The season is underway and ours is just about to begin. Today we took a few of the long guns that will  travel to Mozambique and dialed em' in. Winchester, Model 70, Safari Express in .375 H&H and a interesting German made Simson, 500 Nitro Express, double.

Big Tusker - Tete, Mozambique - 2012

For many big game hunters, dangerous game is the pinnacle of our sport. The Big Five holds its position as the pinnacle of that genre and at the top of that list is usually the African Elephant (loxodonta africana.) Just two seasons into our area in Tete, Mozambique it's obvious that years of poaching has taken its toll on the plains  game. The Elephant however seem to have eluded this unfortunate reality and are thriving, much like the days of old. This bruiser was taken a few weeks back, as we near close of the 2012 season. A nice, old bull with proper teeth.
