Safari 101 Hunting Africa

"Your book has been a great pleasure to read and I cannot thank you enough for writing this book. It helped turn that spark into a flame and I cannot wait to book a hunt.

I have contacted Mr. Veldsman and he was extremely quick on the return e-mail.

I respect your take on the African game and I know that I want to take a zebra, blue wildebeest, and a kudu, but I can't decide on an eland or a waterbuck. Any recommendations?

I think I will go through Mr. Veldsman for the hunt because of the great experiences I've read about in your book."

"Thanks for the Safari 101 book. This is a much needed book, I have already read more then half of it and have learned a great amount of new information about planning my safari. I will be going in 2013.
 
Thanks again for the book."

"Just back from my first trip to Africa.  Your book was very helpful in the planning and spot on.  As a new graduate of Safari 101, I’m looking forward to Safari 201,  otherwise known as 'How To Pay For Your Second African Hunting Safari'.  Keep up the good work.“

"Thank you again for taking the time to speak with me. I received your book the same day we spoke. Read it this weekend. On one hand I was happy to see that I had figured out a few things before speaking with you and reading the book but on the other hand I wish I would have had it sooner as it would of saved me a boat load of time. It’s packed with a lot of good tips.  It is a great resource which I think any first timer should have. For that matter I’m keeping it handy for trip 2, 3 and 4. (fingers crossed)  Thanks again, and I hope to be in contact upon getting back from hunting with Shona. On that same note, best of luck on your trip."

"Extremely well done, great information and written in a form that's fun to read. GREAT COMBINATION and sometimes hard to pull off!
 
I particularly liked your section about "tipping", something that is seldom covered in other books on going to Africa or for that matter other hunts.
 
As mentioned it's extremely well written, contains a BUNCH of good information and written where it's fun to read. Also appreciated your comments on drinking while in camp... I too enjoy "sundowners" but I've seen some who have carried it too far and didn't enjoy the next morning...

Thanks for a great book!"

"After reading your book I felt like I had made a good friend. This book was especially helpful as my wife wants to accompany me on the trip. We are interested in touring in addition to the hunt. My wife is a non- hunter, but supports me in my love of the outdoors. My concern is that I wanted this trip to be equally enjoyable for her as I expect it to be for me. Your book eased my concern about her having an outstanding experience on the trip. A couple of other things that I felt I had picked up from your book is the need to: 1. have a plan [whether for gear to take, where you want to tour, and what animals you would like to harvest], 2.be flexible, 3.preserve the experience in a journal and by camera, 4. prepare by spending time on the firing range, 5. ask plenty of questions when planning the trip. Your book was very personable and is an easy read. I would recommend this book to anyone planning a first trip to Africa. Your book was a wealth of information to me."

 David: Just a quick note to thank you for the wonderful book on plains and dangerous game hunting in Namibia and Zimbabwe. You did an outstanding job and have become an authority on the subject. I especially liked the anecdotal stories and the way the book flowed as a result. Great job and thanks again. The book will be a valuable part of my hunting library!

David L. Brown was born in Michigan. He came to know Christ as his Savior as the result of a Sunday school teacher throwing away the liberal curriculum and taught through the book of Romans, sharing the Gospel. David attended a Michigan University then transferred to a Christian University and Seminary where he completed a Bachelor's Degree in Social Science and Theology. He holds a Master's Degree in Theology, and Ph.D. in History, specializing in the history of the English Bible. He has been married for 47 years to Linda, a young lady he met in his Baptist youth group in 1968. They have 13 grandchildren For the past 37 years he has been the Pastor of the First Baptist Church of Oak Creek, Wisconsin (an independent, fundamental, Baptist Church using the King James Bible & conservative music). Previous to that, he pastored an independent Baptist Church in Michigan for five years, was an assistant pastor for 4 years and he and his wife served as short term missionaries in Haiti. Dr. Brown is the president of the King James Bible Research Council, an organization dedicated to promoting the King James Bible and its underlying texts and other traditional text translations around the world in a solid and sensible way. He is also the president of Logos Communication Consortium, Inc., a research organization that produces a large variety of materials warning Christians of present dangers in our culture. He serves on the board of the Conversion Center, a ministry that seeks to reach Catholics for Christ. He serves on the executive board of the Alpha Women's Center of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, an organization dedicated to sharing Christ with women in crisis pregnancy situations and encouraging them not to have an abortion. Dr. Brown serves on the board of directors an historical organization, The Center for Study and Preservation of the Majority Text which is an organization dedicated to the scholarly study, research and preservation of Byzantine Greek New Testament Manuscripts. Dr. Brown is the Curator of the Biblical Heritage Archive Collection and regularly takes his rare Bibles, manuscript and artifact collection to Bible Believing Churches, colleges and seminaries and teaches on the history of our English Bible, showing how God has preserved His Word(s). He also serves as a consultant for individuals, museums, colleges, universities, and seminaries that desire to acquire or have collections of biblical manuscripts and Bibles. He is an antiquarian book dealer with contacts around the world. Dr. Brown has authored three books, the most recent, The Indestructible Book: Examining the History of Our English Bible as well as numerous booklets and pamphlets supporting the inspiration, preservation and translation of the Traditional texts of the Bible. Dr. Brown has had the opportunity to preach in Baptist churches, colleges, seminaries and conferences in the United States, United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, Germany, Israel, and the Caribbean. Why have we undertaken this project? The Geneva Bible is virtually unknown today, and yet it played a very important part in American History. It was our desire to modernize the spelling and define the archaic words so the reader could easily read and study it as our Puritan and Pilgrim Fathers did. If you compare it to the King James Bible, you will see it parallels very closely. That is because the same Hebrew/Aramaic and Greeks texts underlie both Bibles. Old Spelling - "Thy worde is a lanterne vnto my feete, and a light vnto my path." Psalm 119:105 Modern Spelling - "Thy word is a lantern unto my feet, and a light unto my path." Psalm 119:105

Mbogo, the Black Death, which manifests itself in the African Cape buffalo, now stood less than 12 feet away from me. The cow and calf were too close for me to have time to be scared. I would only have time to react on instinct if they came closer. That is the type of excitement that ev…
