Thought I'd better delete this, since it's now in the past tense.

Jeff,
Tell him hi for Irene and I. Hopefully his back is restored.

Like you Jeff, I can highly recommend this hunt.

I will do that, Alan. Our best to you and Irene.

Talking to an African PH would have qualified you as an "expert" on safari hunting on most other message boards.

LOL..........don't want to be an expert, just want to hunt Africa, if only once.

M70Nut,

With only three trips to the dark continent, I am but a rank amatuer in African hunting. Furthermore, you no doubt have already been over run with people sending you safari company names by now. However, here is one more/my favorite PH's contact informaton:

email: big5game@worldon line.co.za
Web site: www.hannesswanepoelsafaris.co.za

The web site is under construction and please forgive the grainy photos until it is complete. If you contact Hannes (owner) please tell him I said hello, or not. Whatever.
Incidently, he sets up an Africa "show and tell" two days, each winter at Mt View Sports Store, across the street from Sagaya City Market, about the 3800 Block of Old Seward Hwy, Anchorage if you wish to meet him in person some time. He is a very "straight arrow" and even if you never get around to hunting in Africa, Hannes is a wealth of big game hunting information, no hot air, just solid practical advice based on his and his many peers substantial experience.

Best of luck in all things.
Ard.
