well last year at the blade show, the two south african handle material dealers invited my dad and I to go hunting with them in africa, all we to pay for are flights and trophy fees, but unfortunently, I had to make a choice this year of getting my first car, or africa, so the trip will have to be about this time next year, I talked to the guy about using my bow, and he was very interested in trad archery, this is not one of those grand safaris with a team of trakers and a five star lodge, we will stay in tents, I want a warthog and an impala with a bow, and a springbok with a rifle, well wish me luck!

Good luck, Ian. Looking forward to seeing you post your stories of the trip when you get back...

the wait will be the hardest part!!!!!!!!!!!!!
