Bagged a lion and a beautiful wife. Not a bad combo!

talentrec,

How more perfect could that safari be????? And I am green with envy over the civet cat. I want one badly and missed the only one I had a chance at.

Congrats on everything!

Congrats on a great bunch of trophies and for snagging such a beautiful hunting partner.You are indeed a lucky man!


We seldom get to choose
But I've seen them go both ways
And I would rather go out in a blaze of glory
Than to slowly rot away!

Wow... congrats all around!


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Life grows grim without senseless indulgence.

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

Congratulations on everything. Lucky man to get a woman to go on a hunt and wedding at the same time!

Amazing civet by the way. Must go 30 lbs at least.

I remember Riverside ranch fondly. Great destination, my family enjoyed it as well.

What a unique hunt. Will you be making a dvd/ tv show from your hunt?

Cheers

I'm a little late to this thread, so am I missing something? Where is the report and what happened to Talentrec's follow-on posts?

I tried the link to hunt-productions.com but there doesn't appear to be a hunt report with lion, croc, and a wife. Has someone else had misgivings and decided to remove their hunt report?
