Putting your money where your mouth is

The caretakers, family, and PH's on our property in South Africa are all ex-military, having done mandatory service before it was abolished, have more guns each than you have fingers and toes, purchase excellent optics and night vision, love to shoot and hunt like we do, usually from high koppes, horseback, or custom jeep, they drink a lot, and are very very bored at night, in a remote situation.

You would be great entertainment for them.

I imagine they would say they know lots of places to bury people, as per the old days.

That is, if they don't simple want to pay the "species fee" to the authorities for a poacher. Your life wouldn't be worth a 17 Inch TV and carton of smokes.

You have never been, and don't understand the culture there if you say want to poach on "the dark continent".

The locals will kill you for being competition if you are in parkland, or the owners will kill you, or just hurt you bad, if you are on a reserve or game farm.

Depending on the species fee of course.

You would be a rogue poacher? You better be good then.

I am guessing you would be a blood stain on red earth, then hyena and wild dog food for 24 hours.

Can they get DNA from Hyena poo?

Oooooo, ain't they tough though!
A good illustration of why I'd just as soon not bother hunting around the world. By sticking to remote areas in North America, one can avoid contact with this type of scary individual. In North America, just like anywhere else, it doesn't really take anything special or exotic to have a great hunt. A Mauser actioned 338 in any decent stock (I like wood but others will prefer synthetics) with steel Weaver bases and two good scopes in Leupold QRW rings. This is for if I fall and break one.
If I felt I had to have two rifles, one in 6.5 Something and the other in 375 Something would make a decent choice. Same basic rifle. Regards, Bill.
