Re: fair chase CHARTER

Yup, shooting from the vehicle is a real pain in the ass, and I really dislike it, but even that occasionally has to happen in the real world. Get a client who either can't walk for some reason or for example, get a shot opportunity on the last hour of the last day on an animal that simply can't be seen without the elevation of the vehicle and all you can do is let the client make up his own mind. - Thankfully, I usually seem to attract clients who like to do it the same way I do...... which is on foot.

I had a client a few years ago who impressed the hell out of me. He was 72 years old, diabetic, had dodgy knees and a heart condition and he still hunted the way I like to do it. We didn't have any 'death marches' but did have some fairly long tabs...... he took 2 Buff, a good Lion, a decent hippo, a #4 in Rowland Ward EA Eland and a whole pile of other PG..... and he didn't complain once. He's ill now and probably won't hunt Africa again, but I speak to him as often as I can, and now consider him a good friend.

BTW, Where in Surrey?
