Good points gentlemen;

Medication; even when I was in the NWT guiding I brought enough stuff the other guides called me Dr Feelgood. Rarely needed any of it but when did it was very valuable. On previous trips to Africa Namibia 2009 Eastern Cape RSA 2015 I had a lot of drugs/meds. Left it all behind unused was glad to have it none the less.

Pirate the listen to the PH is good advice, I have also had a lot of fun listening to the tracker. My short time guiding give a rating system;
-don't shoot it
-only shoot it if you really need to
-good mature animal shoot if you want
-shoot it
-shoot it or I will

Other advice I have had from friends experienced in Africa which I have taken; minimal taxidermy skulls and horns some hides lots and lots of pictures and more money into trophy fees.


I hope to take my "learnings" into my next trip.

All the best
