Is the shooting gallery at bass pro not good enough? Certainly save some money.
Speaking of presidents. If you haven't seen the video on YouTube of Bryson DeChamboue and Trump attempting to break 50, you're missing out. Trump has the most awkward swing you've ever seen but he can sue hit it straight and his putting is no slouch either.
Trump has a pretty athletic swing for an obese elderly man. That putting stoke though....woof.
Kill a baboon if you go. Those bastards are actually pretty challenging to hit unlike a water buck. And they are as destructive as feral hogs.
I’m taking my daughter on Safari in a few years as a graduation gift. The whole family is going. I decided that South Africa was the place to go. Not having to worry about malaria and having first world health care was the deciding factor for me.
I used the outfit Limcroma safaris in South Africa back in 2008. It’s on the boarder with Botswana. They were great. I wouldn’t bother bringing your own guns. Also, unless you’re going after the big 5, a 30-06 does the job just fine.
if you want to actually meat them in person, or dozens of other safari outfits, you should attend the Dallas Safari clubs convention. It’s a cool trade show to attend regardless if your planning a safari.

i’ve done chobe in botswana as a day trip from vic falls. then coupled it with a week in cape town. got the big 5 plus a river cruise. you could do the same further north with kenya/tanzania plus egypt. unless you’re camping then 3 days tops of a safari and you’re ready for a new adventure
Giraffes have a heck of a neck roast on them. Marinate heavily with Dales and then grill to medium rare. Delicious!
Had a few in the San Antoine bar where Teddy & his Rough Riders planned their Cuban assault. Still in its old rustic form. Didn't Teddy take a bullet during a campaign rally but kept on speaking? Like a small book in his pocket saved his life?
His son Ted JR. served in North Africa, Sicily and Sardinia. He was also one of only two Generals on the beach on D Day. He went in with the first wave and won the CMH.
