Bud MeadowsSimply awesome report and photos. The gold standard of Hunt Reports on AR.

I knew this was going to be good.
It was good and it is very good.
Congratulations to you and Joyce.
Congratulations on a great hunt.

surefire7Congratulations to you two on the two! What a great safari. From the pictures, you looked indeed at the end of the earth.
We've only hunted four African countries so far, and we will someday try another. We think after reading and seeing this report, Mozambique will probably be it.
But first, we intend to bother Andrew at least a few more times before we move on...

That's easy to do. Complain a lot and say "Joyce said it was nicer than this".

Very true!! We spoke with many different outfitters and PH's about a His & Her Leopard hunt and to their credit most said no way.
Derek remained confident and I see why.
Cheers

Jim, With all your postings on AR lately, I am not sure if I congratulated you guys on your 'His and Hers' or 'Hers and His' (ladies first!).
Well done you guys - excellent story telling and pictures. What an adventure!
Go well.

Aaron NeilsonReally happy for you both! Joyce is perhaps the nicest lady I have ever had the pleasure to hunt with, and it sounds as though she's coming back to Colorado with me again this year too?! Jim sucks really bad at drawing Antelope tags, so he's again the spotter "bitch"!
Both of you have such a great attitude about life, and you enjoy it to its fullest. Hats off to you, great trophies!
Greg, great job man!!!

Really interesting to see that the potless plants caught your eye as well. I thought these were fascinating.
Just knew you two would have a wonderful time, I didn't doubt both of you would get a Leopard.
There is so much more than hunting on a trip like that.

WTG folks! A wonderful and inspirational story! Congratulations on a great hunt. Thank you for sharing your adventure! Well done!

Rhyme of the Sheep Hunter
May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick.
And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too.
May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep.
May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip.

You're welcome Sir. Thank you for the comment. I haven't read this in some time. I remember two things like yesterday. How happy Derek was to see Joyce in person post cancer and Joyce admitting to me she felt her cancer was actually gone now that she completed the last hunt interrupted by that cancer.

Yes, it is good to drag up some of the better reports/posts on AR - I enjoyed re-reading it.
