Fantastic hunt and a very good bull. Great to see Twiga, Dominic, Hamilton and all the crew.

Its amazing how some times things happen all at once.

Pierr'e is excellent at the impromtu management of the moment.

Congratulations to Butch, Pierr'e, Ray and of course Mr. Morrison.


ALLEN W. JOHNSON - DRSS

Into my heart on air that kills
From yon far country blows:
What are those blue remembered hills,
What spires, what farms are those?
That is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went
And cannot come again.

A. E. Housman

Another good example of how both of the rifles you take to Africa should be suitable for all game.
AND, how having both of the doubles, at least one scoped is a great plan.

Great report and super buff. I, also, look forward to other pictures!


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.
