Me- four African safaris - 275 lb, bad knees. Elephant, 3 Cape Buf, lots of other stuff.

Johan Calitz Safaris - First trip in 1995 the shower was a 5-gallon bucket that had to be hand-filled. In a tent. First day shot a Lechwe long before my shadow got there from home. Hadn't even sighted in the rifle that I, not the tracker, carried on every step of every hunt. Once everyone got to know each other the PHs never lifted their rifles to their shoulders except on the elephant.

My arsenal on the four hunts included Winchester .300 Mag; Remington .416; Searcy .577; Ruger 458 Lott (in my estimation the best big game cartridge); Ruger #1 in .458 Lott. Next hunt in 211 will be with a .375 Ruger #1 - I'll be 65 and slowin' down.

I knew what I was doing, got to know Johan and didn't play the fool. Damn but the knees hurt.

He ain't cheap, but for the money, the adventure was excellent. Botswana on 2,000 sq. km of concession - zero fences.

It's all in who you hunt with and how you hunt.

I'm more than happy to talk to you and play show and tell with photos.
