I apologize

Dear Mr. Grant Taylor ,

Thanks for updating us on the hunt here offered almost one year ago ! and now again.
I am glad that, at least , some clarifications are being made , but it is rather strange for me that only when me and freischuetz came on stage , you decided to come here with your explanation .

I also find very strange that you are offering these hunts to recover costs when you do not need or are obliged to pay the license fees on your game park areas , so why do you say you wanted to recover your actual costs ?

Another thing that i find strange is the fact that your friend agent said that these non exportable elephants were to be sold all around and not only in the USA where we all know that ivory is not possible from Moz.

Also , i understood that you had clients booking these kind of hunts ? did you talk to them about what they bought from you ? Sure you did , so the next question is why only now you come here with , i am sorry to say , such terrible «explanations» and crucifying your FRIEND AGENT ?

And to finalize , i would like to ask AR moderator NOT to remove this thread because fellow AR hunters need to know the facts presented here and judge for themselves with whom shall we hunt or book hunts.

Thank you.

Thank you Grant I never doubted you in your sincerity.I must add the outfitters I use is above board and does not do illegal hunts.before I start working with any outfitter I contact a lot of clients to get the bigger picture.I ask them to rate the outfitters it gives me peace of mind.If there is a negative I will contact the outfitter and sort it out with them.
You all know that nobody is perfect and sometimes people try to create doubt.If the doubt makes me worry i will walk away.I would not like any of my clients and future clients to have any problems during any hunt.When they hunting I am in contact with them all the time.

Dear Mr. Blignaut ,

Do you mind to tell us the reason for that ?
This thread started 08.03.2013 and to finnish with eventual doubts for fellow hunters it is important to know from the starter of this thread why is this hunt withdrawn and closed after one year of marketing and expressions like the one used " you snooze you lose" ?
Or are you just following your mothers advice " my mother taught us if you cant say positive things rather keep quiet then ".

An apology for incorrect advertisement ?

Anyhow , all the best.

Indi,
Do you have some personal vendetta here? Something against either party? Just curious as you can't seem to let this go or are you just going for 3 pages? If the later is the case, this should help you get there.

Vendetta against what and whom ? Is this forum supposed to inform correctly its readers or what ?
An hunting consultant posts an offer here during one year , he tries to sell what he cannot sell , someone comes here to try and elucidate fellow hunters and you call it vendetta ???
He was man enough to post and arguing what he posted and argued and now you say i am in personal vendetta ?
An apology , not to me , but to many hunters that did not know before what they were eventualy thinking to buy is the minimum this hunting agent should do .

And thanks for helping to get to 3 pages....but maybe you are one of the few that like to be wrongly informed how to spend your money hum?

I found this very interesting

Since the hunting consultant did not come here to explain why this hunt is cancelled and withdrawn , and as a last post from my side , i would like to say that this offer was cancelled and withdrawn because in Mozambique there is not the figure of non exportable elephant.
So this offer was not correctly done.
The outfitter explained that , instead of shoting the elephant himself , because he has paid for the license fee ! , rather sell it to a very reduced price and because of that and only because of that he will not ALLOW the hunter to take the ivory home being USA ,that was not possible to export anyway , but also for all other countries as per skinafrika comments.

In this case , and to elucidate Buzz Charlton and Phillipe du Plessis , the tusks will remain with the OUTFITTER.

Hope i had helped to clarify a lot of issues that were not correct at all from the beggining ( almost one year ago when this thread started ).

See you all in another thread !
