Caprivi is wilderness area. At the confluence of the Zambezi, Kwando and the Okavango. Wonderful place to experience. | |||

NitroX, Is that MikeH from Pennsylvania, USA? He looks familiar to me.. We met at Cabelas right after it opened... Mike | |||

Love the curls. As a kooky aside, one like that'd look great on a heavily modified Harley-Davidson-- as handlebars, of course.  ______________________ Hunting: I'd kill to participate. | |||

Mike, yes it is, and I would wager that his Ruger is chambered in .416 Rigby! Mike Wilderness is my cathedral, and hunting is my prayer. | |||

I'm pretty certain that Vaughan Fulton's Classic Safaris was his outfitter and that Dries Alberts was his PH. Nice buf by the way. Congratulations to Mike. "...Africa.

I met Mike in Windhoek at the airport on our way back from our hunts. He walked up and introduced himself when he saw the Accurate Reloading patch on my shirt. We got to swap stories and pictures about our hunts in the lounge there and again at Gatwick.

Isn't this the same guy that was thrown off the Forum? Anyone remember why? Speaking of that, why did 500 Grains get banned?

500grains was not banned. He started a thread here today -- scroll down. Mike left for a bit but I believe re-registered. Not sure of his current status. ------------------------------- Some Pictures from Namibia Some Pictures from Zimbabwe An Elephant Story | |||

Thank you for being concerned. I was deprived of posting privileges on the AR political forum for week or two, apparently because I posted too many non-flattering but IMO humorous photoshops of Obama. You can peruse my photobucket account to get a feel for the material if you like:http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v641/500grains/?actio...¤t=27xnk37.jpg | |||

Some AR guys met Mike in Namibia so they might like to see some more.  Mike's Burchell Zebra  Another of the buffalo  "Beast" troubles ...  The Chobe  Near camp  Perfect ending to the day. | |||

I can't imagine You didn't drink a couple of drinks and perhaps smoke some cigars?  I wonder why Mike didn't post any longer? Perhaps will he post a comprehensive report, news from the Caprivi are always captiving. Mike please move Your....body.
