The one thing we cannot accuse Mark Sullivan of and that is that he is not a TROLL. Please tell us about your hunting experience and the bullets that you use that are so superior to the CEB bullets. Then post pictures for us because nobody on this forum believe you anymore.

Fujotopu: We are well aware that Ruarck died of cirrosis. Trax alleged that he said in his book(s), that he drank a quart of gin a day, or more. I asked him where that was stated. It's sad, when talented people kill themselves like that, Ruark was about 49 if I recall correctly. But, Ruarks drinking, didn't deminish his writing ability. Any time a new book of his came out, it was almost guaranteed to make the best seller list. Something of Value was on the list for over 6 months, at or near the top. I'm not a drinker, either, but not going to try to devalue someones accomplishments because they are. I just doubt Trax has EVER read anything Ruark wrote, or that Capstick wrote either. Obviously, he's never read Taylor's books. | |||

Some of you guys have ABSOLUTELY NO sense of humor whatsoever! All of that bravado by Sullivan is a put on, pure and simple. Thats why is so much fun to pull your chain about him Saeed. You get so offended by the guy. He plays you like a piano, as well as his other detractors. Bad press is better than no press, no? All of the negative things said about the man, all the unproven accusations and unfounded rumors that his detractors eat up and perpetuate has resulted in one thing that cannot be denied. Sullivan is the most talked about, best known PH in the business today, and likely ever! Ask anyone who has been to Africa if they know the Vincents? A few will. Ask about Buzz, Dawson, Broom, etc. A few will. Ask anyone who has been to Africa, or even remotely even entertained the thought of hunting Africa if they know of Sullivan! What do you think the answer will be? It's just damned funny that the "Villain of the Bush" is the most widely known. And the jealousy just eats away at some because he continues to have a full safari schedule and has yet to have a client come forward with anything but positive comments. Must be that ALL of the clients are lacking in some way! Right? Yeah, that has to be it!!  | |||

And still I would never consider Mark Sullivan as my PH if I ever would get the money to go on a DG hunt. | |||
