JB,

That's a huge area Michel now has! How will he keep control over it? Does he have enough anti-poaching patrols for such a large concession?

As 500grains mentioned, keep yourself active on the flight down. This usually helps my bad back from getting too stiff.

Thanks,

I'll be active during the fly, no doubt. Even healthy persons get their neck stiff just sleeping a couple of hours.
All my physician friends wanted me to have XRayS, Scanner and MRI. I refused for the moment, because it' immoral to waste the assurance money just to have cool holidays.
I a doing a little stretching and gymnastic, but no jogging, no long walking, just a little running.

Poor Michel is a fine guy but not a patient one. I am almost sure he dismissed the administration and paid a fine. Clients are hard to find, nobody can tripled his clientele in 3 weeks. Most of the outfitters here are outfitting for the fun, they don't earn money but do their best to not waste even more.

Bulldog,

With my bow and my 375HH I am going to hunt mainly the Bongo ; as it's in deep jungle I might bump onto the Giant Forest hog and the Sitatunga. If I'll fail I have leopard as a consolation. During extra-time Buff bowhunting and I wouldn't dismiss a big waterbuck or a toothy warthog or bushpig. Only a trophy eland or a lion jumping on my arrow, would be fine.
