Frank Stathos - California
Frank spent 30 days with me, starting in Mozambique for Hippo and Croc. Thanks to Karel Maartens for the great hunt, we took two great animals and Frank caught a lovely Tiger Fish. Then in Zimbabwe, it’s never easy relying on somebody else to organise a hunt but thanks to our Bulawayo based outfitter this was a total disaster, my apol-
ogies Frank. Back in S.A where I was back in control and we were able to take a great Buffalo, a Lion, a Lioness, a Sable, a Lechwe and a darted Rhino. All secured by some excellent shooting. Well done Frank.

Gary & Amy Gibbons - Phoenix, Arizona
Gary, Amy, their two sons Ryan and larry and his fiancee Melissa joined us once again on a photographic and hunt combination. Everyone had a great time and saw some spectacular country and game. Ryan once again took some great photos. Then it was on to the hunting and Gary has wanted a Buffalo and an Eland for a long time and he fulfilled both those dreams on this hunt. Some great shooting on both Gary and Larry’s part secured them some great trophies. Well done guys and great to spend some time
with you once again.
Impressive shooting put this Buffalo down in Limpopo S.A

Dave & Jo-nell Strickler - Texas
Dave and Jo-nell joined us on their first hunt. A great couple and good fun. Dave took several great animals including this magnificant bossed Buffalo. While we were hunting this bull Jo-nell had an encounter with a dangerous animal herself, a cobra in camp. After all the excitment the staff killed the intruder, that’s Africa for you. Great shot on your
Buffalo Dave.

Dieter Voss - Canada
Dieter took his Elephant on the second day of the hunt, after several hours of tracking amongst cows and bulls we finally approached eleven different bulls in a dry stream.Singling out a bull from four others at 30 meters. Initially the bull spun towards us and then as he turned Dieter took him. It only sunk in that evening that Dieter had his much
sought after Elephant (which is normally the case). Dieter also took a lion with me 17 years ago.
Dieter took this bull with excellent shooting, up close and personal. Shashi River, Botswana

I think this is the fourth time I’ve hunted with Gary. Taking all his game with his Handgun, this time two beautiful Buffalo, one of 39 inches and the other over 40 inches, he also took a Lioness. Great fun once again. Thanks again to Johnny Demos for all his help and to his lovely wife Eurika for the wonderful food.

What great shots and great fun for Taylor taking a high scoring Blesbuck as well as a Grey Duiker. Jenna took a Black Wilderbeest with one shot after a long wait and a lot of patience.

Heath & Mattie McCall - Florida
Heath and Mattie, what a lovely couple. The last time I hunted with Heath, he was too young for a girlfriend. Heath and Carson both shot well at the time and nothing has changed except for the fact that he is now a married man who still knows how to shoot. This time round he took a fantastic Lion on foot up close and personal. Sorry I was not
there to spend more time together but I’m looking forward to fishing with you in Florida.

Wayne and Colleen it was fantastic having you back after all these years. I hope Colleen, Mattie and Alex enjoyed Botswana and the Victoria Falls with Johnny. Wayne it was great hunting with you again. I had forgotten what a sense of humour you have and how there is never a dull moment. Look forward to taking an Elephant with you in the future
and of course some fishing in Florida.
