In this bonus episode we will be talking about a topic that cannot be over-emphasized. Practice.

Since our recent episodes about safari and Africa we had a lot of inquiries about booking, travel logistics, and just some general guidelines about do's and don'ts for international hunts. Look, I get it. If you haven't done it, it can seem intimidating but with the right preparation it is very doable. I hope you find this helpful and if any of you have more questions or think I didn't cover something, reach out email us: thestlpod@gmail.com

In this special bonus episode we will dive into the untold hunting story of Lacey's Nyala from our recent safari in Zululand.

Jordan I just got back- as in, got back yesterday- from a week-long safari in Zululand with Garry Kelly Safaris. I am not exaggerating when we say it was a life-changing experience. In this episode we talk with Cullen Kelly and Murray Clayton, our to PHs (professional hunters) for this trip about some of the adventures and hunts we got into. The most important part of this conversation to me, however, is when we go over some of the biggest and common misunderstanding about African hunting, especially in South Africa. Whatever you're up to, I can promise this one is worth bending your ear. Heck, you may even hear Jordan talk about getting charged by an elephant. Check it out!
