Most Dangerous Safari???
      17/11/07 12:09 AM

Was speaking recently with a group of some outdoorsy folks who are non hunters(2 young professional men and a woman[drug reps]). Two made jest of hunting on safari saying -What is the real challenge when you have a "high powered gun"( no mention of the word rifle) and you walk up and shoot those animals?There seems to be little danger to the hunter, right?? I responded with apparent little effect on their perspective. I even invited them to log onto this website!

I told them that nothing hunting is guaranteed and that hunting was a skill to develop.If you stalk/shoot poorly you can even get killed!! I even offered to let the most obnoxious fellow shoot a real Elephant gun(my 500NE Double)but CRAP he suspected something and backed out!

I couldn't really say that my African PG hunting this summer was dangerous, but said that getting charged by any DG or specifically bull Elephant hunting was probably the most dangerous type of Safari, where you could be charged by Ele at any time. Told them to search U tube for clips.Neither fellow seem impressed.

You hunters have those"high powered guns" was their retort.

Guess the fellow thinks we should be using spears and such--

What do forum members think the most dangerous type of Safari would be for us hunter types that have all those "high powered guns"??
