I'm off to the KZN on Sunday evening to hunt nyala and bushbuck along with anything else that looks good. I'm hunting with Ian Blakeway of Venture South Outfitting on his 80,000 acre free range concession. I have a little packing left to do tomorrow but I'm basically ready to go.
I'm flying out of LAX through London and Johannesburg to Durban, RSA arriving there on Tuesday at 1 PM. I bringing the left handed, Winchester model 70 in 375 H&H using the 235 grain CEB Raptor ER bullets at 3,000 fps.

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Good luck and waiting to hear how those Raptors work out!

Just getting to pack your guns and gear getting ready to leave means there's already a significant level of vacuum going on.

It's starting out to be a great trip!
I'm in London right now. On the flight from Los Angeles I had the entire three seat row to myself so I got to sleep most of the way here.
See ya
