Absolutely fantastic family safari in true South African style.

Wonderful family trip! The fact that is was college grad gifts makes it even better! Congratulations!

Great stuff!

What a great trip!!!

Y'all definitely went all out!!

Congratulations on two weeks with the most important people in your life - it looks like everybody enjoyed themselves.

Generational memories!

Congrats on what looks like a very rewarding trip.

Now if Angola would just come around Frank.. Would be icing on the cake!

Nice photos

not all that nice had to cut them down to get em to load now have the helo video will post it soon you will not believe it the way these guys fly

You're a lucky man. Family trips are the best.

Looks like you all had a fantastic time. I'll bet the folks at the airport thought they were in for a small invasion when they saw all the guns and ammo!

Thanks for sharing. What a blast you all have had. Whatta gun battery too. I think I will take a 8x57 next time. Thanks for inspiration.

“When a client shows up in camp with a .375 Holland & Holland, you immediately know that you have a practical and able chap as a customer, a wise and knowledgeable hunter who will listen to reason. When a client shows up in camp with a .458 Win Mag, you know that most likely the only experience the hunter has had is reading the pages of Outdoor Life magazine, probably 30-year-old editions. When a client shows up in camp with a Remington or a Weatherby in any caliber, you know the hunter’s experience probably does not extend past the clerk at the gun counter. When a client shows up with a double rifle, you know you have an elitist for a customer, much like the guy coming down the charter boat dock at the marina carrying a fly rod, and you approach him with caution. When a client shows up with a .416 Rigby, you know you have someone who has studied and respects the rich history and traditions of the sport of dangerous-game hunting. And when a client shows up in camp with a .404 Jeffery, you know this is someone who cares enough about said history and traditions to go to the immense trouble of building and loading a gun and cartridge long sacrificed to the gods of mass production and commercialism. You take a liking to this guy immediately.”

AS WE WERE IN BOAR COUNTRY-- DID NOT DARE BRING AN ENGLISH CALIBER WOULD NOT BE PROPER --

What a great trip! I am envious!

My wife and son have been to Africa multiple times with me and my daughter does not let me forget that :-)

The family trip is absolutely in my future but I need to wait till my grandson is a bit older.

Congratulations on an safari of EPIC proportions. Just to get that many people, guns and rounds of ammunition there is an accomplishment in itself! Just wonderful to have your family there together.

good for you. great hunt.

Very nice Frank, Madam got an awesome kudu. Memories each and everyone there will never forget, fantastic.

So nice to see the whole family enjoying the hunt.

Thank you for sharing with us.

I wish the photos were a bit bigger.

I size our photos to 1800 pixels on the long side, and they show great details.

Very nice. Awesome to see the family involved.

Thats my next mission....oh after a Sitatunga and a couple more Buff....and a Leopard....

Thanks for the post.
