[BOWUNTR]

That's real cool... especially you lying down behind the little thing. The baboon is freaky... and I am speachless on the ostrich. Very cool. Congratulations.

Those mountains are not kind... I hope you are kidding... Ed F

Nasty bird killer!

No mambas? They are the ones that would scare me

 

[Ambush]

Love the upland game, how tough is a ostrich compared to the mammals?

 

[bearclaw]

How'd I miss this?

Awesome trip amigo! Sounds like heaven.

No Mamba's but they are there. They have Black Mamba's, Spitting Cobra's, Puff Adders, and the Twig Snake, all HIGHLY POISONOUS. This time of year it is just starting to warm up so you don't have much run ins with them. In a couple of months you have to be careful. They had a video a client took last year that was pretty interesting! a snake crawled thru the window of the blind so the hunter jumped out the door and called his PH. When the PH came he went in and looked and saw the snake was coiled up between the wall and the cooler, so he took one of the clients arrows and started stabbing at it but missed the head, thinking it was just a regular nonvenomous snake, but....the snake opened his mouth and it was black! which is a black momba! the PH dove out of the window of the blind while the 10' Black Momba was going ape sh&t in the blind! He grabbed his rifle out of the truck and shot it. Scared the sh&t out of everyone, but the client was laughing pretty hard at the PH as he dove out the window! After everything calmed down the client went back to sitting at the blind saying the chance of that happening again were pretty slim, and he wanted to re watch the video a few times while waiting for the next animal!

The Puff Adder that Doug shot, they took and burned, since they said the dogs would chew on it and that would kill them!

Hatchet...do you hate Africa now? lol

 

[BRET]

Ambush....not sure which "tough" you mean, but the arrow flew thru no problem, clipped the heart and the meat was like real good beef, actually very tender and tasty. So good I think I will look for some of this bird here in the states!

 

[mjb]

That's what I'm talking about........mamba no fun they are aggressive and will come after you real fast!

Good to know go early and less snakes!

 

[socal duckie]

Chapstick wrote about the mamba in just about everyone of his books..... He hated them!!!

 

[El Maton]
