I do have a bull/tuskless hunt planned for 2010 with my step-son. He has a severe illness and hope all things will work out for this to happen..

BigMax---wish you nothing but the best---its been great writing pm back and forth with you --one can feel the excitment in your messages...you will have a great time..

Peter,--your first time too Africa will not be your last---once that bug sets in its aweful difficult to find a cure--not that you'd want too..

Mike--your buffalo hunt should be awesome--I hear/read the Caprivi is a great place...

Hoppdoc...great topic...and I am sure you will be heading back as well..all those things seem to sort themselves out sooner or later..good luck..

While not a big game hunt of the magnitude discussed above--couple of us are heading out in 10 days for opening of antelope archery season here..can't believe where the year has gone..wow..fall is around the corner...

Good luck to everyone...hope it turns out better than anticipated..
