Anyone heard of a ph named Richie Swemer?
Hunting experiences with him as PH? Thanks for any and all feedback.

I spent a week with him in the Omay. It was his last hunt before he got his license (he had to accompany one final elephant hunt. Brent Hein was the PH.

This was three years ago, in March, I believe.

Richard's dad was a PH (died in a hunting accident) and his mother remarried another PH, if I remember correctly.

I found him to be competent, very polite and good with the social part of safari.

We took a good p.a.c. bull on the hunt, too.

When I posted the picture below, I thought that Richard was in the below picture, but maybe not.

Thanks Ernest. Looks like he may now be my PH in a couple of weeks.

Are you hunting Lemco. I think he's done dozens of safaris there. I have a picture at the office and I'll try to get it to you on Tuesday.

My son and I hunted with Richie at Lemco in July 2007. After 5 safaris, I consider him one of the top two PH's I have hunted with. He is young but full of energy and fun to be around. I'm so confident in him, I rebooked with him in July 08. It is my understanding he pretty much hunts Lemco?

Bwana... As I said, Richie is a good all around guy on a hunt. Take some M&M peanuts, Richie will walk on fire for this American treat!
