[8th Dwarf]

Good man, Neil!

Too Short

P.S.  Still no CITES permit in the mail.

hey thanks for the info guys. guess we'll have to wait and see what happens in the next few weeks.

[Jeff Sample]

Geeze Dwarf, Karen needs a CITES permit  to get you back in the US?

[8th Dwarf]

She also needs to bring me in wearing hand cuffs!  Because I am a LEGEND with bow and arrow, I am considered a deadly weapon!  (My wife might argue that during the rut I am a "dead weapon"!)

You started it!

Too F. Short (remember, the growth hormones had to go SOMEWHERE!)

8th,
Remember what they say about the fine line between legendary, and notorious! As for the selective effects of growth hormone, I seem to remember a tale of a little episode on the tarmac at Logan Airport that would suggest otherwise (eh, Big Boy?); draw length (or should I say relative draw length) and shoe size are probably a better indication of what you speak

the size of that place ,what difference does the law make? i mean whats the chance of bumping into a copper in the middle of no-where? its illegal here too but it still goes on!

Fish,
You seen the inside of a South African prison before?

as to the law, it's there to govern the actions of those who will not govern themselves

Who cares - b/c South Africa is all Game farms - if you;re going to africa, why hunt behind a high fence?

[chrisg]

Because there is precious little to hunt outside managed 'game farms'. Sure you can find big game elsewhere but it will take you several weeks and you wont get your hunt served up on a silver platter, and take home your 'list' packed and salted and prepared for shipping and customs etc inside two weeks.

Ethical hunter = doing the right thing even when no one is watching.
