Reflecting on my life, I realize that I have been on quite a journey with firearms. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to use a variety of pistols, rifles, shotguns, and even archery tackle, and I've truly enjoyed each and every one of them. These experiences have shaped my perspective and appreciation for the different types of arms I've encountered.

For those who know me well, it's no secret that my approach to hunting arms has always been practical and unsentimental. I've typically...

How many are watching the Winter Olympics?

Ice Dancing, aka Prancing I'm forced to watch.

The Downhill? Oh yeah! The wind whipping all over my body as I sail downhill at 90 miles an hour while eating a York Peppermint Patty! I'd do that.

Actually one of the reasons I planned to attend this year, but it’s...

Dear friends

In one month I will travel to Limpopo for my first Buffalo hunt. Being a certified AH addict I thought long and hard about where I wanted to go for this inaugural Buffalo Hunt. My hunting in Africa has been focused on the Eastern Cape region. I have enjoyed great plains games hunts and I felt I wanted to experience a Buffalo hunt.

Why hunt Buffalo. Why indeed. I don’t consider myself a thrill seeker. However, I have to challenge myself or I rapidly lose interest in life. So...
