It's all y'alls fault!

I had no intention of leaving the USA for any reason.  Now I'm going to Africa.

Last November I bought a .270 Deluxe Mark V.  (From Bud's for $1276. Crazy!)  This was for an upcoming cow elk hunt this November in New Mexico.  Then I stumbled on something called a 'cull hunt' on this forum.  Now I'm going.  First week in July.  Namibia for Gemsbok, Zebra, Impala, Springbok, and Kudu.  All for the hunt price I paid for a nice Pronghorn hunt in Wyoming last September.  My wife was all in until I mentioned the two grand airfare.  She loves me a lot.  Whew!

So, all you sages, please tell me about the pits I'm about to fall into.

Thanks

Good for you TN. Details are all the fun in putting a hunt like your's together. Logistics, Logistics, Logistics. Better find out whether you and the Misses will have to be inoculated for the Wuhan Virus though. Take a back up camera, cause we'll expect a lot of pictures. I'm sure you'll have more posts on this, but Congrats and Good Luck. Danno

 Amended: Bing! Theres no shot for the Wuhan Virus, but take all precautions necessary. Maybe it will be under control by then.

Be prepared to want to return again and again. Once is never enough!
I am beginning planning for my 3rd trip now. Plus I know what I want on my 4th and 5th already lol

awesome, I suggest, when your hunting other countries, is to just go with the flow, enjoy the experience of other cultures, and the animals. I like to fly in a few days early, just to get used to the time change and see a few things before the hunt, the same after the hunt, I stay a few days just to experience some new things. Take lots of pics and you will have a great time. 

I haven't hunted Africa yet, but it's on the list. I going to do another Ibex hunt in Turkey or a stan country before I turn 50 frist, then I'm going to try Africa.
