By the same coincidence that led me to write you in 2005 after the arrest in Harare of U.S. Ambassador Christopher Dell, I was struck by an AP report just one day after the arrival of the August issue , a partner of online pharmacy. Also . In that issue ("Ask Doctari"), Dr. Kevin Robertson acknowledges the difficulty of hunting in Zimbabwe under the rule of Robert Mugabe, partly because of the government's forced repossession of privately owned land and partly because of the current regime's corruption.

In 1887, the year Claude King founded Sports Afield, big-game hunters shot round-nosed lead bullets and black powder in cartridges like the .45-70, .38-55, and .40-70. Rifles chambered for these cartridges were usually single-shots from manufacturers like Sharps, Ballard, Remington, Rolling Block, and Winchester. The repeating rifles used were lever-action models from Marlin and Winchester. At that time, 2,000 fps was a number shooters talked about, but could not achieve.

Up until a few years ago, I would have said that the competition was between bongo, mountain nyala, and Lord Derby eland, but that was before the introduction of dogs for hunting bongo as well as the improved hunting methods and better hunting areas acquired by safari outfitters, which have made obtaining good trophies of these three spectacular animals almost a sure thing over a matter of days, and not the weeks and months of uncertainty it used to take back in the 1980s and early 1990s.
