DOUBLE BULL: Once again less than 20 minutes, a freshly set up Double
Bull Matrix kept me from being noticed by the trophy animals of S. Africa.
The brown deception pattern blew the African's PH's minds. They could not
believe it camo'd well without brushing it in. Although in some cases we thought
it was necessary. I have taken all but one animal of over 40 game animals since
Sept. last year in the Matrix. They just work. DOUBLE BULL
BOWTECH:, I just like the word, love the bow. Now my binary cam
DEFENDER, set at around 56# has taken 18 game animals in 18 shots. Never
has this happened to me before and I am not a great shot. I just have faith in
my experience and BOWTECH. This is the first cam bow that doesn't buck, hand
shock, have a bad valley or rough break point. The bow is just sweet, smooth
and very fast. BOWTECH
MAGNUS BROADHEADS: I had the privilege of testing the brand new MAGNUS
BUZZCUT broadheads in 100 gr. The 4 blade head shot through a giant Waterbuck, a
Kudu and broke the front leg and buried into the lungs of a zebra. Deadly and
true of flight. I love them, nothing ever goes wrong. MAGNUS
NIKON:, Fortunately I had packed two of each of my very important things like Nikon
binoculars and rangefinders because they had been stolen from my bag when I got
it a day late. Good news I had a back up pair in my pack. NIKON
I swear this is true, Adriaan Rall, my PH on my Nyala hunt assured me that
we would have not recovered my Nyala if it were not for the exceptional clarity
of Nikon's new 8X. Too add to the significant accolades, my PH, Rickos DeVailie
in the Free State, read out rangefinder readings over 20 times from 18-55 yards
before I made lethal shot on my 36"+ Gemsbok bull. The shot would have not been
made on a constant moving animal without the precision Nikon Rangefinder.
CX MAXIMA ARROWS: What can I say about the known consistency and accuracy of
Carbon Express Maxima arrows. You won't see me shooting anything else. They
rule. CARBON EXPRESS
TRUFLIGHT FEATHERS: Keep the perspective or the flight of the arrow
correct. I love their barred turkey feathers. Never plan on shooting a plastic vane.
Neither Robin Hood nor Fred Bear didn't, and neither do I. TRUFLIGHT
EASY-EYE: Thanks to Nick and Pat's Easy Eye wraps I was able to
find most of my arrows since they were pass throughs. They add a
distinctive look, a class look and a good looking look to my arrows and
they work to help find errant and pass through arrows. EASY-EYE
WILDLIFE RESEARCH CENTER: Part of getting close to wild game is
scent or lack of it. Wildlife Research soaps, Scent Killers Scent
Eliminator and potent scents go on every hunt with me. Have for years
because they work. WildLife Research Center
SKB Cases: Without their tough construction and built in security I would've lost everything from
airport thieves or baggage gorillas. SKB CASES
AFRICAN BOWHUNTER MAGAZINE: Good friends of mine and the boys of
BOWHUNTING.NET these men, Rean and Adriaan are the friends of bowhunting. You
will never regret subscribing to African Bowhunter for you will go there
someday. editor@africanarcher.com
THAWNE SAFARIS: I could have NEVER imagined seeing this much trophy game
in 5 trips to Africa. This is the place. No doubt whatsoever. You get what you pay
for and much more when you book a hunt with Adriaan for THWANE or any Africa game animal. The man
performs. thwane@lantic.net
BOWHUNTING.NET I want to thank Robert and Rich for putting up with
me and some of my stuff over the years. I have a lot of independent
projects which will cause my contributions to BOWHUNTING.NET to go on
hold for 06. Be back when I'm older and wiser! Thanks so much!
Jaque, Rickos, Corne and Cactus Jack for the great hunt with Nyatti and the
Kandiri bowhunting lodge in the Free State.
