africa with TOOTABI SAFARIS - 08/09/15 07:44 PM

I made my first trip to Africa in June and it was simply breathtaking.... hunting everyday for 13 days straight was a dream I was able to realize. I took quite a few animals. impala, black springbuck, common springbuck, Kudu, gemsbock, several warthogs, waterbuck, red hartebeest, wildebeest, and Blesbok. Amazing PH, Lammie, and his tracker Atti.... and 5 star accommodations at the main lodge. Amazing hospitality by the Buchner family. Firt rate people and first rate outfitter. I cant recommend highly enough www.tootabi.com some pics:

Congratulations on your trophies. Now you've got the Africa bug. I am a fellow victim of the disease. Perhaps not the best time to catch it, but I'm sure you're like me and we'll both "make a plan" to get back, someway, somehow.

Congratulations. Now for the real fun of getting them back to the US. Took me ten months to get mine back and a total of $4,500 for a dozen trophies plus a few skulls and horns that we found while out hiking. Biggest delay for me was getting the permit for the common reedbuck. Seems that they have something their called Africa Time, and nothing will get done any sooner!!! smile

I warned all FB friends to unfriend me if they did not like hunting.... most comments were pretty tame....

Great trophies. Hope you can get them home OK. . The airlines are becoming a bit of a problem.
