First Post, First Safari. - 02/24/17
My first safari started at a beer fest that I went to back in June. There was a silent auction for an RZA hunt and a minimum $1000 bid. My buddy and I talked about it for a few minutes and I wrote my name in... for the minimum of course.
I was the only one who bid, so I won by default.
I booked my trip for April 1-10 with my quarry being kudu, gemsbuck, zebra, impala, and blesbuck. Though if I see a trophy bushbuck or waterbuck I'm probably going to shoot.
I'm bringing my mountain rifle. A Tikka T3 lite in 300WM with some hand loaded Nosler ETIPs over H1000.
A safari had always been on my bucket list, but only being 27, I was planning on getting some more Western, CONUS hunts in first. But... opportunities like this don't come often.
I have everything lined up as of now... does anyone have any last minute advice?
