I just checked them out...they look great. I like the way their site is set up. Straightforward. Also...they have a non-trophy package for us old farts that just want to do some culling and not take stuff home......  Give them a look Jason. They do have three of the animals I want, Eland, Leopard and Duiker!

Wild boar, a 7x57, and Jack Daniels. Almost as good as Africa!

There we go!
No Poobs, just the same old Gerber I've always used.

Funny thing about that: it works.

Hang on, I have a boar that's trying to make his way out of the scrub.

Never could get the big fellow out in the clear for a shot. BIL's pig was odd, though. He was a boar, about 135 pounds or so. I took the backstraps off then turned him over to start on the hams. I noticed that his groin looked swollen, and when I cut along the line inside his left rear leg, there was a hole in the abdomen. His innards he leaked into has abdomen. Needless to say, it was all totally infected. This pig had peritonitis and didn't even know it!
Oddly, he had no external injuries. At first I thought he was gutshot, but there were no external wounds. The only thing I can figure is that he was injured in a fight with another boar. Anyone have any other ideas?

Decide anything yet? Where'd you two finally land?

I can't get there in time....
besides, your credibility factor would plummet if you were seen with a consummate heathen.
