I need a recommendations for a non-Mark Sullivan African Hunting DVD.

I need to order for Christmas.

Already have Boddington on Buffalo and Leopard.
Thanks

Buzz's video "Hunting the African Elephant" is excellent. Also Kevin Robertson just came out with a "Perfect Shot" DVD. Haven't seen it yet but just ordered it. Hope it is good.

Check out safaipress.com for the DVD listings. Ask to be on their mailing list.

Yes, Buzz's video on Ele hunting is excellent. I just ordered the Kevin Robertson dvd and am anxous to see it. Also, "Boddington on Buffalo" is good.

I have the Safari Press brochure and have read about the various offerings. I am trying to get a feel for which one or two stand out...
Thanks

If you get Buzz's video I can add my authograph for only five bucks.

"Death in Masailand" by Big Bore Productions. On DVD and filmed in high Def.

Another vote for Buzz's elephant video.

"In the Blood" is one that you can watch with a non-hunter that may actually get them to understand hunting a bit. It is also very well done.

Jack Brittingham's "Quest for Tanzanian Big Game".

I recommend "Boddington on Buffalo" and "Boddington on Leopard". Both are excellent.

I liked the Boddington vids as well

I like all of the videos from Jack Brittingham. I have found them all entertaining. Boddington is also good.

www.outdoorvisions.com and pick from any of the multitude.

Do any of the videos mentioned above come with english subtitles? I'm hearing impaired...Thanks in advance...

You might also try

"Jaws of Simba"-- Lion attack that features a REAL, WILD, WOUNDED Lion.

"With Deadly Intent"-- Great Dangerous game action.

I still vote for the set of Capstick films for a fully rounded view.

Did you even read the post?

Jarrod:

I thought I did. But sure didn't. How about "Boddington on Buffalo" or "Boddington on Leopard"? Good ones.

Thanx

Hunting the African Elephant, by Buzz C is a must if you ever want to go ele hunting. Also, Boddington on Leopard is also well done.

Smart alick

Another vote for Buzz's elephant video!

For an older video, try Robert Ruark's "On Safari - Hunting in the Golden Age of Africa w/ Robert Ruark" - features Selby, a 110lb ele, a charging rino and a 49" buf.

Where can you get that video?

THanks for the suggestions, you all are doing great. Seems I am not the only one that watches videos instead of MTV or pro basketball (yuck, ever since Larry Bird retired) or the cheesy-commercial filled-'Yee hah, Bubba, I gotta a bigun' " type deer hunts on the outdoor channel.

Did you even read the post? The post asks you to recommend an African DVD. The post does not ask you to critize responses. Try your hand at answering the post.

Outdoor Visions has the best selection but many of their DVD's are severely overpriced. For instance, I have all of Jack Brittingham's DVD's, but I bought them from JackBrittingham.com where they are either $15.95 or $21.95. At Outdoor Visions, they are all $39.95 so don't buy them from Outdoor Visions.

Excellent Videos you can find under www.huntersvideo.dk

Thanks everyone, my wife bought the Brittingham dvd's for me. I just finished the Tanzania dvd and it is very well done. I am ready to go!!!
She bought another one as well - Death in Masailand . Will put it in later...

Merry Christmas!!!

Does anyone here know where I can get the Ruark movie on DVD?? I've looked at several sites...no luck so far.

Merr Christmas, my wonderful and understanding wife bought me Kevin Robertson's CD "The Perfect Shot' for Christmas. It is an exceeding accurate rendition of the book, but now it is in 3D and if at all possible even more informative than the book. If you are going to Africa for the 1st time or the 20th time this is worth a look. The only minor negative are barely disguised commercials, but they take very little time and are almost well done. Good shooting and in 5 months I WILL be back in Africa. Merry Christmas, a Happy,Safe,and Prosperous New Year. Jerry Hoover

Another vote for the Buzz video. I have watched it three times now and learn something new every time.

Also, a while back I bought the Capstick Hunting Collection. Includes six DVDs of Capstick hunting different animals. Most are so so. I watched the Hunting the African Elephant one and it was actually pretty good. What was neat was that it featured the bush people and showed things like them making poison for arrows out of a caterpillar larvae, cooking an ostrich egg in a hole in the ground and things like not. Much more entertaining than most of the others in the series.
