Mike Burke is having one of those safaris that we all dream about. If this luck continues with the Zim Save portion of his safari he will be walking on air. I'm not going to spoil it for him but stay tuned for the blow by blow and pix.

Mike,

Mokore has to be a happy camp with the luck you and Dr. Fraser are having. Huge buff, leopard, nyala, 2 sable. The scotch should be flowing freely.

Big Congrats to you all including the Duckworth boys. They are the best!

Just 49 inches? Eeker

Seriously, look forward to seeing your hunt report and pix!

Shoot straight!

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.

It's probably got soft bosses.

Great to know there are still 49-inch buffalo to be hunted. That one is just outstanding -- and with the double no less.
