Next Buffalo hunt
I have fallen in love with buffalo hunting. My hunt took me to Limpopo in full bloom, and the hills of the Northern Cape. Being certified addict, I am planning my next hunt. I am thinking I may like to experience a different place. Unfortunately, I cannot bring my rifle into Zimbabwe, so it is off my list for the time being. Tanzania is probably way outside of my budget.
Mozambique, Namibia, back to South Africa, or somewhere else? Where would you go, and what time of year?

CANADA: 2026 Nunavut Expedition
Background
I’ve been trying to get a polar bear hunt accomplished for some time. I talked to several outfitters and some of the local guides that provide the hunts in Nunavut and I also almost booked in the Northwest Territories, near Banks Island. I even bought a polar bear replica mount several years ago at the Wild Sheep Foundation “Sheep Show” in anticipation of the trip. Unfortunately, then COVID got in the way. My son’s Dall’s sheep hunt in the Yukon also got...

ARGENTINA: Free Range Red Stag and Fallow Deer
An idle conversation about hunting Red Stag in Argentina with my neighbor over a few drinks quickly turned into reality on February 28th of this year as we boarded our flight to Buenos Aires out of Salt Lake City, Utah. Living in Wyoming, I am fortunate enough to hunt numerous big game animals each year, but this was to be my first international hunt. A bowhunter by heart, I decided to use rifle for this trip, as I wanted to ensure I would be able to take home a respectable free-range Red...

SOUTH AFRICA: My Buffalo Hunt South Africa 2026
Dear friends
In one month I will travel to Limpopo for my first Buffalo hunt. Being a certified AH addict I thought long and hard about where I wanted to go for this inaugural Buffalo Hunt. My hunting in Africa has been focused on the Eastern Cape region. I have enjoyed great plains games hunts and I felt I wanted to experience a Buffalo hunt.
Why hunt Buffalo. Why indeed. I don’t consider myself a thrill seeker. However, I have to challenge myself or I rapidly lose interest in life. So...

Westerly Richards Steyr .375Ex & Fallow Buck
I have been trying to shoot a few animals with each of my old vintage rifles, use them on hunts not too far from home.
Taken a few nice Fallow Bucks over the years with my Gibbs 1893 Mannlicher Steyr in 6.5x53R, then Gibbs 1903 Mannlicher Schoenauer 6.5x54 (same load as 53R)
This year I took the WR Mannlicher Steyr 1893 in .375Ex 2 1/2in out for a few hunts & managed a representative Buck just on daylight, he was croaking nicely with half a dozen or more does around him.
