I would like to publicly thank several individuals and companies who helped me get my elephant trophies out of Zimbabwe.

Over two years and seven months!

Andy Hunter.
Right after I came home we all learned about the great service he delivered. I asked my outfitter if they would use his company. Negative. In October 2012 I contacted Andy to see if he couls help me get my trophies. Within a few fays he rattled enough chains to finally get some movement.
Thank you Andy Hunter!

Outbound Cargo and TrophyExporters.
Outbound handled all the export permits and checked the contents of the shipment. They discovered a shortage of two elephant panels. Had they not discovered this I would never have gotten what I paid for. Noma from Outbound kept me imformed and answered emails within minutes if I timed it right.
Thank you Outbound!
Thank you Noma!

Spherical Freight, RSA.
Spherical handled the actual shipping
Prompt timely and kept me informed every step of the way.
Thank you Spherical Freight/ Denise Chrighton

Joe Belekis from Coppersmith has handledy trophies since 2004. Pleasure dealing with the same persom so long.
Thank you Joe.

Please do not hesitate to use these great people and companies when shipppinng your trophies home!

Again, Thank you.

Keith Prowell

Good for you Keith, I could tell that it bothered you more than you let on but you were rewarded what you were due with your perseverance. Can't wait to see them.

Congratulations. What a hassle and what a great feeling when it all comes together. I have been on three very successful safaris with Andy and he is a stand up guy by every measure. The hunts were memorable and my Zim trophies always arrived in short order. On a Botswana hunt, my ivory was actually highjacked during shipment but the Calitz team had a security plan and caught up with the culprits. They too did a fantastic job of getting my ivory home in short order. I'll be hunting with Andy in a few weeks. Can't wait!!

Jerry,

Yes we are going to do pedestals, not until I drag them all over to show them off!!

Hyena, I had plan to have it tanned here so it would be soft and just a flat skin. Part of the time delay was my hyena spoiled. So now I have a tanned hyena hide for a full mount so we will have to see. I do have my skull though.

Keith
