Well I just got an e-mail from my PH in the Congo telling me all my capes spoiled................they have offered to replace them OR I can go back and rehunt all the species for free, and hopefully add a sitatunga and buff. What should I do? What would you guys do?..............DDDUUUHHHH

I'm looking at airline schedules as I type this, couple quick arrangements and I'm off, back to the Congo for another adventure. :rockOn::rockOn::cool:

Douglas,

even not for free pretty sure you already to go there again ... just for the trip on the road from the baumiers ...

maybe as a cargo bring your salt and bring the capes with you ... wont cost that much more ....

I ve been there for the capes for some customers and I really suffer with you but now a new plan ...
 
Do you get to hunt for trophies again or just for capes for each species that spoiled? What happens if you shoot a bigger trophy the second time around? In that case you will still be short one cape for the first trophy!
OH, the agony of the situation!
 
Hey Douglas, we are all love'n this thread, it's amusing and unexpected twists and turns ... most of all.

Who said that? ... ;)

The Karma Bank, it is yielding good interest eh?.
That PH of yours, he's quite the gentleman.

Take lots of pics for us, ... maybe this next lion will be even closer !!.
 
Going back for a re-hunt is first class customer service. I'd be gone just as soon as I could clear customs.

Unfortunately, things like capes spoiling happen. Shrug it off and carry on !

Lion is fine it's just the Congo animals, the 3 duikers and the bongo............So what do you guys think life mount cape for the bongo this time??

hawk-i......you describe my pain exactly..........my understanding is a complete do over and if I get bigger, well good for me and if I don't I can take the good cape and biggest horns.......might bring all the horns and Euro them....2 blue duiker capes are no problem, they are virtually unlimited quota, the yellow back I would like a bigger one anyway and the Peters duiker well, whatever. I would upgrade the Peters duiker to a sitatunga in a heart beat.
 
Doug, have you ever considered doing something a bit crazy for this hunt? Like having an 8 bore built on a Hopkins & Allen underhammer action and use patched round balls to collect the big game of Congo... :)
