Perhaps the best way for a Hunter to die.


Requiesce in pace.

Phil certainly earned his corn on that trip. Was that typical - the number of shots needed ?

Africa Hunting are hosting a raffle for his family as medical costs here apparently quite significant, as to be expected. The link is in the post above if it interests anybody to help them out

A real shame I met Phillip at the SCI show last year and was due to hunt with him in September 2022 for buffalo and tuskless elephant
