LAST EDITED ON Mar-14-17 AT 06:18AM (MST)[p]Hi to all,

I am new to this forum and what I have seen in this section of the forum is that some guy's do still have a lot to ask about hunting Africa. Well, I will gladly help as far as possible...

From your signature line I assume you are the same person who refused to return a hunt deposit to a dying man back in 2012? Patrick Reynecke from Bushwack Safaris?

ouch that hurt. That will follow him the rest of his life and cost him way more then that refund would have by now.

I remember this from when it was first reported on AR. It certainly colored my opinion toward the OP and not in a positive way. With so many good options out there, I'd be hard pressed to find a reason to hunt with a safari operator who took a hard line with a dying man. Your mileage may differ.

Yes, this is me.

and

there was 2 sides to the story.

billc...AR is lost without you! Perhaps you and Pieter must stop by for a drink to see how a proper outfitter business works. Drinks will be on me...

I still use AR and Ah and enjoy them both how about you? Have been on this site for over 6 years also and you got another great welcome over the same issue. My point was maybe it would have been better to return the deposit. Don't have time to stop when I am over to busy hunting and we have over 30 bookings booked for this year and all ready booking hunts for 2018.

Why would you say so my friend? Because you ONLY know 1 side of the story? Please make a turn by me and I can show you the real story, not hear say...hop in your or Pieters vehicle, you just about 10 min. drive from me.

...have over 30 bookings booked for this year and all ready booking hunts for 2018....

Good for you, but what has this to do with me?

Steer clear of this Bushwack loser. There are plenty of upstanding and honest outfitters over in SA than to have to deal with dishonest, low class outfitters like this one. He doesn't post over on AH anymore, or AR either because everyone knows him, his antics, and bottom feeder reputation.

Bushwack:

I have the opinion of the dying gentleman who sent me the PM on AR. I absolutely have no sympathy for your business. You had several chances to save face and you refused to do so.

All you had to do was admit fault and make it right.

AH and AR are to emotional about things and many, many Outfitters, PH's and hunters with experience left because of this...Just see the threat about Mark Sullivan that currently goes about on AR, even the owner of the site can not control himself...remember the same story with Martin Pieters Safaris a while back. You are probably under age or to old to know what is actually going on around you to post constantly un-useful ##### over there...

Now rather to attack people like yourself with NO EVEDENCE on what actually happened that day, I would shut up and go one with your life please!

And for the record, I don't hide under a non-deplume name.

Your above quote and callous argument only furthers my opinion. I am glad that you are telling me "to get a brain". That will surely earn respect, I am sure.

And yes, he did message me and given your replies, I need no further evidence. But, to each their own. I am certainly not worried weather people agree with me or not.

You have your opinion, good for you...so then write something constructive please, like why the anti's are winning against our hunters...

"You have your opinion, good for you...so then write something constructive please, like why the anti's are winning against our hunters..."

Fair enough.

IMO, the Anti's are winning mostly, due to the perception of the lying media. In addition, the world is/has turned into a Liberal, Socialist, culture. These people scream the loudest and receive most of the attention and influence the vote of the undecided.

Although I do not agree with your business practices, I will say no more about it. I do feel bad for what you are dealing with politically in your country. I wish success to all of the honest hardworking outfitters in RSA.
