Anyone have contact info for this ZIM PH.

Also Gary Koen who worked with him.

Thanks!

I think Rusty is in jail in Zimbabwe. I believe he has been there for two years ... unless someone gave me bad info ... it has happened before.

This is second hand info ...

More information/confirmation in this thread.

257kid,
There are a few words about Rusty posted just a couple days ago, look for his last name...I TRUELY enjoyed my hunt (only 1) with him and his crew. He is in prison. I believe his brother-in-law is his contact now in ZIM. Contact Bill Scheg, Genesee Valley Taxidermy and Shooting Supply, he's on the WEB.....for more info...

Met one of Rusty's PH'S a couple year's ago, a nice chap, they called him Spike, dose anyone know his name?

Spike is Rusty's nephew, contact "Wild" Bill Scheg for more info...I was there in '95...HOPE to get back one day....

Spike (Walter)Classen PH no 66 - A darn good hunter and a hard man. Louis La More used to write books about people like him

Thank's Ganyana and Swamprat.
Good and hard hunter ,reminds me of another PH I've had the fotune to meet,a Mike Taylor.

Ganyan,

You nailed Spike right on the head... he is also a lot of fun in a casino with a belly full of adult beverage.

Ask him about the effects of a "dying rabbit" call for lion.

"You nailed Spike right on the head... he is also a lot of fun in a casino with a belly full of adult beverage."

He didn't become so soft as to leave it standing,surely?

Ganyana,

No No. Spike, Charlie Campbell, Chris & myself were dragged out less than vertical by my lovely bride.

We recovered well enough to really put on a show in the lobby of the hotel at about 4 am.

I have hunted with Spike, Charlie & Chris last year and I highly recommend them to anyone. I had hunted with Spike in 2002 as well. You can contact Contact Bill Scheg, Genesee Valley Taxidermy and Shooting Supply if you need more information about booking with them.

I have some funny pictures of Charlie from January when I took him to the shooting range. He was outside in 4 degree weather with about 12-14" of snow shooting at clay pigions.

All of the guys know how to have a good time and it makes hunting with them truely enjoyable. I am planning to do it again next year.

Picture of Spike and myself with a non-typical impala we got in the Shangani camp.

That is terrible...

Does anyone have any idea when he may get out.

Rusty got 15 years- less five.. served three so seven years to go.

Giraffe Hunter,

I don't push it much around here, but I also book for them.

In fact I just spoke to Charlie briefly yesterday, they still have plenty of PG opportunity for the last part of this year, but buff are about off the table for this year, unless some one cancells.

I found a link to there wedsite. I am not sure if it is up to date or not.

Ibexebi, glad to hear that you spoke to Charlie I hope he is doing well. I try to hunt with them every other year, that would place my next hunt 2006.
