  • Candid PH interviews

    I loved the candid answers to the questions posed to those successful PH’s. I made my first venture to Africa in 2005 and have answered the call to return 8 more times. So much to explore, so little time. Keep up the good work.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep 114: Joshua Bailey: Buffalo Are Hard To Kill
Q: What's the mood like when you go after a wounded Buffalo?
Things get serious, everyone is on high alert trying to avoid a dangerous situation.
Ep 111: Hal Rose - Hunted South Africa 3 Times And Going Back For More
Q: What's sort of one piece of advice or one thing you'd say to somebody that's sitting on the fence?
You know, it is a long flight, the airplane ticket is not cheap, but you get so much proverbial bang for your buck going to South Africa or Namibia. So many people focus on that, but I would say it's the overall well-rounded experience of not only hunting but so many different things to do.
Ep 109: Returning Guest Aaron Lassila - Hunting The Free State of South Africa
Q: Would you do things a little bit differently now for your second trip?
I would probably want to give somebody else a chance.
Ep 107: Peyton & Roan - My First Deer
Q: What advice would you give a family considering taking their kids on a hunting trip to South Africa?
I think it's a wonderful, beautiful place. It will be one in a lifetime opportunity, and they will enjoy it very much.
Ep 107: Peyton & Roan - My First Deer
Q: What would you say if someone says that they don't like hunting, that it's not right?
My friends say that hunting is wrong. They're just saying that they don't prefer to go hunting. I tell them, like I've said before, about how it's not really like taking out all the good things, it's not murdering.
