Back From Dries Visser Safaris
« on: July 26, 2011, 03:29:00 PM »
Did a 7 day hunt and all I can say is WOW.  The quality of the game and the PH's was fantastic.  Shoot a 25 1/2" impala and a 10 1/2" warthog with my longbow. Also shoot a Zebra and Gemsbuck with my Oneida. I would highly recommend this hunt. Will hunt again with them in '13. Everything  about this hunt is 1st class.

The 1st trip I made was terrible so really had to intention on going back to SA to hunt.  I met Anthony - PH for Dries Visser- at the Dallas Safari. He promised a better hunt - this was an understatement. I can't imagine anyone having a bad hunt with any of the PH's after hunting with Dries. I hunted with Nico - amazing how good he is on  judging animals.

Looks like you had a great hunt, you have some fine trophies. How about some specs on your equipment? Thanks..

Hey Forrest,  What were your average shot set ups?  Distance, recovery, etc.? I'm leaving in 14 days and am just looking for personal reassurance.  I really don't have any serious concerns....just had a bad practice session last night and it's messed with my head.
