The annual Safar Recap Episode is always one of my favorite shows each year. This was my 8th trip to South Africa to hunt with John X Safaris. My longtime friend and PH Carl Van Zyl, Henry and I recorded this one at the John X Safaris Woodlands Camp on South Africa’s beautiful Eastern Cape. What an amazing experience and blessing it was to share a safari with Henry. Highlights from the conversation include:

  • Wide eyed expectations
  • The first animal to go into the salt (same animal Cable shot on the first day of his first safari)
  • Stomach bugs and belly crawls
  • Learning how to stalk an animal
  • The warthog that wasn’t
  • 6.5 Creedmoor dealing death pills
  • The 4 kill day
  • hiccups with travel and how to avoid complete disaster
  • Henry’s take on the food
  • Hunters giving back and a soccer match to remember
  • All smiles on a South African varmint hunt
